The possibility exists that this is just how your partner is, and there isn't much you can do to change him.

On the flip side, I'm VERY emotional, can be high energy at times.....and this doesn't work for a lot of people. I have just as much right to ask them to change to be what I want as they have to ask me to change to be what they want.

You may have to just accept that this is how your partner is....not everyone can fulfill our needs.
