He did 3 tours in Iraq and has PTSD and TBI. He can sometimes get touchy ab little things, like if I'm not as readily available via phone, etc. He said he wonders if I'm even "in it" and that it feels like he doesn't even have a gf at times, or at least not one who cares. I said "sorry babe, I've been busy and didn't see your call, let's talk now", and now he's not responding.
We're long distance for the next year while he attends the fire academy out of state and are often on opposite schedules. However, I would say we're doing really really well considering. We talk as often as we can and text every day. I'm going out there to visit him for Thanksgiving. Also he has a care package headed his way that he should be receiving in the next couple days (but has no idea yet).
But I notice he gets moodier and more insecure ab me and us around certain times like Veterans Day, the holidays, etc.
Aside from the phone thing, the other day he asked if I was talking inappropriately to anyone or if there's anything he should know about (there 100% is not). I asked if there's anything I should know ab, and he said not at all. So that was that.
I just find it odd and wonder if there's a link between these holidays and his moodiness or suspiciousness towards me.
Also how can I respond? I don't want to reward his negative behavior but also want to try to be caring and understanding. I just wish he wouldn't stir the pot when it really doesn't need to be stirred!
