I know he loves me but he has such a poor way of showing it or rarel ever showsgonna it and then I start to question his love. Is there anyway to change that? Or is this something that I just have to accept that is the way he is? Reply to this Question Share |

Have you told him how you feel?
How do you know he loves you? what behaviors do you base this on?
sometimes I think we stay with partners and convince ourselves it's a good relationship and they love us because it's what we want and it's easier than finding someone that actually does love us.

Talk to him, tell him how you are feeling.

I'm in the process of seeing if mine can be "trained" to give me the care I need. We've talked about it at great lengths. Little by little over a LONG period of time, he seems to be doing more of the little things that make me happy (I'm not someone who NEEDS anything like bling or other stuff). But I do need to know I'm appreciated and thought about. If you don't mind talking with him about it, tell him what would help to make you happy. But also don't spend too much time on it. If I wasn't already so far into this relationship with recent positive changes, I'd probably be more apt to find someone who doesn't hold back how he feels about me. I still believe if you love someone, it should flow very naturally and obvious to them. But I also make lists of the things he DOES do that show his love and care. Sometimes that helps. Good luck! :D
