My ex was the same to me. He never complimented me on my looks whether I tried to look nice or not. He would just admit that he was attracted to me and that’s it. Whereas I always paid compliments to him. The relationship was very lukewarm for me. Hence why he’s my ex. My current partner is always expressing how beautiful I am, how attractive he finds me, almost on a daily basis. It’s been 3 years and the compliments have not stopped and the way he looks at me makes me feel that heat from him. He’s also a very attractive man as well. Being with him makes me feel the contrast all the more, now I feel desired, appreciated and loved on every level. You deserve being with someone who can see your beauty.
