Relationship Trouble( I need your advice, people!)?

Ok, well in my relationship I feel as though I am the only one who ever gives compliments. Don't get me wrong, but my GF always says I love you, as do I, it is just I open up to her much more. I'd tell her things about how cute and sweet she is, but it seems as though I never get a compliment about how much I mean to her, even though I tell her how much she means to me. Should I be concerned about this? Should I keep complimenting her and telling her these sorts of things?Relationship Trouble( I need your advice, people!)?
Really, we go through so many relationships expecting to get what we give and thinking we're not. Maybe you are being appreciated, but you are spending too much time looking for it in all the wrong places. She might have another way of showing you. She's not exactly like you, so cut her some slackRelationship Trouble( I need your advice, people!)?
if you're very much sure she wants the relationship with you, you need not worry. though compliments really help, it might be that it's not her way of ';expressing'; how much you mean to her. try to look on the little-almost-unnoticeable things she does to/for you like checkin you up, keeping you updated, cancelling some appointments for your company,surprising you,etc. it is also possible that she had a memorable experience on giving out compliments to a partner, i mean, she might have had an ex-bf whom she gave compliments before then just took her for granted. she might have kept that in mind that's why she avoids to compliment you, afraid history might repeat itself.. nevertheless, if you don't feel good about the thought of you not receiving any compliments, you might as well open it up to her so that you'll know her side..
Coming from a girl.... all girls are concieted in some way, we love hearing compliments... don't stop, even if she says ';you don't have to say that';





The thing is we really don't know what to compliment you on because when we do things like hold your hand, or lay or head or your shoulder, or just simply smiling at you... we think we are giving you compliments and we don't have to say anything





To girls actions are stronger than words so simply saying i love you is easy but showing it is a bit harder than saying it. So if you show us love instead of just saying it we feel more complimented.





Maybe you should pay more attention to her body language, if you pick up on the small things you will feel way more complimented than you do now.
ah i went through somethin not as extrem but similar my problem was i would open up and then she'd do the same but at times id feel like i liked her more... Talk to her about it dont seem to Stuck on the whole She doenst compliment me more thing cause 1. it comes off conceited a little 2. she'll feel obligated and it'd be fake or it'd be real you'd never know and plus you'd rather have her say it as little as she does and no its real then not know and have her say it alot Good luck my friend and communication is the key P.S. dont seem like your annoyed be more sympathetic leaves more room for repairing.
Just talk to her about it as openly as you compliment . Let her know how you feel whit out making her feel like a monster for that. I was as closed as her, maybe more, because i did not used to say i love you when i was crazy about the gay, Somehow whit the right words and if she is willing to do something like a drill you may help her to open up. That is one of many wonders love makes possible.
Hard to tell dude. If she is not into you, only you will be able to tell that.





You want my opinion? I'd say if you are asking this question here, then that's reason enough for me to believe that she's not into you as much as you are into her. Confront her about it. If she act's weird and gives you the typical answer of, ';oh no baby i love you!';, then get rid of her. She's just too nervous to break up with you so she's making it miserable for the both of you.
If yous say way too much of one particular thing it starts to sound fake as if you don't mean it. Believe me, I know personally after how much my husband says ';I love you'; to me. He says it at least ten times in one day. Don't get me wrong, I love to hear it but sometimes I wonder if he doesn't mean it......
Well it all depends on the person... maybe she's the type of person that isn't really open with her feelings and doesn't really know how to express herself. Sometimes if the way she acts should be good enough. I'm not a really verbal person but when I'm with a person that I really care about or LOVE, I go to the extremes to make things happen.
I am the same way with my boyfriend.


He is always telling me all this beautiful things and I dont.


Its because I am afraid. I am afraid to tell him how much I truly care. I am afraid Ill give him everything I have and he will hurt me. I am scared over all that he will run away if I fill him up with my loving.


I am sure your girlfriend loves you more than you think. I am willing to bet. Shes just scared still. You need to be patient and give her time. Talk to her about it. My boyfriend did and although he didnt like my answer he is being patient.
give her time she may not be ready to open up to you in that kind of way she may feel afraid of how you will react try asking her,but make her feel comfortable let her know that she can trust you (if she really can) it's very hard to put your trust into somebody and let them make promise's they fell to keep, just be easy on her. trust me. patience is love
ha sounds familar.... i think its good that u compliment her and make her feel loved but i also think that her not saying things is also making u not feel loved and u should say something to her. u sound like a good guy and u should b treated the way u deserve to b treated. u both have to try to make the relationship work
Tell her! She might nit even realize that you don't feel appreciated so if you voice your concerns, she might be able to put more effort into making it known that she loves out and thinks your special. Don't take it to mean that she doesn't care as much as you do. We're all a little absent-minded about some things.





