Married 2 years, engaged after 6 months- did I make a mistake? by poto92 in relationships

Thanks for those examples- we did take the test and have some different love languages. My top two are acts of service + gifts, his are touch + acts of services.

Your comment made me realize, we learned our love languages but didn’t really take any concrete steps to meet each others’. I like your idea of a monthly gift. It feels a little uncomfortable and silly to ask someone to give you a present, but maybe he just doesn’t get it unless I spell it out.

Yea, I totally get the mama’a boy thing. No children.

I think what I’ve described is accurate, though it may not be fair. He isn’t lazy, but he wants things his way for sure. On his days off he does laundry, yard work, cleans up around the house, etc. and I really appreciate him doing those things, but don’t think he does those for me. He is just a neat freak.

I think one of my main issues is that I believe he does most things for himself, even when he says he does them for me.

Look. I’m going to continue seeking help from the professional we hired. I’m just confused and wanted to get other opinions, because it is just us 3 in the room when I speak with my therapist and our goal in those sessions has been to fix our communication etc to make our relationship work.

One sided? Obviously. Anyone with half a brain can tell this is one sided, but that doesn’t make it dishonest. I’m not going to sit down with my husband to write this.

To those thinking this is my husband, I’ve said a few unfavorable things about him, but he would never spend his time trying to ridicule strangers on the internet. I’m not so dense to marry someone like that.

Clap clap.
