Appreciation is shown with keen currency = When you not got a full time job- pull your weight at home!!!! That goes for both sexes by the way. The key to a happy domestic life is being fracking domestic together- and knowing when to blow off house work for a good time but not leaving it for one person to be responsible for everything. >>>>Everyone feels more appreciated when the home is cared for, otherwise it just looks like a sad reflection of how you feel about each other and yourself<<<<
Usually when people tell me they feel under appreciated i just have to ask them- " what have you done to make your partner feel appreciated lately?" Because yeah- you know that they haven't. It's so easy for people in a relationship to just focus on themselves and their own needs, and their own complaints.

Well when you feel like there is something missing we always know... COMMUNICATION seems to be something we all lack at times. Could be many different reasons but still comes back to us talking, not pushing each other away. Yeah having kids isn"t no easy job, more so when there 12months apart, but we bring them to this Earth so we should try and bring them up as a family.. It"s also alot easier to write this when you know in yourself how things could have and should have been different...Well said Tania Desire
So what happens when the above is not working......what if the non full time worker partner doesn't do what should be done. It's not like you can leave or nothing...especially if you have kids. I'd imagine lots of fighting and arguing....how if partner doesn't give a shit ?

Well I guess it comes down to having common goals and a common outlook. If there isn't a compatibility there and there never was then I guess it'd be pretty hard to manage a relationship with two people trying to "run" it differently...
If there was and things have changed...maybe partner x doesn't do their fair share- maybe they don't give a shit...or maybe it just appears that way. I'd question the situation more deeply to find out if something else was affecting them- Depression, stress, environment, finances?
A relationship that has no positive outlook should not be left to die. If there is no want for either party to make the relationship work, then a decision has to be made to move on... However scary that might be for some of the long long goers. My Hubby and I separated for a time about 5 yrs into our relationship- we needed a makeover. It was difficult and we do have kids and did back then as well. The final resolve for us was that we actually wanted to be together and wanted it to work...so we made it.
But you can only make a relationship work if two people want it to, and are willing to work hard at it. And thats the stock standard answer for most relationships...People can leave when they want to, if they really want to, but they choose not to.
I believe that fighting and arguing is a healthy component to any relationship but disrespect is not.
As the "s-type" in my relationship part of my journey is discovering ways to communicate my needs without being demanding, but allowing a certain amount of transparency. I'm allowed to stir a debate, and put ideas forward, vent and in my own fiery headstrong way get riled up...But he's too cool for that... He just ignores me and does want he wants in the end... My moods can't control him.
