Touch: It doesn\u2019t have to be this specifically, but consistently allowing something like letting me hold your hand or riding in my lap. I know you\u2019ve let me put my arm around you, but I\u2019m sorry, that isn\u2019t enough for me; it\u2019s something I could do with my sister or roommates. If we are to take a step forward, there would need to be times where you\u2019ll share with me physical tokens of commitment.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not asking you to kiss me. Particularly after my yelling on Friday, I don\u2019t feel like I\u2019d have enough trust to merit you taking such a step with me just yet. But I\u2019d love it if you actually liked physical contact and reached out to me sometimes\u2014at a minimum, I\u2019d need to know it\u2019s something you\u2019re encouraging me to do because you want me to know I\u2019m appreciated.<\/p>\n

Acknowledgment of my responsibility: This one I\u2019ve probably explained the least, although we\u2019ve argued about it a few times. But I\u2019ll try to explain here. It seems like when things go wrong in your life, almost regardless of circumstance, you immediately take all the blame and beat yourself up about it. I\u2019m not saying this to criticize you but to share how your taking all the blame affects me (outside of how sad it is to see you or anyone tear themselves down).<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think I always do everything right. I plan to make mistakes. But I want to grow from them. I need someone who will help me see my side of a problem so I can learn and grow too. There are times with you when I feel like I\u2019m just repeatedly sticking my finger in an electrical socket, but when I try to learn from it, you won\u2019t help me understand why.<\/p>\n

Since you\u2019re important to me and I don\u2019t want to give up, I don\u2019t really have any other options than to stick my finger in again to see if I can learn why. This hasn\u2019t felt like a particularly effective technique.<\/p>\n
