What do you expect from ur partner

5 comments

1. Everything I give.

   Time, love, effective communication, respect, protection, security, sex, money, effort, grace, understanding, space, and trust.

2. 100% as I expect myself to give 100% 🤷

3. I’ve learned to stop expecting and to be grateful for what I receive. Well, we both expect fidelity. If I feel neglected I talk to her. If she feels neglected she talks to me. This comes from years of counseling.

   Marriage is a lot like giving without conditions. I give and do not expect her to give back. That doesn’t mean I’m not sometimes disappointed or surprised. But in general it all evens out.

4. Someone I can trust with my secrets, my feelings, and someone to have sex with.

   If she does chores or cooks, it’s a bonus.

5. My expectations are that she will remain the same person (generally speaking) as she was before the marriage. I also expect her give the same effort that I give – in other words, marriages take work and they are not always easy, it’s during those times when you have to work at it. I expect her to work, just like I will work.
