Imagine telling a man you want more romance—not grand gestures, just to feel special—and he responds with ‘teach me how.’ Like… you need me to set the date, take you out, and write step-by-step instructions on how to make me feel valued? Be serious.
To add context—this isn’t a new conversation. When you’ve been with someone for years and have repeatedly explained what makes you feel special, why it matters, and that it’s not about grand gestures but effort, yet every time it’s like a brand-new concept… it gets exhausting.

@cryaboutitba It’s so frustrating. I communicate it clearly that I’m overwhelmed… but yet like they hear me but it’s not being listened to. Idk… like idk
