Thank you Young at Heart. I have read your thread and some of your posts and I appreciate your willingness to share your story and perspective. You and others here have helped me feel more compassion for my husband.
I have not read The 5 Languages of Love yet but can predict that my husband's primary language is also touch. I recognize this about him and make efforts to be affectionate with him. He probably has never thought about what actions might help me to feel more loved, and it would probably be helpful for me to read the book so I can determine mine and use that to help him understand what I need. He is not likely to be willing to read the book.
