Martino

If you were always different in your communication needs it is unlikely she will radically change. The two of you need to try and find a happy medium in the way you show love for each other. There is nothing trivial or whiney about asking your mate to fill your needs. That’s what a relationship is all about. I’m sure you’ve seen it suggested on this forum many times but try Chapman’s Five Languages of Love. It may be a very good read for both of you and give you each an different perspective on communication. I think it positive that when you talk about your needs she tries to fill those for a couple of days. Even though she isn’t sticking it out at this point it shows she does care. She needs some help from you to get into a regular habit. Good luck.
