W asked me what I am going to get her for Valentine's Day. I was thinking about 5LL and I think if I had to guess I would say W's LLs are Gifts and Acts of Service.
Mine are probably Physical Touch and Words of Affirmation. It's no wonder I have been so angry all this time, I always complained that she never touched me and constantly criticized me. That is certainly still the case.
On the other side of the coin, I have never really put a lot of time and thought into gifts for W...acts of service I have done a lot, maybe it is the only reason she stuck around. When D4 was born for example, W was feeling sleep deprived so I did all the nights (we were taking turns getting up initially). I even sent her into the spare room so she could get a full 8 or 9 hours of completely undisturbed sleep. This went on until D4 started sleeping through the night. Don't recall exactly how long it took, but it was many months. Lately W still complains that I don't keep her car washed, although I have been making sure it always has gas in it.
Dunno why I am writing about this, just on my mind I guess. First chapter of PM was very interesting, gives me a feeling that insight is just around the corner, but I don't want to get my hopes up too much.
