It took a very long time after the affair and the reconciliation before my H said he loved me. And, I think he did it because I asked. But I know he loves me. I see it in the way he greets me when we've been separated, and the way he ML to me. And a lot of little ways. My H is not much of a talker. I accept that in him. On the other hand, I remember waiting all those months to hear him say it, and then wondering after why it made such a difference to me. i'm OK now without hearing it.
