Love
A friend of mine posted this on facebook and I thought, how true..."Just because someone doesn't love you in the way you want them to, doesn't mean that they don't love you with all they've got."
Don't we all give and expect different things in a relationship? Some expect 24 hour updates and spend every free moment with their partners. Some expect total submission. Some prefer more freedom and time to do their own stuff. Some love receiving presents. Some send lots of smses. Some don't. Some bring their partners out for nice meals and movies. Some prefer a quiet and intimate evening by the beach or park.
There is no standard formula for a relationship. We only feel the way we do because we model after our parents or crave the things that were lacking when we were growing up. Pressurizing your partner to give you what you want will only strain the relationship and create unnecessary stress. Perhaps it is better just to appreciate your partner for what he/she is able to give and give what you are willing to part with.
