My partner and I have been together for a while, but I feel like they are not as emotionally invested in the relationship as I am. How can I make my partner more dependent on me by evoking sympathy?

Showing your partner how much you care about them is a great way to evoke sympathy. Doing thoughtful gestures such as sending unexpected gifts or taking them out on surprise dates will show how much you value the relationship. Also, expressing gratitude and appreciation towards them for the small things that they do can make them feel more appreciated and increase their emotional investment in the relationship.

One way to evoke sympathy in your partner and make them more emotionally invested in the relationship is to express gratitude for being valued and appreciated. Other tactics include expressing loneliness when you are separated, conveying needs for understanding and reassurance, creating an “us against the world” mentality and making plans for the future that mutually benefit both of you.
