When you pay attention to relationships, invest time and effort, your partner’s gratitude in return is a natural reaction. If it is not there, then over time the desire to do something for him disappears.
The most common mistake partners make in long-term relationships is to take care and affection for granted. For example, a man brings money to the house, and instead of caring, he receives reproaches. Or a woman devotes all of herself to the hearth and life, but does not hear gratitude at all.
Gratitude works in a special way. When we hear it, we perceive it as a compliment to our own personality.
The easiest way to express gratitude is to say “thank you”. But he is not the only one, and you can diversify it in the most amazing ways: slip a chocolate bar into your jacket pocket, write a tender note, loudly praise your spouse in a telephone conversation with a friend.
