“He doesn’t go the extra mile with acts of service either – just what’s convenient. He prioritizes himself and his family and tells me that he will never tolerate cheating again and will immediately break up with me if we ever have this issue.”
She does appreciate her boyfriend’s loyalty to himself and his family, and she doesn’t expect to be the number one person in his life as they are not married.
She has never stepped out on a previous partner, so she knows her boyfriend will never have a problem with her cheating on him. Those things don’t concern her, but she is concerned that it seems like her boyfriend was more devoted to his ex than he is to her.
“But sometimes it makes me feel sad because I feel like he gave 100% of himself to his ex despite her being a horrible person, while all he will be able to give me is 60% because ‘he has learned his lesson’ not to give all of yourself to someone,” she continued.
“Gift giving is my love language, and I always give him gifts, sometimes big things, and sometimes little sentimental trinkets, just to surprise him.”
“I also volunteer to do things for him and his family all the time. I guess I just… I just want someone to love me 100% because that’s what I give to every relationship.”
She’s wondering if she can quit feeling like her boyfriend was more in love with his ex than he is with her.
Do you think there’s a way for her to get past this?
