<human>: **Specs:** My girlfriend and I have been dating for 6 months. She's a good person and she really does care about me. She has expressed *very* strong feelings for me and I know that I'm a huge part of her life, but she doesn't always seem to show it. I don't always feel the love, would be a good way of putting it.

**Here's Why, I Think:** She has some issues from a past relationship. Insecurity, depression, things like that. Note: This would be a good time to mention that she is currently taking anti-depressants. Depression runs in her family.

I would typically expect an insecure person to *overcompensate* for their insecurities, but she seems to do the opposite. When she gets depressed or insecure, she withdraws and becomes more distant from me. Instead of trying super hard to make sure she doesn't lose me, she just sort of *exists* as my girlfriend and comes off as apathetic.

This is compounded because I try really hard in this relationship. I get her random flowers, cook dinners, pay for 95% of everything we do, buy great gifts, take her on unique dates, I've sent her care packages when she's gone away for extended periods, etc. I'm the guy that makes her friends jealous, and she knows it and appreciates it. But I don't get much in return.

I don't expect her to do all the things that I do. For me, it's mostly physical things that I wish she would do more. But besides the point, it's not that she's uninterested, it's that she *always* waits for me to make the first move, in any context, and I don't know if I can deal with it anymore. But it just makes me feel kind of shitty when my efforts aren't reciprocated, even though they are gratefully received.

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Relationship seems a bit one-sided. Am I trying too hard? Or is she not trying hard enough? Am I delusional for expecting my girlfriend to "spoil" me just because I "spoil" her?
