Relationship issues

Valerie
So my bf is always telling me where I need to grow in. Lol he says he's helping me but sometimes I feel like he's nit picking me or trying to mold me to something he wants to be with. I could be seeing it wrong I guess. He a pretty genuine man and treats me very nicely. I mean do men genuinely care about your growth as a person and wants to help? Do I express my irritation with it or jus accept his help and work on the things he points out.?
