RE: "Is there a way to convince my boyfriend to put more effort into our relationship?"

in #advice7 years ago (edited)

The only way to cause the situation to change is to first accept it and fully live with it. Meaning, accept your partner as he is.

I couldn’t agree with you more. Not that I’m lazy, I would say I’m the opposite. Sometimes I work and do too much. I always have to find things to do. I don’t think this guy is lazy, he works until late night, how could he be lazy? He is just tired, he is just a human. There is a huge difference between being lazy and tired. I do feel for this guy, because I know how women are sometimes. At some point I stopped trying to understand them, it would take too much energy to do that. If he loves her, he will eventually notice she is not happy and will do something special for her. If she keeps trying to push him to do things, he would feel forced and at the end neither of them will enjoy it. I do love my wife unconditionally, but if she tried to force me to be someone I’m not, it wouldn’t make me feel good at all.

Women are easy to understand if you see them as human beings who reflect you.
What do you want? to be loved. So women want the same. The difference is that men, in general, gave up on their women, who, on their part are too focused on the outside and therefore can't bring themselves to be loved.
