However, I have to say that in my eyes many relationships will end up asymetric due to differing needs.
For example, we talk a lot. But mostly about stuff I bring up. If there was some problem at work, or some interesting gossip about mutual friends, whatever. He hears me out, he laughs with me, he comforts me.
I know it's not always easy for him at work either, but it's just not in his personality to come complain about it.
So in general terms, he's serving as a kind of "emotional ashtray" for me, and I'll gladly serve as a kind of "fuck meat" for him.
Operative keywords "for him", not as a general idea.
I'm pretty certain he respects me, if not, I could not love him so much. Matter of fact, I doubt I could be in a happy relationship with a guy who's respect for me depends on my limited sexual willingness, rather than on my personality.
IIN I let my boyfriend have sex with me even when I'm not in the mood?
