hey what's up today let's have a genuine
0:02
heart-to-heart about something that's
0:04
tough but super important recognizing
0:07
when your partner doesn't respect you I
0:09
know it's not easy to admit and
0:11
sometimes it's buried under all the love
0:13
and romance you're used to hearing about
0:16
but trust me recognizing these signs can
0:19
be the first step to reclaiming your
0:20
power and creating healthier more
0:23
fulfilling relationships so if you've
0:25
ever felt a nagging doubt about how
0:27
you're treated or if you've caught
0:29
yourself wondering why something just
0:31
doesn't feel right stick with me we're
0:34
going to break down some of the Key
0:35
signs that might mean your partner isn't
0:37
showing you the respect you deserve one
0:40
they dismiss your feelings you know that
0:42
feeling when you pour your heart out
0:43
about something that's bothering you and
0:45
instead of getting a listening ear you
0:47
get a dismissive oh come on it's not a
0:49
big deal that's a huge red flag when
0:52
your emotions and opinions are
0:53
constantly brushed aside it signals that
0:56
your feelings aren't valued imagine
0:58
sharing something important maybe you're
1:00
stressed about work or feeling down
1:02
about something personal and they
1:04
quickly change the subject or tell you
1:06
to get over it that response isn't love
1:09
it's dismissal respect means listening
1:12
even if you don't agree so if you find
1:14
yourself feeling unheard or minimized it
1:16
might be time to take a closer look at
1:18
how you're being treated two they
1:20
criticize more than they compliment
1:22
let's be real no one's perfect and
1:24
everyone has room for improvement but
1:26
there's a big difference between
1:27
constructive feedback and constant
1:29
critic criticism if you notice that your
1:31
partner focuses on your flaws over your
1:34
strengths it can wear you down over time
1:37
picture this you do something you're
1:39
proud of a project at work A Creative
1:42
Endeavor or even a Personal Achievement
1:45
and instead of celebrating they point
1:48
out a minor mistake or compare you to
1:49
someone else over time these criticisms
1:52
add up chipping away at your self-esteem
1:54
remember respect means uplifting each
1:56
other if you're constantly being told
1:59
what's wrong it's not about helping you
2:01
grow it's about keeping you small three
2:04
they make decisions without your input
2:06
in a healthy relationship both Partners
2:08
should feel involved when your partner
2:10
makes decisions that affect both of you
2:12
without even asking for your opinion
2:14
it's a sign they don't value what you
2:16
have to say think about situations like
2:18
planning a vacation choosing where to
2:20
live or even smaller day-to-day choices
2:23
if you're consistently left out of the
2:25
decision-making process it sends a
2:27
message your thoughts aren't important
2:29
respect is about partnership sharing
2:32
responsibilities ideas and decisions so
2:35
if you're finding that you're always on
2:36
the sidelines when it comes to important
2:38
decisions that's a sign to pause and
2:41
reflect four they disregard your
2:43
boundaries boundaries are essential for
2:46
any healthy relationship they're the
2:48
invisible lines that help protect your
2:49
emotional well-being when your partner
2:52
frequently crosses those lines whether
2:54
it's by invading your personal space
2:57
pushing you into uncomfortable
2:58
situations or pressuring you to do
3:00
things you're not okay with it's a clear
3:02
sign of disrespect maybe you've told
3:05
them you need some time alone or you've
3:07
asked them not to call during work hours
3:09
and they do it anyway or perhaps they
3:12
pry into topics you've made clear are
3:14
off limits over time these boundary
3:16
violations can leave you feeling drained
3:18
and undervalued your comfort should be a
3:20
priority and if it isn't that's a sign
3:23
you deserve to set firmer limits or even
3:25
reconsider the relationship five they
3:28
frequently compare you to others
3:30
comparisons can be subtle yet
3:32
devastating if your partner often
3:34
Compares you unfavorably to someone else
3:37
whether it's an ex a friend or even a
3:39
celebrity it's a clear sign that they're
3:41
not celebrating you for who you are
3:44
imagine you receive a compliment from a
3:46
coworker or achieve something special
3:49
and instead of being happy for you your
3:51
partner says something like why can't
3:54
you be more like so and so it might
3:57
start off as a casual remark but if it
3:59
be becomes a pattern it chips away at
4:01
your selfworth you deserve to be seen
4:03
for your unique qualities no one should
4:05
make you feel like you're always falling
4:07
short of an impossible standard six they
4:10
avoid responsibility for their actions a
4:12
relationship should be a safe space
4:14
where both Partners can take
4:15
responsibility and grow but if your
4:18
partner constantly blames you for things
4:20
that go wrong or refuses to own up to
4:22
their mistakes it can indicate a lack of
4:25
respect for example if something goes
4:28
arai and instead of a apologizing or
4:30
finding a solution together they say
4:33
it's your fault or I wouldn't have done
4:35
that if you hadn't that's deflecting
4:38
responsibility this kind of behavior not
4:40
only creates tension but also erodes
4:42
trust respect means owning your actions
4:45
both the good and the bad when someone
4:47
refuses to do that it's a sign they're
4:49
not fully invested in the relationship
4:52
seven they don't support your dreams a
4:54
partner who respects you will support
4:56
your aspirations and encourage you to
4:57
pursue your passions but but if your
5:00
partner constantly dismisses your goals
5:02
or makes you feel like your dreams are
5:03
unrealistic or unimportant that's a
5:06
major red flag imagine you share your
5:09
excitement about a new project a hobby
5:11
or a career move and instead of genuine
5:14
support you get comments like that won't
5:16
work out or you're just dreaming it can
5:19
feel like a personal attack on your
5:21
ambition when you're with someone who
5:23
doesn't lift you up you lose a vital
5:25
source of motivation your partner should
5:27
be one of your biggest cheerleaders if
5:30
they're not it's time to question if
5:32
they truly value your growth eight they
5:35
rarely apologize or show remorse
5:37
nobody's perfect and everyone makes
5:39
mistakes but a respectful partner
5:41
understands the value of a sincere
5:43
apology when things go wrong if your
5:45
partner never apologizes or if their
5:47
apologies always come with excuses it
5:50
may mean they're unwilling to accept
5:52
accountability a real apology isn't just
5:54
about saying I'm sorry it's about
5:56
acknowledging the hurt understanding why
5:58
it happened and making a genuine effort
6:01
to do better next time when apologies
6:03
are missing or feel insincere it's a
6:06
sign that your partner might not fully
6:07
respect your feelings or the impact of
6:10
their actions nine they withhold
6:12
affection as a form of punishment love
6:14
should be warm and consistent if you
6:16
notice that your partner uses affection
6:18
as a tool to control or punish you like
6:21
giving you the silent treatment or
6:22
withholding love when you disagree it's
6:25
a clear sign of disrespect imagine that
6:27
every time you express your feelings or
6:29
stand up for yourself they suddenly
6:31
become distant or cold it sends a
6:34
message that affection is something you
6:35
have to earn rather than something
6:37
that's freely given this kind of
6:39
behavior can make you feel insecure and
6:41
undervalued respect means offering
6:43
support and care not using intimacy as a
6:46
bargaining chip 10 you feel constantly
6:49
drained and unhappy at the end of the
6:51
day one of the most telling signs is how
6:53
you feel when you're with your partner
6:55
do you walk away feeling uplifted or do
6:57
you feel emotionally drained if every
6:59
interaction leaves you feeling worse
7:01
that's a huge red flag relationships are
7:03
meant to be a source of strength comfort
7:06
and joy not constant stress self-doubt
7:09
or sadness when you start to feel that
7:11
your emotional well-being is compromised
7:13
every time you're with them it's a sign
7:16
you're not being respected you deserve a
7:18
partner who leaves you feeling energized
7:20
appreciated and secure bringing it all
7:23
together let's be real respect in a
7:26
relationship isn't just a nice to have
7:28
it's essential it's the Foundation that
7:30
lets love flourish and Trust grow when
7:32
your partner shows you respect you feel
7:34
seen heard and valued but if you're
7:37
noticing these signs dismissed feelings
7:40
constant criticism boundary violations
7:42
and a lack of support it might be time
7:44
to step back and re-evaluate what you
7:47
deserve these aren't just random
7:49
behaviors they're signals that your
7:51
partner's actions are impacting your
7:52
self-worth and emotional health and
7:55
while every relationship has its ups and
7:57
downs if you consistently feel
7:59
disrespected it's a call to protect
8:01
yourself and your energy trust your gut
8:04
if something feels off it probably is
8:07
remember you're not obligated to
8:08
tolerate behavior that leaves you
8:10
feeling small or unappreciated a
8:12
relationship should Empower you not
8:14
drain you surround yourself with people
8:16