Hope that helps :)
Why don't you you trying tell how you feel. Talk to her. Don't make a big deal of this. If you are only giving her compliments because you secretly hope of getting one in return then you are only interested in yourself. You should have enough self-confidence to not act that way.
Yes you should definately keep complimenting her, she is very lucky to have you do that. You should also tell her how much you would love to hear her say nice things to you. Be gentle about it, not demanding, and say it every now and then. She will start doing it in time. Good luck!
some people just drop compliments all the time, while others may think them, but not say them. I had a huge fight with my friend because of this, and you might want to talk to her about it before you start to get too resentful.
Just keep doing what you're doing...when it feels right, she'll let you know how much you mean to her... also, does she show you in different ways, like always staying close to you, saying I love you, etc? If so, I see no problem at all.





Help me, please?

ok dont be offened but dont tell her loads of compliments you could swamp her if you constanly tell people i love you then it loses its meaning she does need to tell you more have you told her these things sit her down and tell her what you have said here
you dont need to compliment her anymore.. as you know you two love each other.. you love them as they are.. and they dont need to know that because they already know that you love them and you know they are ';perfect'; for you.. --you know.. almost perfect.. :]
wow you have no idea how many girls want their guys to open up to them. Its usually the girls that have to open up the guys. I think that you should kinda close but not alot. That way if she notices then you would know htat she cares.
YES DUDE I THINK U SHOULD AND I ALSO THINK SHE JUST DOSENT KNOW HOW TO BEAT THOSE COMPLIMENTS BECAUSE SHE ISINT GOOD AT GIVING THEM AND SHE MIGHT NOT BE USE TO THEM.





U MIGHT HAVE TO BE CONCERNED AND THINK SHE MIGHT BE GETTING BOARD.
Theres nothing to be worried about. Some people think it's akward to compliment people and some are really shy or embarrassed. Either way I don't think it's abnything to worry about.
Dont stress about it


u have different love languages... ur obviously an encouragement person and she may be something different, Read the book personality plus, its short but thats exactly what it talks about
You are so nice. Your avatar is cute. You communicate effectively . You are a catch. I like your smile.


Feel better?


STop complimenting her for 48 hours and see if she reacts.
she may have trouble showing her emotions. I do the same thing she does. I find it hard to give compliments and receive them.
I'm not trying to doubt you or anything but maybe there is something about you that is bugging her. Try asking her. Maybe she's dealing with something completely different. Has she always been like that?
maybe she just has trouble with relationships and feels that its getting too deap. Continue saying these things but not all the time or just talk with her about it
Why do you compliment her? Is it coming from the heart or are you looking for compliments in return? There's your answer.


Don't forget, too many compliments can get old real fast.
maybe shes still shy around you and is waiting for the right time to open up to you. im sure she loves you. =]
Maybe you should drop a hint. like it would be nice to hear how you feel about me sometime
express ur concern with her...be honest and yes continue to compiment her..cause she most likly loves that u do
well how long have you guys been going out? and i don't mean to sound like an @$$ but are you sure it's love? and that she really loves you back? if it's too soon to really tell then maybe she doesn't feel the same as you do yet. there are different ';levels'; of love too. i'm not trying to make it sound like a video game, but i know when i first told my bf i love him, it wasn't nearly the same kind of deep connection i have with him now. so maybe she needs time to open up a bit.





another issue may be her trust. not to say that she doesn't trust you, but guys in general. if she was ever cheated on or told that she was loved but it was a lie, then she may feel she needs to wait to open up because she fears being let down.





so the best thing to do is not push it! give her plenty of time! open up to her and let her know you arn't going anywhere and you really love and care for her. it may take some time, but it will be worth it.





if you wait a while and she still doesn't come around, try talking to her.





best of luck! =]





btw- never stop complimenting her! it doesn't matter if she knows how much you care! keep telling her! make her feel special everyday! even if you're together for the next 80 years! tell her everyday she's beautiful and you love her!
