I seem to be in a constant cycle of disappointment. Husband and I seem to be having a tough patch with everything getting on top of us and then him mainly snapping at me. I have told him a few times that I never get apologies and I never feel appreciated. An argument recently would have resulted in serious grovelling and flowers chocolates etc by most other men, I told him this and still nothing. Since then he must have made me cry dozens of times, I've been really having a hard time between him and our son my mental and physical health has taken a beating and I'm so down in the dumps but still get nothing been off sick but not had a message saying how are you, no popping to shop to get me things, no fave bar of choc to cheer me up nothing. I feel so let down it's really silly that I sit here thinking I'm sure he will go to shop and buy me some flowers then I'm disappointed. How do I get past the disappointment how do I stop my brain from living in a romcom? I just want to feel appreciated and loved, not constantly disappointed and fighting tears ☹️
(For the record I often get him little treats, be it his favourite biscuits when I'm shopping or re organising things so he can attend an event, or setting aside evenings to watch a favourite film with him, cook his favourite tea etc.)
