The #1 Sign Someone Needs More Reassurance in Their Relationship, a Psychotherapist Says
"Do you even love me?!" you might ask your partner, laughing in an overly dramatic way. But even if you're just kidding, the impulse to ask such a question gets to the root of the anxiety that many of us deal with from time to Josephson, LCSW, author of Are You Mad at Me? How to Stop Focusing on What Others Think and Start Living for You, shares that seeking reassurance in a relationship is a super common behavior—but it's not always the best or healthiest way to communicate, and it doesn't always lead to the healthiest patterns she tells Parade why some individuals need more reassurance from their spouse or partner, the difference between reassurance vs. validation, how to ask your significant other for validation and so much more. Get ready, we're digging deep!Related: What Does Reassurance in a Relationship Look Like? "Reassurance is when we're seeking immediate external relief from the otherperson, and it's usually not leading to a greater conversation," Josephson tells Parade. "It's quick, like, 'Are you mad at me?' or 'Do you still love me?' or 'Do you think I'm pretty?' And the other person might then give reassurance ('I'm not mad at you!' / 'Yes, I love you!' / 'Yes, you're pretty!') and it feels soothing for a moment, but because the deeper emotion wasn't addressed, the craving for the reassurance often comes back pretty quickly."We all have our moments of insecurity, but this type of exchange can become more common for some couples. "Reassurance seeking can become quite addictive in that way, and can put a strain on a relationship when it's a constant pattern," she explains. Related: Why Do Some Individuals Need More Reassurance in a Relationship? "People who have deep attachment wounding tend to seek more reassurance in the relationship," Josephson explains. "That silence or neutrality can activate a feeling of: 'Do they still love me? Are they going to leave? Did I ruin everything?', triggering the need for reassurance to know that everything is okay." This is often rooted in childhood trauma."This is especially true if you grew up in a home that was volatile, unpredictable or you had caregivers who were emotionally absent or neglectful," she continues. "If you couldn't trust that they'd be there—physically or emotionally—it can trigger the fear that anyone could leave."Related: People Who Were Constantly Criticized as Children Often Experience These 8 Relationship Problems, Psychologists Say Reassurance vs. Validation "It's important to distinguish reassurance from validation," Josephson stresses. "Validation gets to the feeling beneath the reassurance. So if we wanted to ask, 'Do you still love me?,' maybe the feeling beneath that is, 'We haven't had some quality time in a while. I'm feeling lonely and far from you.'"Reassurance looks more like that quick-exchange-pattern that was referenced earlier. Validation, on the other hand, takes more time and intentionality."When we can instead seek validation, we're letting it be a conversation, a deeper understanding into each other's emotions and needs," she explains. "Validation might still include some reassurance ('Of course I love you!') but it's also getting to the deeper emotion beneath the craving for reassurance. It's saying to the other person: 'I hear you and want to understand what you're feeling.' Excessive reassurance can lead to more distance because it can put a strain on the relationship; validation leads to more closeness because it's an opening for understanding."Related: The #1 Sign Someone Needs More Reassurance in a Relationship, According to a Psychotherapist "Usually, a sign that someone wants reassurance [or] validation is when they're feeling anxious, lonely, insecure or feel an urge to cling to the other person," Josephson says. While you can use those feelings as motivation to have a deeper conversation with your partner, they're also a useful flag to self-reflect as well."It's also important to validate ourselves, to know how to soothe ourselves in moments of anxiety," she explains. "We may still seek validation from the other person, but also being able to look inward and say, 'I'm feeling anxious right now' or 'I'm feeling lonely right now' and be able to take a deep breath, go for a walk [or] put our phone down."Related: How To Ask for Validation or Reassurance from Your Partner in a Healthy Way According to Josephson, before asking your partner for validation or reassurance, you should first look inward and identify the emotion you're feeling—whether it's anxiety, resentment, loneliness or something else. "Are you wanting the other person to listen or are you asking for something more?" she she recommends expressing that emotion to the other person in a way that comes from "I," giving these specific examples: "I noticed that you didn't text me back for a few hours during the day, and it made me feel anxious." "I started to worry if you were mad at me. I just wanted to share that with you." "[It's] letting the other person in on the emotion, versus asking them to extinguish it with quick reassurance," Josephson How To Give Your Partner Healthy Reassurance or Validation "Validation will likely still include some reassurance ('I'm not mad at you!'), but because the person seeking reassurance is likely feeling quite anxious and urgent, it's important to slow down with them," Josephson explains. She suggests the following tactics: When the partner is seeking reassurance, maybe asking them: "What are you feeling right now?" Or, "What do you need from me?" Or, "What feels soothing to you in those moments?" (Opening up the conversation versus having it all fall on you, the partner, to reassure them.) Validate their emotions, such as: "Thank you for sharing that with me / That sounds really hard / That makes sense that you're feeling that way / I'm listening." Focus more on being with the emotion with the partner and slowing down with it, instead of trying to shoo it away with reassurance.

