You Can Never Show Too Much Appreciation
We All Need The Validation
In past relationships I always felt very under appreciated. It felt like I was always keeping the ball rolling but all of my efforts went unnoticed.
I understand in a way. You get comfortable in your roles and you forget that there the person you love most isn’t obligated to do the things they do. They do them because they love and care about you.
We, as humans, all need to be appreciated
We all need the validation that what we do matters. When we don’t get that, we tend to feel like giving up.
In other words, don’t take people for granted. Do you know how soul sucking it can be to have your efforts be ignored by people? This happens a lot in relationships and it’s why a lot of them fail.
I remember when I was still with the father of my children. There were many problems in our relationship but one that had a big impact was his lack of appreciation he showed towards me. It was if he felt entitled to me and what I did for him.
I made dinner every night and never once heard him say thank you for it. Heck, most of the time he refused it because he didn’t like the way I made it.
