Relationship challenges

[IrvineFriend]

Ladies,

How in the world are you there for your significant other when you're barely hanging on yourself? I've been snippy, stressed, feel ugly, exhausted, etc. and really get frustrated over everything. As a result, my boyfriend and I called it quits. I have no sympathy for a nightly erection when I feel too tired to even shower post chemo weekend. I feel selfish not wanting to deal with another human being's needs and feelings when I feel so crappy (and I think he's insensitive to my perceived bigger issues). I guess it takes a special person to hang in there with us. Personally, I think it's easier to be alone but then again, he's not the person I thought he was.
