Red, good for you for taking action instead of running away from those problems, I know personally how much easier it is to just turn a blind eye, or sleep through the problems and pretend that they are not there!
I think one of the biggest things in relationships is to just be honest with each other, and you really have to let the other person know that it's not their fault that you are feeling the way you are (unless it is, in which case that's a relationship you don't want to be with). But just be honest about your feelings, and thoughts.
You can do this :)
