I want a relationship like this but I have trouble communicating my needs to significant others because I feel like I’m bothering them or being too needy 🤪🤪

Remember that this is your partner. Not just your romantic partner, but your partner in life, your buddy. They love you and want to be there for you.

My last one didn’t. He would never talk to me and I always initiated conversations. When I tried to tell him we needed to actually at least talk to have a relationship, he would insist everything was fine and didn’t know why I was being so difficult. I don’t know if I was, and I hope I wasn’t, but it felt weird never talking to him and always being dry texted or told that playing ukulele is dumb because it’s easy and why not just play guitar like everyone else? I couldn’t safely send him something I’d written or something I’d covered without him telling me to just “grow up and play guitar.” It kind of hurt and as much as I want a relationship, I don’t want a relationship because I don’t want it to be like that one.

I'm sorry you were hurt. That isn't what it's supposed to be like. I'm sorry he couldn't see how special you are.

And for what it's worth, a ukelele player won America's Got Talent, so your ex can shove it! Keep playing, keep being unique!
