<human>: Yesterday, my boyfriend confessed to me that he feels like he can't be himself around me because there are quite a few topics that are kind of triggering for me, and that I get upset when those topics are brought up.

This is true, but I regardless I feel absolutely terrible. He was very upset when he told me this confession. He also said that he only feels like he can be silly around me and only tell jokes, and that he feels like he can't be serious with me. He also said that him bringing up a triggering topic and me getting upset over it happens "every time" we see each other.

I've never noticed this before. He's been serious with me in the recent past and this hasn't happened "every time" (he was exaggerating a little bit) but still. I feel terrible. And I felt even worse after the conversation was over because, for the rest of the day, he reverted back to how he was before this conversation. Every time he acted silly or something from then on, I felt kind of sad for him because it reminded me of how he's covering things up.

What should I do to solve this??

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
