You Love Him. AND He's Selfish. 6 Ways To Cope.

Have you ever had a morning where you rolled over, looked at your man and thought “How did I get here?” It’s not that you don’t love him. It’s that who you thought you were falling for isn’t exactly what you ended up with.

The thing is, he’s selfish. It took a while to put two and two together, but that’s what it equals out to. You suggest going to a restaurant for dinner and he shuts it down because he doesn’t like that kind of food. You drop hints about what you want for your birthday and he totally forgets. Even the sex. He’s not out to make sure you’re pleased, especially if he “got his” first.

What do you do when you’re in love with a man who is primarily concerned with his own needs and his own interests? It takes some doing, but there are some things that can make staying with him more bearable and beneficial too.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
