I love him but.....

Michelle

I love him. I want things to work. But he can be super in considerate. I don't want to be the nagging/fussing girlfriend so sometimes I just keep quiet. I often feel unappreciated/under appreciated. I feel I cater to him more than he caters to me. We have had numerous convos. Mutually promised to improve on things but yet improvement is slight if any. I try to keep communication open so that we can express what we need from each other. But I feel like he hears my needs but isn't listening to what I need. I don't feel heard. I get this is new to him. The other women he has dated only liked to drink, party and then nothing else. I am more family oriented. Raising two children, coaching recreational basketball, volunteering at my kids' school and keeping them involved in things. But that's who I am. I don't drink. I don't party like that. I like romantic dates and just being together soaking each other in. I like going out. But it seems he is disinterested in the things that make me who I am. I am goal oriented and driven. I make time for him regardless of what I have going on. But I don't feel like a priority to him. Instead of feeling like a partner I feel like his servant there to meet his needs. I feel unsupported and my feeling disregarded at times. Just wanted to vent
