Keep in mind that when someone vents to you about the negatives, it usually means they are comforted by talking to you. They aren’t trying to bring you down or ask for solutions, they’re trying to recharge from your presence. You don’t have to solve his problems or offer any advice. Simply listen to him and say “i’m sorry your day was rough. Do you feel better now?” and then vent about your day to him. It goes both ways

and that’s all completely fine. and i always let him know that he can vent to me. but when he’s everyday, every time we text, and then contradicts me for complaining, and doing the same thing that he does; vent about work and about my day

Something you can do if her seems to vent for too long is to set an example. Take the time to talk about your day and what you’re struggling with. When you’re done venting, say something like “thanks for listening

just break up with him at that point, no one wants a partner who describes not hearing from them as “blissful”