celebrate your WIS support your dreams
8:21
and acknowledge your feelings without
8:23
belittling them if you're in a
8:24
relationship where these signs are
8:26
present it might be time to have an
8:30
sometimes people aren't even aware of
8:31
how their words or actions come off but
8:34
if the behavior continues despite open
8:36
honest communication know that you have
8:39
every right to demand the respect you

deserve and here's a little advice focus
8:43
on your own growth cultivate self-
8:45
respect and build a life where your
8:47
happiness isn't tied solely to someone
8:49

8:51
yourself the clearer it becomes whether
8:53
a relationship is truly healthy what can
8:56
you do reflect on your feelings take a
8:59
moment to ask yourself how do I really
9:02
feel after spending time with my partner
9:04
trust your inner voice set clear
9:07
boundaries know what you're willing to
9:09
accept and what you're not if boundaries
9:11
are repeatedly crossed it's a sign to
9:13
rethink the relationship communicate
9:15
honestly if you feel safe enough share
9:18
how you feel with your partner use eye
9:20
statements like I feel hurt when my

opinions are dismissed seek support talk

prioritize yourself remember that you
9:37
deserve love and respect don't settle

anyone dim your light or make you feel

less than you are if you're constantly
9:51

9:53
undervalued it's a sign that things need
9:56
to change whether that means a serious
9:58
conversation or or sometimes walking

away wrapping it up I hope this

conversation has given you some clarity
10:04
on what respect in a relationship really