Women are sick of 'mankeeping.' Here's how you can avoid emotional labour in relationships — plus how to know if you're doing too much
'I know why you're doing that," my friend said. "But I really hate how women do so much emotional labour in dating.' Recently, I was telling a friend how I'd been coming up with 'fun' get-to-know-each-other questions for the guy I was seeing. It was my idea, and I'd been sending them daily to him. 'I know why you're doing that," my friend said. 'But I really hate how women do so much emotional labour in dating.' The comment made me pause. Was something as simple as a fun prompt really me doing emotional labour? How can you tell if you're doing it, and if you're doing too much? Read on to learn more. What is emotional labour? What's 'mankeeping'? According to Dené Logan, a marriage and family therapist, emotional labour includes navigating what's happening beneath the surface in a relationship and tending to the 'felt' space. 'This can be the work of building deeper layers of intimacy, talking about the challenging things we might feel tempted to sweep under the rug or being willing to explore historic behaviour patterns or childhood survival strategies that inevitably surface in our romantic dynamics,' she explained. That's all in addition to other tasks like maintaining the household — planning family reunions, making dentist appointments, keeping the fridge stocked — and continuously checking in on the relationship. This kind of unseen effort — recently dubbed 'mankeeping' by Stanford University researchers — often falls to women in heterosexual relationships. It goes beyond remembering birthdays or coordinating social plans; it means acting as your partner's one-person support system. The 'fun' questions I was sending to the guy I was seeing was my way of filling a gap I felt in our connection. Even after he told me he was open to deepening our conversations, he never came up with his own solution. It fell on me — or so I felt — to keep the communication and connection alive. I never even questioned it. Why emotional labour is so natural for women For many women dating in their 40s and beyond, especially those coming out of long-term relationships or marriages, leaning heavily on emotional labour can come naturally. This isn't surprising: Research shows that women are also disproportionately tasked with invisible, unpaid labour in other areas of life, including work. Logan said these patterns have deep cultural roots. Women have long been socialized to stay connected to their emotions and to articulate them, while men are often taught that expressing feelings can signal weakness and must be avoided to perform masculinity. 'Our culture teaches men that their masculinity isn't an inherent aspect of who they are, but rather something that must be constantly proven in a performative way,' she said. 'This has led to a generation of men who became a bit atrophied in their ability to articulate and understand the deeper layers of what they are feeling.' As a result, she said, women frequently carry the bulk of emotional work at home, at the workplace and in dating. Questions about dating over 40, marriage, divorce or anything else? We want to hear from you. Email us at relationship-questions@ and your question could be featured in an upcoming article. Wait, am I doing emotional labour in my relationship? How do you know if you're engaging in emotional labour? Basically, if it feels like you're doing the heavy lifting, you probably are. Some of the most consistent ways Logan said she sees women taking on emotional labour early in a relationship involve initiating the 'define the relationship' talk. 'That conversation creates a sense of emotional containment that is often lacking when it's not clear what we're doing here,' she said. Women also often find themselves having to be the one to raise any frustrations in a new relationship. 'Conflict resolution ... is something women are encouraged to do in their friendships, but men are socialized to experience that as a strange thing to do with other men,' she said. Emotional labour can also show up in practical ways, like making appointments, checking in on friends or family on behalf of a partner or encouraging them to nurture their other relationships. Even inviting your partner to take on more emotional labour — for example, by encouraging them to explore therapy or do their own introspective work — can still be a subtle form of 'fixing,' Logan warned. How to minimize emotional labour in a new relationship For women who are used to being the 'fixers,' nurturers or emotional caretakers, the challenge becomes unlearning those habits in dating and relationships. 'We often carry the belief, on a subconscious level, that 'if you need me, you won't leave me,'' Logan said. 'As we start to build a home within ourselves and see ourselves as the consistent force in our lives, along with a community of friends, interests and tools to stay grounded in a solid sense of self, we become less interested in filling a void we believe exists without a romantic partnership.' Logan advised trying to take note of when you're 'over-functioning,' and then intentionally stepping back from those patterns. 'If you continue to do the work on yourself and you don't 'fix' the situation, the relationship will either rise to meet you in what you discover, or it will change form as it needs to,' she said. How to find someone who doesn't make you do the heavy lifting When it comes to dating without overextending yourself emotionally, Logan said the key is to shift the focus away from simply having someone there — to finding true alignment with a partner. 'More than we like to admit, we still live in a culture where the collective belief is that people are less valuable outside of a partnership,' she said. 'But there's no lonelier feeling than being in a relationship with someone with the consistent feeling of being unable to connect emotionally.' She said that by refusing to settle for situations that exhaust you, you're reiterating that you 'matter enough to prioritize what feels good inside, over what looks good to the outside world.' Ultimately, Logan said, you're not responsible for anyone but yourself. 'What's interesting to me about this current generation of women in their 40s is that they are at an age and stage of their lives where they are feeling unwilling to parent another adult, which is essentially what an unevenly distributed amount of emotional labour ends up feeling like,' Logan said. 'They are travelling the world with girlfriends, reclaiming the time they feel they lost in marriages ... and investing less of their energetic resources into what society thinks about them being alone.' As for me? I eventually stopped seeing that guy. Looking back, I can see how much I was over-functioning — arranging dates, initiating phone calls when he was away, keeping conversations alive. At the time, I thought I was being proactive; in reality, I was compensating for his lack of effort and emotional availability. In the end, I'm glad it didn't work out. Because now I know I won't take on more than what's fair. If a man can't meet me with equal effort, he's simply not my guy.
