I set clear, respectful expectations that I just want to be treated like a girlfriend with respect and support and I don’t get his support. He gets “stressed out” from small rants that barely affect me and from my own anxiety and stress that mind you, HE SAID wanted to always be the person there for me and comfort me but gets stressed out from my stress which isn’t anything bad and not very often. And HE is the one crying because I said that I don’t feel the basic level of support that I want.
Honestly it sounds like you aren’t being treated well, not even as a girlfriend but this behavior isn’t even acceptable from a friendship point of view. You’ve done everything you can here from the sounds of it. I normally hesitate in suggesting breaking up, but this relationship is not good.
