    You don't have to just accept things to be appreciated etc etc.

    You need to talk to this person who makes you feel like that and explain how you feel. He/she possibly dosnt know. Some people just dont click on as quickly as others and have no knowledge of how to act in relationships etc etc etc.

    Don't be a doormat and just accept things, put our point of view across and dont do what you dont want to!!!

    If you feel like you are appreciated but he/she does nto show that appreciation just tell him/her tht you need more words from him, you need him to tell you how it is etc etc etc

    Only with talking can thinsg get better, talking is the root to solving problems

    Good luck

    Men and women are very much different in they way they think and act. In many cases, women are more nurturing and caring. Men are more territorial and aggressive. These differences in traits will obviously cause differences in a relationship that will cause conflicts. The trick is to be able to compromise. While somethings can't be compromised, most can and it has to be a joint effort by both parties. As far as just "accepting things", there are times for that as well by both parties. You have to accept a person for who that person is and learn to work with the situation. Does that mean you have to just "accept" everything? Of course not, but what it does mean is that just as you can't change the spots of a leopard, nor can you change that of a person.Our parents through childhood and peers through adolescence mold us to who we are today. Those things that you can't just accept are those things that bring a marriage and family to its knees. Adultery and abuse are obviously not acceptable and ethical issues are difficult to overcome. But for most other things, acceptance and compromise are imperative to make the relationship work.

    Because nobody can possibly thank everybody for every tiny little thing they do in life. Does your partner thank you for wiping your rear end after having a bowel movement? Of course not! Do you verbally thank your partner for taking out the trash or putting soiled underwear in the hamper or taking a plate to the sink and putting it in the dishwasher? Or showering? What in the world do you want appreciation for that you are just "accepting"?

    What ever it is you need to "accept",.... I think you need to think about what it is and what you want from it,.... and do what you will do with the knowledge.
