My Most Important Week Yet

[labug]

You're so right, having just enough communication is key. And independent women don't want someone to fix things just to listen and respect the difficulty, maybe toss around ideas.

Did you know her love languages then? I say this because my H and I were completely off in this respect. I did things I would want done for me, he did the same; we were at cross-purposes.

He would buy me earrings for Christmas, I have a million earrings so really didn't need more and those he chose were so NOT ME. I would scratch my head and think, "Huh, does this guy not even know what I like?"

I would handle that differently now.

This was a similar dynamic in my M:
But I did, which she admits even by her now-warped logic, make her feel like the center of the universe. She knew that I'd do anything for her, I constantly told her I loved her, complimented her and tried to do little things to show her how much she meant to me... But in the end, I kept doing THOSE things to try to fix any issues that we had... I thought that by being sweeter, by complimenting her more, by doing more little things, that I could just make her unhappiness disappear.

And she got surlier and surlier because you just weren't getting it?

Have a great day, Alk.
