Lonely and confused

It sucks to be in a relationship and still feel alone. Wanting more time with the person you are with seems like a good thing but I guess I’m wrong. Two days a week does not seem enough when you are engaged to someone. I shouldn’t have to beg for attention. I’m not a perfect size and I’m not beautiful and I might not ever find someone else who loves me but I shouldn’t be alone so much in a relationship. I shouldn’t spend holidays and my birthday alone. It’s embarrassing always making excuses why he’s not there during times that you are suppose to be with the ones you love. Tomorrow is my birthday and nothing is planned not a gift not even a simple dinner cooked for me or flowers. His time would just be enough but again I will spend it by myself. It’s hard to think about breaking things off I can’t find away to make that choice. I’m so lost and lonely.

You are beautiful and you could definitely find someone else that would love you. Relationships are hard, and are a lot of give and take. It sounds like you’re doing all the giving though. Sometimes it is necessary to evaluate the current situation you’re in. If you’re not happy then maybe it would be best to break things off. On the other hand maybe you just need to have a long discussion about your feelings with him, he may be blind to how he is making you feel.
