being dramatic?

I rub my baby dads back almost every night. These last 4 nights for sure. I have been asking him for a back/neck rub for a few days now, he says ok, before bed. Then when bed time comes he's out like a light. Or if I can get him to, its half ***, and for a minute or two I have been having terrible lower back, hip/pelvis, pain.. it gets me upset, very sad to. To the point where I want to go home.
.. Is it just my hormones?

I have asking my bf to my back for a week he yes but never does it. When he ask me i am willing to do it. Men just dont understand the stress our bodies are going through but they work hard and want us to be the loving home bodies even with being pregnant like we arent going throuh change. Men are nuts.

Its not just that.. But he's been realy selfish. I mean I would love some time on ME, since I am preg. I guess I just expected more support and helpfulness than he's giving. Buy like I asked, not sure if its just me being sensative..

I have this exact same issue with my bd. Yeah I would stop doing it for him and then when he asks, do a half *** job like he does to you. 2 wrongs don't make a right, but sometimes you have to get a point across somehow.

Yeah your hormones will make you upset over little things, but I know why it upsets you because it upsets me too. A relationship is supposed to be give and take, its a 2 way street. Btw I think the spa thing may be a good idea.

Rubbing a back is one thing, translating it into proof that all is lost in the relationship is a rather large jump.  Do you think this is true from other proofs, or is it all hanging on the backrub/ not backrub evidence?  Try not rubbing his back any more so you won't feel victimized, and get yourself a nice hot-water bottle to lean on, and try to stop being sad about tiny stuff.  If it is in fact big stuff (in other words, you are realizing that it is simply one of many ways things are wrong in the relationship) then you have some decisions to make.
