@relationshipswithaly: Sometimes your partner says one thing, but they mean another. "You NEVER wanna hang out anymore" ➡️ This sounds like criticism, and it lands like it too, because it's simply NOT TRUE. "I'm missing more intentional connection between us" ➡️ Oh, okay, tell me more? What would that look like? I care about that too...let's make it happen!

Intentional connection feels like the word mental load. Nonexistent

well it never worked for me that way.
I feel like "I want more attention" -> give more attention -> lose respect -> "I found smb else"

Huh? :
No, because like they should know what you want. It’s a relationship. That word has a meaning that we all know. Don’t play games. #IfHeWantedToHeWould

Speaking in hyperbole and absolutes is a surefire way to damage your relationship. I often tell my girlfriend this, as she has a propensity to do this, and I'm at the point that I don't entertain conversations that start with "you always ___", "you never ___" anymore. the bad communication still surfaces now & again despite the broken record I've become. I'm not her therapist.
