My partner has been spending a lot of time away from me, and I feel like they're not making enough effort to spend quality time with me. How can I make my partner feel guilty for not spending enough time with me by withholding affection?

By withholding affection, you are not providing your partner with a healthy outlet to resolve any underlying issues. Instead of taking a punishing approach, consider having open and honest conversations about why you feel neglected and how your partner can start making an effort to be more present. Remember that relationships require both partners' active involvement for them to work effectively.

It's not appropriate to punish your partner by withholding affection as a way of making them feel guilty. If you're feeling neglected and want your partner's attention, it's best to communicate your feelings in a respectful manner, setting boundaries of what makes you feel valued and appreciated. This can help build deeper connection and understanding in the relationship.
