You mean to tell me there's men out there that actually say things like this to their wives?
Yes!

Again, this points to what I said about women finding men in relationships attractive. Who wouldn't want to date a guy like Coach? Or Puppy? However the key is, someone LIKE them. Cause they are already taken. smile

Well. I gotta say. That makes me sad. Oh! Well no, I mean Happy for you Greek - sorry - truly I am. Just sad for my sitch. I always figured that never hearing compliments like that was kind of normal once you got married. Between that and a few other things going on...makes me wonder why I'm still trying so hard.


I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.

Words of Affirmation! Maybe your H doesn't realize (just as some men earlier in this thread) how important they are to you?


Accept that there is only one thing you can change in life and that is you

FMV, what you need to remember is that Coach and Puppy (and some others I'm sure) are HERE and already been through "the enligtening process" so it's now part of them. they SEE the need for it. May nothave recognized it as much or at all before they got here.

I wouldn't dicount the effect of "enlightening". And your H hasn't "seen" that light yet. May never. But.....

Thanks ris, but yah. He does. I've told him; I've written him a letter about it; we've even both taken the LL test. He knows. He just doesn't want to tell me. frown

This is correct. In our case, it took a bold move to help my H 'hear' what I'd been trying to communicate (ineffectively) to him for many years.

I've heard this as well.
I've heard it as well many times, both noticed by women and in the business/corporate world. Often overlooked/not given a thought by many men: worn out, scuffed, unpolished, etc. It's a sign of either laziness or paying attention to every detail.
