Do you sometimes feel that your partner/spouse doesn't notice you?

Yes, when he is playing WoW or Minecraft, then I know he isn't paying any attention to me. I will have new clothes and a new hairstyle and he will still be on that computer playing World of Warcraft or Minecraft.

i like impressing my boyfriend by making myself look beautiful, or dressy, sexy or just look good. he notices me most of the time, he compliments me. but the only time he doesn't notice me is when he is in front of the computer or television watching his favorite basketball team play hahaha. but yeah as i said it is "most of the time". and when he doesn't recognize he change i would feel bad and pout and tell him what it is that is new about me and then he will come to me again maybe you should also be vocal about your feelings. i tell him everything i feel so to avoid any misunderstanding in our relationship.

One day, I bought a new dress and wore around of him, but it seemed that he didn't notice my changes, which made me very depressed,because obviously he didn't notice me like before,why? Is me old? I didn't feel I was so too old to not get his notice. what changed? However, another day, I wore this new dress again, he suddenly praised me looked very pretty, which made me very surprised,because it was my second wearing, but he didn't praise me at the first time, however at the second time. Maybe he wasn't in good mood before. Anyway, I felt happy when he compliment me. Hope your partner will notice you again.

I laughed when I read this, because my husband is even more obvious in not noticing me. He sits in the chair to the left of mine, and occasionally he will shout out my name as if I'm not in the room! So I shout WHAT? really loudly and he always looks surprised at my being there and tells me that he didn't see me! As it's only him and me and the dog (all of about eleven pounds of pooch) I wouldn't think I would be that hard to find. You know what they say about middle-aged women, though, we all become invisible!

I think most will recognize this. Mine does if we are together and esp. if I am talking to someone else. Also always says I look great but might be if we would be together every day it's over too. I think men notice if you don't look nice, since if you don't they will walk out of you (complaining you look like a ... and way better as you just met. Also interesting .. since many men don't want you to look the way you looked as you just met anymore! They are way too afraid other men will pay attention to you. I ignore that if it comes to my husband.).

I don't like this either. Maybe you should try leaving the receipts lying around so that he realises that you've bought something new recently. Another one would be to take a photo of yourself in your new clothes or hairstyle and send it to his mobile!

I have a husband who rarely notices anything new. He's been this way our entire marriage so it's not something new. Recently I had my hair colored primarily so I can control it. It's very fine and always has been but as I get older it's more difficult to control without some color on it. He never said a word and it was a drastic change. How I deal with these things is by thinking I feel good about myself and depend on others to make comments and they do. Compliments are always nice. Now if I gained tons of weight or was overweight, he would have something to say. Don't let it get you down. If you are content with your appearance that's half the battle. Stay positive and continue to shop...lol

Yes, I also feel ignore at times. But before I react negatively, I will internalize first if I have been appreciating my spouse as well. I have to make sure first that I understand my husband's language of love. He may not be expressing himself by telling me how attractive I am but he might have shown it in different ways.
