Is it wrong.?

For wanting so much attention from your partner? I'm only 17 so I live w. My parents. I see him a lot because I've been with him for 2 yrs and just had a baby girl together but when were apart I wanna talk to him still, it's not like we see each other every day. But he doesn't even acknowledge me everyday. It's been this way for a year and I've fought and complained at him because he doesn't give me what I need, those feelings that he cares and loves me and wants to hear from me unless I'm with him I. Person. I'm dropped all my friends and social websites for him in the beginning of our relationship so I have no one  but why is it fair I'm here alone with a baby and he only calls once a day and he doesn't even talk to me. am I wrong for wanting attention so much? I just am getting so close to giving up on him and moving on to let someone give me everything he doesn't . . :(  but I love him more then life .... He takes me for granted and I just don't know what to do... Just a rant I guess ....

I'm sorry. It's not wrong to want affection from the ones we love. When they aren't giving it, it makes you crave it even more! Sounds like you may care just a little more than he does. If he's acting that way maybe you should just ask him if he still has feelings for you and tell him it bothers you that he seems so detached ..does he still care? Does he go out of his way to see you? Or does he only come around when it's convenient for him? I think deep down you probably already know the answer.. If it's hurting you by trying to hold on to something that's not there anymore maybe you should try to take some "you" time. Either way I hope you the best.

It was so hard. So so so so hard. But you know what? Did someone die? No. So I was alright. I always wanted to call him. I always wanted to text him. Hell, I could spend the night 2 days and still be unsatisfied!!! I was selfish but you can't make someone put you in a place where they just do not want too. To cope, I started paying more attention to my pregnancy. I'm now 36 weeks but I started planning the baby shower. I worked all day and that mostly helped. I did crafts. I also watched random movies. I did extremely random things to be honest. With time.. I started getting used to doing things alone. I blocked him off everything I could unless he would voluntarily come looking for me.

I felt the same in the past until I realized I was begging for a spot in someone else's life. So I drifted apart on my own.
