What to do with a neglectful boyfriend....talk? leave? bribe with sex??

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • patience
  • undivided attention
  1. Step 1

    Make sure that there are no distractions. For example video games, tv, other people calling/texting, etc. You need to make sure he has your undivided attention. If his mind is somewhere else you won't be able to get through to him causing a lot of frustration on your part.

  2. Step 2

    Sit him down and explain why you feel neglected and what you would like him to do to change it. If it is because of video games lay down some rules such as an hour after work to relax then family time and maybe a little more time before bed.

  3. Step 3

    Hear what he has to say. Do not tune him out and think that your right. Compromising is the only way to work things out. If you do not show him any respect you probably will not get any back resulting in more problems.

Tips & Warnings
  • Try to catch him in a good mood, same with you!
  • Think about what you are going to say before asking to talk
  • Be patient, it may take some time for him but nicely remind him
  • Ask if theres anything that they would like that you did or did not do so it is not one sided
  • Do not go into it mad, it is a guaranteed fight.
  • Do not say that can't do whatever you do not like at all. 1) they will get mad and not listen or 2) they will do it behind your back.
