after a few minutes of him attempting to make small talk, i tried to state a concern. I said 'i just don't feel like you're genuinely interested in fixing things'. He responded 'I need a vacation'. I said 'I just thought I would say how I felt and see if you had anything to say'. Him: 'I'm tired'. 'I'm sorry you're tired'. 'No you're not, you never cared'. 'I'm not going to let you do this to me. I do care'. 'No you don't'. 'Stop putting your stuff onto me, youre the one who doesn't care, you're projecting onto me'. 'I'll talk to you later'. 'Well, maybe you won't'. Click.
You stated your concern, he then tried to put you on the defensive in order to avoid responding to you. This is a classic manipulative tactic which suggests you are correct that he is not very interested in fixing things.
