Am I being defensive?
My boyfriend keeps telling me I'm being defensive. I do get a bit upset when he keeps pointing out small mistakes I've made such as leaving the kitchen faucet on the sprayer and not on pour. It tends to get on my nerves. My best response is to pause and not say anything because if I do I am being defensive. I say just "switch it over". I know I can't change him but this happens quite frequently and it wears on me. I'm new to All Anon and am trying my best not to react but it is so hard. Any suggestions.
