My boyfriend is perfect… just not with me

0 support1 reactions1 replies
I don’t even know how to explain this without sounding ungrateful. My boyfriend is genuinely a great person. He’s kind, respectful, never shouts, never cheats, always shows up for everyone. But not really for me. Like he’ll go out of his way for his friends, his family, even coworkers. But with me, it’s always “later”, “I’m tired”, “we’ll see”. He remembers everyone else’s important days, but forgets mine. If I bring it up, he says I’m overthinking because “he treats me well”. And technically, he does. There’s no big problem I can point at. It’s just this constant feeling that I’m not a priority in my own relationship.

That’s not ungrateful—it’s basic. Being a good person isn’t the same as being a good partner. If you don’t feel like a priority, that matters. And dismissing it as “overthinking” isn’t fair.
