Summary

Does it bother you that your boyfriend doesn't compliment you as much as you would like him to? On today's episode I'll be answering the following listener question: "Good morning.

Hi everybody. Thanks again for tuning into the women's dating and confidence podcast. Today I'm going to be

0:16.5

answering a listener question. And if you didn't already know, you can send me your questions

0:22.5

about dating or confidence through Instagram, Facebook, or email, and I will create a podcast

0:29.0

for you answering your question. So she wrote, I just started dating a guy I'm very attracted to.

0:37.1

We met online, so he obviously thinks I'm

0:39.3

attractive, and I've been told the same, but he doesn't compliment me. I don't need the validation,

0:45.6

but it would be nice to hear that I look nice. He's always affectionate towards me. Calls,

1:34.8

confused about it as well. So first of all, to answer your question about whether this is a red flag

1:40.7

or something you need to worry about, definitely not. I think guys can just be kind of

1:45.6

oblivious sometimes and they need you to communicate these things to them so that they know what's

1:53.4

important to you and they can decide if they want to do that or not. But I would say probably

1:59.8

in this situation, he isn't even thinking about

2:03.2

that. He doesn't even have any idea how important it is to you. So what I would recommend is,

2:09.5

first of all, if you haven't heard about the five love languages, I'm going to link an article
