We’ve all heard of playing hard to get, but in reality, withdrawing your love and attention will only end up killing trust and intimacy.

Instead of allowing your partner’s lack of attentiveness to ruin your self-esteem, breathe deeply and remember what a beautiful, lovable woman you are! Make an effort to feel good about yourself, and your confident vibe will soon have a positive effect on your partner.

If you have been letting your partner’s mood affect yours, then you are allowing him too much control over your life. Think about other aspects of your life that make you happy and share your happiness with your partner.

Remember, you can still act lovingly and affectionately to him without demanding his attention. If your partner sees that you are happy without having to be hugged every five minutes, then he will be more inclined to pay you attention.
