I'm an affectionate guy/physically affectionate, should I give up trying to find a girl who's equally affectionate?

[Anonymous]

I've always been affectionate/physically affectionate in my relationships, and always more so than the women I date, my current girlfriend of almost 3 years drives me crazy sometimes with how un-affectionate she is... It seems like this with every girl I date. Should I just give up on trying to find someone as equally affectionate as me or more affectionate than me?

As someone who is also overly affevtionate. affectionate... it's tough when they don't show the same level of affection. They just have a different love language. I've changed some routines (and talked with my partner about wanting more affection) and it's become bearable, which is the most I could reasonably ask for from someone that isn't innately physically intimate.

No, you shouldn't give up on finding someone that is truly what you want in a partner.

Yeah, opposites attract though I guess

[Abbycado]

That is true. I just don't believe in settling for less than what you really want in someone.

[Asker]

It's just hard enough finding a partner with half of what you're looking for as is

[Abbycado]

I hear ya. It isn't easy finding that perfect guy/girl.
