I honestly don’t understand why it’s so difficult to be appreciated as a straightforward girl in a relationship. I don’t lie/play unnecessary games to get money from my boyfriend. When I can (which is often), I sort out groceries sometimes when I’m at his house in order not to waste time or bother him; for both our convenience. Not because I have excess. I pay my bills in my own apartment without asking him for anything. He hardly offers to assist. Now I feel I’m being taken for granted when I eventually need him to help and he doesn’t come through, which is almost every time. He always assumes I can sort myself out but I end up borrowing from my sister. It’s my nature, but I might stop stepping in so much, since it’s giving him ideas
