Relationships can struggle when one partner feels they are giving more than they receive in love. This imbalance may arise from differing love languages, where one person's form of love isn’t recognized by the other. Emotional disconnect can also stem from external stresses like work or family life, causing partners to neglect each other’s emotional needs. Additionally, unaddressed resentments create barriers. Honest communication about feelings and mutual responsibility can help restore balance in love and intimacy.
Feeling like you love your spouse more than they love you isn't just painful - it's lonely, especially in a relationship that's supposed to be mutual.
Sometimes the distance isn't about you - it's about life. Work, parenting, finances, or personal struggles can make your partner emotionally unavailable without realizing it.
If one or both partners have unresolved hurts, it may show up as indifference, withdrawal, or coldness - even though love is still there beneath the surface.
Instead of accusing - 'You don't love me like I love you!', try vulnerability - 'Lately, I feel like I'm the only one reaching out. I miss feeling chosen.'
