Well don’t beg.
Instead sit her down and tell her how you feel.
It’s not pathetic to want attention from your partner. But you both need to talk about what’s going on, and why.
Calmly. Rationally. |

"Legit just any kind of attention!
I've tried speaking to her, and things haven't changed. "
Did she say why?
I'm not saying this is what's happening but do you show her affection all the time or just when you want sex? |

"She says she's just tired from work.
And yes I do. I'm a very affectionate guy. Or I say least like to think I am.
I don't know then. Sometimes relationship stuff is hard  "
It is. I'm trying. Thanks for replying. |

"I'm no relationship expect but what I know for sure is whatever you do 'don't beg for anything' puts you in a weak standing in the relationship power dynamics! "
Yeah, definitely not gonna do it. But I kinda feel like that's the only thing that's left haha |

Hang it back to them.
At a calm moment, make calm contact and say something along the lines of 'I'm feeling you're having a hard time and that makes me sad for you and me. I'd like us to talk about it and I'll be listening when you're ready. Cuppa?'

I said I was tired but reality was I couldn't stand being anywhere near him.
Why are you with her? |

That is so wonderfully worded.
You're lovely x |

I read an interesting article recently about being intentional in a relationship. What's your partner's love language? What are you doing to give her attention? How are you showing her that she's loved and safe? Maybe if you're doing little things for her, she may reciprocate. |
