Dear Dr. Chloe,
I am writing to you because I am in a difficult situation and I need your help. I am a 25-year-old woman who has been in a relationship with my boyfriend for 5 years. We are very much in love, but we have been having some problems lately. My boyfriend has been working long hours, and he is stressed out about his job. He has been taking it out on me—snapping at me and being critical of everything I do. I have tried to talk to him about it, but he just gets defensive and says that I’m being too sensitive.
