How do you deal with your partner seeking external validation?

1. As long as it isn’t excessive. I mean, everyone wants to be recognized by their peers for their skills or attractiveness, etc. to some extent.

2. Depends on what and to what extreme

3. I’ve personally never had a partner who was like that at all.

   I guess it’d depend on the level of how dependent he was about it, or what he needed validation for (e.g. appearance/work/specific skill..).
