Understanding
what you want and what you expect out of a relationship does not make you
selfish. But you have to be willing to accept that one other person may not be
able to fulfill your EVERY relationship need. We aren’t saints, after all. But
you are NOT selfish for expecting fundamental relationship needs out of your
partner. These needs might be different than someone else’s, but no matter what
relationship, both partners have to be willing to do two things: prioritize and
communicate.
