RE: Why doesn’t my boyfriend pay attention to me? How can I make him more attentive and loving?
As a woman living in an Asian country, it is well-known that girls have to be submissive to their partner. This has been the culture of most Asian countries. Well, relating to your post, it is the high time for women to value themselves as well. The time to know their worth as a person equally unique and complex as any man. And those things can’t be given to us by anyone, our can’t be validated by no one other than ourselves. It has to start from within. We should start believing that we are important and we do matter in this vast world. We have to love and to value ourselves before others can. Keeping these things in our hearts as we engage in a relationship, we can bring about change through multiplying the love rather than complicating things and causing pain not only to ourselves but as well as to our partners.
I am glad you mentioned "it has to start from within" because many women favor a fight. But that's the easy and non-lasting attempt for a solution. Again, I will repeat to those who insist on the struggle - what you resist persist.
You, and your peers in the Asian countries are doing an important job👍
It is also important to stress that as we look on ourselves as valuable individuals in this world, so do the opposite sex. And with this thought, it will lead us to deeply understand and consider the word “balance” in a relationship. Both individuals have a responsibility to take in making the relationship work. And I hope it will lead to nourished and cherished relationship. 😊
