“date my girlfriend, realizing her lack of effort with my family”

My girlfriend has consistently refused to put in effort with my family, dodging visits and events, and prioritizing her own needs over mine

What I wish I knew
"she would be willing to make an effort to connect with my family"
If I could tell you one thing
"communicate openly and honestly with your partner about your needs and boundaries"
