He/she makes you feel valued and significant, despite the faults and failings that you know you have. He/she wants to make you feel wanted, dedicated to and captivated at the same time. He/she doesn't want to make you feel less than, or inadequate or lacking in any way.
My W "made" me feel that way for many, many years before her mlc. Then she withdrew that in mlc. I have since learned to provide that for myself. So, where does that (those feelings of worth, forgiveness, not lacking, etc) come from originally, her or other people, or me??
