Is it normal to like someone who doesn't fulfill you?
People ask me so why do you love him if he doesn't fulfill you? I love my bf for the person he is. He's everything I have always wanted from his personality, taste in things, values, looks, style and more. Of course, not everyone is perfect, meaning they're 100% good. Everyone has a little bad in them (or more for others) and my bf is no different. His flaws or bad side that impacts me ironically don't fulfill me. One of the things that I like about him is how he is focused on his career and life goals but his ambition turns him into someone so into himself that he doesn't have time or interest inn me. He wouldn't be with me if he didn't like me as a person. So yeah hes with me because he likes my personality but other than that, I feel like he can care less about my career and life goals. Not only that, but as if he doesn't take me seriously. We'll be talking about each other's day or whatever and when it comes to me, he's just "oh yeah" "mmm" "yeah? niceee." Then its off to his life and my responses carry a lot more thought than just "mmmm." So I basically feel alone most of the time or scared to talk cause hell reject me.
He says he likes me and wants to be with me but if you're not interested in my life, then why do you want to be with me? "Because I like you" thats his response. Well, can you please put more effort into caring? "I guess...I mean...I thought I was or idk." Ughhhh. It's almost as if he knows he doesn't care and doesn't wanna hurt my feelings or as if he WANTS to care but can't force himself to. I like him but feel alone with him in our relationship. Is this normal? We have been together for almost 2 yrs and I just want to see of there's any hope into him finally giving me attention?
