My boyfriend and I are already on the rocks.  We've been together for 12months, and the Corona pandemic, has really helped us see that we're just not compatible. There is 1 odd behavior that he exhibited to me over the past year, that I don't understand and hope someone could shed some light on? We were friends for 2 years, before we dated. We're avid road cyclists, and he would offer to fix my bike for me, when I needed a new cassette, etc, and would get it done fast. Once we began dating though, his reliability, in helping me fix anything went way down. The derailleur went on my bike in July, and I went without my good road bike for 6 weeks, in the middle of cycling season. He assured me that he wanted to get it done, and kept apologizing for not doing it. Meanwhile, all of my cycling buddies (90% men), kept getting defensive when I told them that he still hadn't fixed it, saying that I need to get my bike to a real mechanic and dump him, because that long of a wait was unacceptable. Only after I had literally started dragging my bike out the door 3 times, to take to a shop, did my BF actually get to fixing it.  There have been a few additional cases of something similar happening since, which he just never gets around to for me.  If a stranger or a friend asks for help, due to his mechanic experience, he gets it done right away, just as he did for me before we dated. What causes him to drag his feet, like this, for the person who he says is the most important to him (me)? 

We did get close for my birthday but now he acting weird but still text me..

What's their problem? Why aren't they being polite? What is it about my actions that would cause them to react in such a negative way? What is it about it that angers them so much? @Donnie Porko, No, no, no, no, no....... This took place over a year ago. I kept pushing my co-workers' totes (the shipping containers made to put items to be distributed to stores throughout America) and eating in my father's car.

I would love to work on cars but this is the sole reason why I don't hold a job in a tire lube, car shop because all that they hire in them are fratboys! It is a concentration of arrogant rude guys that usually are athletic and love using the word gay in their sentences. They usually would get mad and punch a wall. They are hyperagressive and loves getting into fights. You just walk by them and they'd 'call you out' or try to pick on you or come onto you in a coercive way, as if they have a dislike for you or something of that nature.  They carry all sorts of bullying attitudes. Why do tire lubes and body shops only hire these kind of people?
