I just broke up with my boyfriend today and it was one of the hardest things I ever did. I feel like the reason we split too was a rather dumb one but it was something that we just couldn’t seem to remedy. I broke up with him over the difference in our temperature preferences. Now before you think that’s crazy let me explain the situation a little bit, my boyfriend and I had never been able to agree on what the temperature in the house should have been when we lived together. In my opinion that was a bad sign in itself, but we tried to work through it together, unfortunately that didn’t work. My boyfriend was very demanding that he had to have that house set exactly to 85 degrees. It was off by even one degree he would absolutely lose his mind, he would get red in the face and start screaming and yelling. He told me I wasn’t allowed to touch the thermostat, the same thermostat that I helped pay for. He tried to take my temperature preferences into consideration by saying that he would get me a window air conditioning system for my bedroom if I thought it was too hot, but he told me straight that he had to have his temperatures his way. It only got worse from here is he became more and more demanding on other things as well and I decided it was best to just cut it off. I didn’t need that kind of from him and I was done putting up with it. It sounds ridiculous on the surface to break up over a difference and temperature preferences, but when you look below the surface you’ll find that there was actually much more to it than that.
