My gf texts me every afternoon just to check in and ask how my day is going.

I really appreciate it, but she knows very well how completely miserable I am at my job. I usually just give some generic middle of the road response and move the convo the elsewhere.

I'm super tempted to just be honest with her and let her know that I love that she checks in or just wants to talk, but that it ends up being work keeping up the act that things are even tolerable most days. Like, I hate every second of being at my job and she knows that.

Too autistic? Just accept the kindness and let it go?

>Too autistic? Just accept the kindness and let it go?

Yes and yes.

>I hate every second of being at my job and she knows that.
That's why she's texting you. She wants to brighten your day by loving you. Try to let yourself be happy, even if you hate your job.
>>
why not actually tell the truth about how your day is going retard

you think she goes out of her way to do this in order to just get a bs "fine thanks" response back? She wants to know how you're actually feeling. She wants to be there for you.

Yeah just to her that is literally why she's calling. Just don't be a completely over dramatic retard about it. Talk about the shit that is bothering you. Just don't repeat yourself or get ragey. Have a conversation.

The problem is she doesn't really understand it, to be honest

Her current job is the only job she's ever had. It's a super sweet banking gig that was literally handed to her out of college by some friends of her folks' which pays like its for someone 3-5 years into their career, not just starting. She really likes it. I've had a bunch of jobs over the years with varying degrees of satisfaction and varying levels of freedom to just move on to something else.

Having broached the subject with her multiple times, she's just kind of offers a generic showing of sympathy and moves on ("Awww I'm sorry. Tomorrow will be better!") It's why she asks everyday; she's never hated what she's doing with her life (loved school, loves her job) and doesn't get that it's annoying to be reminded of that fact by people asking about it.

You're gonna get real sad and worried when she stops asking you how you're doing. Even more so when she starts cheating on you because you're not paying attention to her.
Just talk to her like a normal person you dummy

You have a job and gf fuck you asshole. You doing better than most and you ain't happy baw.
>>
>>18233804
Yes, it turns out people still have problems even when their life is better than yours. This is a board to ask for advice about those problems.
>>
>>18233819
Hahaha the statement says he's doing well. What's his real problem?
>>
>>18233831
Which statement?

The OP post is all about how he hates every second of being at his job and he is miserable there. That's not "doing well"

His GF could be amazing outside of work, but he'd still have to go to work and be miserable there.
>>
If you want to complain about your day do it in person where she can be supportive.

Important : youre using this as an outlet for greif not anger. Avoid coming off as angry or annoyed.

Sometimes we need a little sympathy.

Never take your partner for granted.

Tell her basically what you told us:

That you love her, and that you know she knows your miserable at work, and that even though you might sound apathetic when you answer back, you truly appreciate when she checks in, because it makes you feel truly cared about--and you just wanted to let her know that.

If you want to tell her more, that's up to you, because only you know what type of person she is.

I will say that one of the most common complaints from girls in their relationships, is that their guys stone wall way too much and they feel like they get shut out.
