Why do I give so much and not get back the same?

I give a lot so that my partner can get the hint and I’m hoping he will learn from my giving so much.

Women wear so many hats. Maybe you have a partner that helps when you ask them to but just doesn’t get it and you’ve started to get resentful.

Have you ever asked yourself—

Am I married to a child? Why doesn’t my husband do things without me asking?

If you’ve been asking your partner to “help with the dishes” or “take out the trash” on repeat, you’re not alone. Many women feel like you do- exhausted after a day at work then to come home and find that there is still SO much to do. Moms are burnt out.

Cook dinner.

Homework with the kids.

Dishes.

Laundry.

Bathtime.

Bedtime routine

The list of tasks NEVER ENDS.

How do I know if I am in a burn out?

Many women over-compensate for their partner’s lack of initiative and ability to do things without being told. The resentment is growing and you are so tired of having to ‘tell’ your boyfriend or girlfriend to put the dirty clothes in the basket that your wondering if you might break up. Feeling like you are at the end of your rope. The urge to quit everything. Sleeping all the time.

These are all signs that you could be in a burnout. I specialize in supporting burnout recovery!

We help individuals to recover from burnout by creating healthy boundaries, putting yourself first and saying no to things that don’t align with your true self.

I think that if I meet her needs and anticipate what she wants then she will see that and do it for me too.

This is what so many of us think. We do all the things and the other person will do the same for us. Right?

Am I a people pleaser?

Are you putting your own needs aside to make your partner, husband or wife happy?

Maybe you are making allowances for their behavior because you don’t want to rock the boat? Or maybe you are afraid of them getting angry when you ask about who they are texting…

Why does my boyfriend talk to other women?

So many women allow this in their relationships, they tell themselves, “Oh they are just friends.” But the jealousy grows. The doubt and mistrust starts to erode your relationship.
Maybe you aren’t sure why you pretend not to notice the phone calls late at night or you have seen his inbox and found the emails from a female “friend”.

If you’ve compromised your own needs for the sake of keeping the peace then you might benefit from counseling. We teach you how to first identify what your needs are. If you’ve come from a family that didn’t provide you with emotional support it’s likely that you have attachment wounds or early trauma that is running in the background. Our therapists help you to uncover and heal from early trauma so you can have the deep meaningful realationships that you desire and long for.
