@melissadivaristhompson: Your partner can love you, try their best, and still not meet your needs. 💔 It doesn’t make them bad, and it doesn’t make you ungrateful. It just means you both need to be honest about whether this relationship can truly sustain you. Sometimes love isn’t about effort—it’s about fit. #relationships #relationshipadvice #datingtips #couplestherapy #relationshiptok
Sometimes it’s not their best, they’re just lazy and complacent

And then I’m gonna be the bad guy when I break up with him because “his best isn’t good enough”.

Yes this is so spot on. But how do you tell someone that their best isn’t good enough for your needs without them feeling terrible or argumentative about it

I think sometimes we have to realize we’re trying to shape into who WE want them to be, but it’s not who THEY desire to be. So because of your love for them, you have to let go of the relationship and the version of them you want them to be so badly so they can be their full self that is fully accepted by someone else.

I left him cuz I kept telling him what I expected from him for 2 1/2 yrs and nothing ever changed , but he was a great person in general but I didn’t have my emotional connection that I wanted

i try to be patient since he grew up based off survival & he says it’s hard for him. He wasn’t shown love/affection, he’s gotten better within the 5 yrs but i hate feeling like there’s something missing.

My late husband and I almost got divorced over stuff like this. He did eventually come to understand why I need the house clean *right now* and made the changes. But man, the first 10 years we were married were rough.

How do you know if it’s their best?

Sometimes they give what you’re begging for easily to others but can’t do it for you, which feels so damaging and hurtful

Both people need to grow. Every need is not going to be met by your partner. If that’s what you’re looking for no one will be enough.

mine loves saying “i’m trying my best !!1!1!1!!1” constantly. literally does not do anything. or he says “i just didn’t think about it”. .

I feel like I really needed to hear this. I've been going through so much guilt not loving someone who loves me. But they're so nice and I just don't know what to do because I don't want to hurt anyone.

There’s room for growth on both parts here. There’s somewhere in the middle between I’ll get to it when I can and spotless

Brenda :
thank you I've been thinking about this for days... is it lack of emotional intelligence? is it emotional mapping if they continue to do it after being told how I feel about it? is it just that they don't know how to properly help/soothe me? ugh

My needs might be a level 7, their everything might only be at level 5. You can compromise, sure. But if they are too far apart it’s never going to be enough.
