Unbalanced effort

Ka

I’ve been in a relationship with this man for nearly 9 months now. I love him and I know he truly loves me. However, I believe that I always put way more effort than he does. In mostly everything, too. I have to drive hours every week to see him. He never offers to come to my house. I always send him cute cards and have surprises for him. He doesn’t acknowledge them. We go out with his friends and he doesn’t try to include me in the conversation. I know he means well but sometimes he doesn’t even make an effort.

Does anyone have any advice or ways to approach him about this?
