You try to show love to your spouse. . . and you get nothing in return. You try to let your spouse know how much you love your spouse. . . and you get nothing back.
Let me say that I do not think it is alright to be in a relationship where none of your needs are met.
But I want to challenge you: are you doing those things, so that your needs will be met?
If so, you are not giving love, you are trying to make a transaction: “I do this for you, so you do that for me.”
That is a recipe for hurt and pain.
Love is a gift. And only when it is freely given can it be accepted without manipulation or expectation.
Love is a gift, not a transaction.
