How to feel unloved

1. Think about what it would look like if your spouse loved you perfectly.

2. Focus on all the things your spouse isn’t doing.

3. Think about how you can only be happy if your spouse is doing everything correctly.

4. Pretend that all the other spouses are being loved in the most perfect way imaginable.

 5. Believe that you cannot generate your own love and that you have to wait for love to be thrust upon you.

6. Ignore all the way your spouse attempts to show love, as long as the attempts are not perfect.

7. Do not allow yourself to enjoy the love your spouse shows unless the actions are performed perfectly.

8. Demand that your spouse shows love your way, not theirs.

9. Withhold your love until your spouse gets it right.
