It isn't uncommon for a person to focus on themselves ~ and the good things that they do. Sometimes, simply reminding them of little things that you have done helps put things into proper perspective.

I say sometimes because some people aren't willing to accept that others give to the relationship. If you're in a relationship with a person who is unwilling to accept your perspective, chances are that the relationship won't last long.

Most people will accept the reminder though. That's okay. We all have days where we feel unappreciated and as though we do all of the work. We make the decision on whether or not we are willing to continue in the relationship/s. Some people are willing to do all of the physical work, as long as the other gives in emotionally. Others aren't. It's an individual decision that we make.

He's plenty engaging And can be very loving and attentive, but when he has to have his way, he has to have his way and nothing is ever his fault. He says he loves me so much but he really doesn’t know how to show it, or make me want to keep on loving him..

The part above is disturbing to me. If your bf is as extreme as you've described, I'd seriously recommend getting professional help. These 2 lines sound a lot like my brother, who has always had a tendency to become extremely angry and violent. If your bf is this way, chances are strong that he will not lose this tendency. Stay safe!

Hope my post isn't too wacky (or scary) for you ~ and you understand where I'm coming from. Unfortunately, there are always extremes. And it's awfully tough to know exactly how strongly your bf behaves when he has to have his way. If the anger seems a little excessive, but it isn't openly hateful and angry, it's still worth talking with a professional T about.

Best wishes to you!
