    hi i have a wonderful gurlfriend but i have one major issue with her, anytime i bring up an idea that i had she completely dismisses it immediately and it drives me mental the worst thing is that i know that if someone else said the same thing to her she would actually think about it but when it comes to me she never gives it a second thought. Am i being petty here

    It sounds like she is the petty one.

    Are your ideas naive or foolish?

    how long have you been together, sounds like she takes you for granted. have you said anything to her? how does she dismiss them, is she condesending or just breezy?

    No. Unless you're perceiving it as happening more often than it actually is, or something like that, I'd say that would be a pretty serious thing.

    I agree with the suggestion that she's taking you for granted, OP. I've had similar experiences with long term friends. I'd say you should talk to her about it, let her know that it irritates you and is rude. If nothing else, your suggestions are as valid as the next persons, and should be treated accordingly.
