That is one of the complaints that came up during an R conversation early on. She feels like I was pulling away from her emotionally and ignoring her -- which I probably was, thanks to the stress of my job and putting my energy into playing WoW -- and she's also a person who needs words of affirmation. So I say a simple "I love you" every so often.
It may be construed as pursuing, but it's also a 180 for me; my family was not emotionally expressive growing up, and my wife has worked on me in the past to tell her how I feel.
