Mom Confessions
DF likes to tell me how perfect I am and it's starting to really get to me. I am NOT by ANY means perfect. I am human. I have my flaws and I make mistakes.
It has started affecting our relationship. Any time I make a mistake or my flaws are visible, he starts to withdraw and it's getting on my nerve.
Don't put me on a damn pedestal and you wouldn't be dissapointed when you realize I am no a goddess, but only human.
(It is starting to get better because I keep talking to him about it.)

And see that's what I mean, he does nice things for me but rarely does he compliment me :(
Quoting sheymann:
I would never put anyone on a pedestal, just because no one deserves that.
I will be nice to him and do things for him and spoil him and he does the same to me, but I still do not expect him to be perfect.

I put other because he doesn't put me on one but every now and then it would be kind of nice.

Thank you for making me laugh. :)

That's how I feel, but DF keeps acting like I am perfect and when I make mistakes he gets upset and withdrwan.
Quoting XJetX:
No, nobody is 'perfect'. Loving someone isn't about finding someone that's perfect, it's about finding someone and loving them perfectly.
Quoting sheymann:
Right, but he doesn't expect you to be perfect does he?
Quoting XJetX:
Depends on the day. Most of the time I'm pretty spoiled, and always well taken care of. He comes home with flowers and gifts on a whim, and I know he loves me more than anything. But no relationship would be complete without a few arguments now and then

He doesn't buy me flowers or things like that. He considers buying my feminine hygiene items as an on a whim purchase even if he's already out and asks if I need anything :-/

Considering I know plenty of guys who won't buy feminine hygiene items, that's something.
Have you takled to him about it?

He puts me along with all of my flaws on a pedestal. As I do him. It works for us. We've been through hell and back together and appreciate the good and bad in each other.

You're welcome. Any time ! :)

He doesn't REALLY have you on a pedastal if he is disappointed in you or withdrawing from you.
-
It's only when I break the "perfect" imagine that he does that, so yes, he does.

I help do things for him but I wouldn't "put him on a pedestal" so to speak.
