What happens when your partner doesn't see the value in you...

What happens?

“Making someone love me” is the most painful, most fruitless of efforts, because love cannot be manufactured in this way.

I would realize that it’s not my partner who is hurting me. I am hurting myself, by agreeing to stay with someone who is looking for something he is not finding in me.

Why do women stubbornly refuse to let men lead, even though they are attracted to the man, and the man both loves and desires them? Why do they get angry and blame the man when he gets fed up and walks away, when it's entirely their own fault?

I would work hard at only being interested in people who are equally interested in me.

If my “partner” didn’t see value in me and hurt me searching for something in others, I would remind myself that I cannot change people, “make them see” or “make them love me”.

There is another scenario:

I'm looking for an answer from people who consider themselves "Gender Critical", or transphobic, or TERFs, and my question is this - Why would you refuse to use the pronouns someone wants? What does it cost you? Where's the harm?

I would ask myself why I consider it worth my time to be with someone who does not find me valuable. Identifying this answer will over time protect me from finding myself in this same predicament over and over.

In one scenario, I stay with this partner, wonder why he doesn’t love me, and begin living in a world of my creation where I believe that, unfortunately, I am not worth loving.

I would leave this partner to grant him full freedom to go find whatever he is looking for and spend the time and energy that I put into that relationship getting to know myself. What I would find is someone flawed and worthy of love.

Is it possible for humans to determine their past life as an animal? Is there a scientific method to prove this?

I believe this non-love is the best I can do and spend all my time and energy attempting to preserve the very thing that causes me pain.

What happens when your partner doesn't see the value in you and continuously hurts you by searching for something in others knowing it hurts you?
