[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Years ago, he did not and it made me so sad on top of other intense life stressors. People go through periods and if you have a lot to juggle, caring for your partner might be less of a priority. I dont think its a set personality style or skill. It does make an intense difference for mental health though to know you are appreciated, like in any relationship, romantic or not.[/quote]
Do you also tell him he is cute, hot?[/quote]
I do, because he is. I told him often when he seemed blind to me too. That was so upsetting though, I think I withdrew and started seeing him with a more critical disapproving eye. I mean we were not in a good place for a good year or two. I dont know what made the turn around but it was years of little steps building back up of learning to handle stress and kids growing up. We both compliment each other now but its flipped where I used to do it more, he does now and I appreciate more sides to him and let him know.

I dont believe this "people never change" business because we both changed for the worst (from being a loving team to antagonists) and probably blame each other for the worst of those times and then later changed for the better where we will focus on how each other is doing and will respond in kind. We're a team again and maybe in 5-10-20 years we'll be bickering more again. I dont know what will come but its good now.[/quote]
