my boyfriend is always depressed

hi i just registered i'm warning u about my english its not gonna be perfect coz its not my first language anyway

i'm 21 year old girl & he's 26, we've been together for over a year now
the problem is that when he feels down he starts to treat me like $#%^ n it hurts so much i cry everytime he gets in a bad mood, a lot of nights i cry my self to sleep, n what sucks is that when he tells me his problem i donno how to respond i dont know how to make him feel better i'm a quiet kinda girl, but a lot of other times he doesnt tell me whats wrong with him! when i ask him he says " i donno i'm just feeling down " n when i try to lightin the air he tells me to ###$ off or blames me for silly things n say that i made him feel like $#%^, i donno wat to do this relationship is really wearing me out n i'm starting to get tired of it, i really love him so much n i cant imagine my life without him but its killin me i donno wat to do with him! i believe we cud end up together but i'm afraid this problem will remain n will never go away i tried breaking up with him once but i couldnt i cant leave him! i need help please tell me what to do??

Hi, j_64! Maybe he needs to deal with his depression and then think about being in a relationship. You don't deserve to be treated like this and you can't let it go on forever. Have you tried to get him to deal with it?

hi jasmin
well when i tell him its hurting me so much n u shud deal with it, he says that's the way i am n i'm not gonna change :\

It sounds like he doesn't respect your wishes or feelings.
