In love but tired
Relationship Stress / by ChanVVN

...See more I've played the caretaker role for my partner for a while now while she has been dealing with mental health struggles. My needs became put so on the backburner I forgot I had them. Things have been getting better on that front, but I still experience this feeling of being so scared to express that I need something from my partner and then when I finally ask my partner never finds the energy to follow through with it. I ask for more help on tasks for the house, and nothing gets done for a week until I write it all down for her. And then half of it got done before she forgot. I ask for more physical touch and she reminds herself to done me with kisses for a day or two and then forgets it. I don't feel done with this relationship in the slightest, but I'm done with this balance but am at a loss at how to move forward.
