When he takes up for me (and us), even when I'm not around, and when he accepts my beliefs and opinions without judgement, even when they are very different from his.
When he remembers anything I say I wish I don't have to repeat myself again and again. When I say something his next question is something about what I just said. I feel ignored and feel he just doesn't care what matters to me. I feel like when I'm saying something all he thinks about is what he's going to say next, like I'm talking to a wall and not a person.
When he lets me go to Wally world by myself;( ... When we get time to cuddle and just talk and spend time together!!!
I would feel most respected when he stands up for me and has my back.and if he treated me the same no matter who was around.hopefully I will see more of this
When he comes to me for my opinion before making a decision.
When he isn't automatically in defensive mode. When he stops to listen and process what we have talked about with taking things as an aggressive move towards him. When he does things to protect me or help me through difficult personal times.
When we are doing something she wants done
When we're having an argument and he actually talks things through with me instead of ignoring. He's infamous for giving me the silent treatment.
When he truly listens to what I have to say !
When he cares about my opinion. When he thanks me for something sweet I have done when he is just there for me.
All the time :)
On days that end in "y" :-)
When she acknowledges the things I do that make her life better in front of our loved ones. It gives me great pride and I know she respects and appreciates me as a person.
When he listens to me without interrupting and I can tell he's sincerely interested in what I have to say.
When she takes my advice and puts it to use, but she respects me a lot in other ways too
