Yeah. I mean, he does whatever he can to help me financially ( and I DO appreciate that tremendously!), but he acts as though that should be enough to show he cares and that he loves me. He just doesn't get that women are more emotional. We need things of an intimate nature, like time, attention, compassion, understanding, listening. You CAN'T BUY those things! And they are just as important! One can find a roommate to spilt the bills with, or you could have meaningless sex. But it's the more meaningful, deep connections that make great relationships! THAT'S what I want and need in my life! So far my crazy episodes haven't driven him away, so he's got some sort of tolerance because I've REALLY put him to the test a LOT I know! But there's that one thing missing!
