Why men say they don't get a lot of compliments when their partners actually compliments them?

plus , women are more great at expressing their feelings verbally , so it might be expressed as a compliment , why guys say that they don't often get compliments? or rarely do? they're lying at this too?

so it's easy to get a compliment bc women are more expressive

Well, honestly when you are being criticized or feel like you are being judged all the time... compliments seem hollow less meaningful. Don't tell me you love me, then 5 minutes later complain about how you feel or what you don't like it when do this or say that. Because woman let me tell you, you say a lot of stuff that I let slide because I am a nice person, like that.

Like I have dated a lot of women, and I mean there are things I could choose to complain about, but don't because it's not nice. But then they feel the need to call you out all the time... and you think to yourself, are you serious? You want me to validate or respect your feelings, but at the same time does my perspective even matter to you?

Same reason why women say they don't get a lot of compliments when their partners and online simps actually compliments them.
