Is it normal to love each other in different ways?

I just came across this "we assume others show love the same way we do, and if they don't, we worry it's not there." Is that true? When I look at my relationship, it could be true. I might be showing more love than my partner is to me. He hasn't broken up with me so he still wants me but there are things I wish he could do more often but he says its just not in him so okay. I wish he could do some things that I do to him. But at the same time, I shouldn't be talking because he reminds me of how I am when it comes to other people including family. They call me more reserved and less emotional but obviously they know the love is there I just don't show it. Some people express their love more affectionately like I do while others show it by spoiling the other or something. So with all that being said, does that quote speak the truth? Is this normal?

    It's true. But you also have to be with someone who seems to have similar emotional needs as yourself- Otherwise the one with the most needs will only get hurt.

    The major issue with any relationship is that once they have you, a lot of them stop trying and seize to do what it took to finally get you.
