Hi Sandi, I have read that book and I have thought about what her LL is. Without being able to ask her, or talk about the book, I can only make my own guess as what it is. But, you are right on, after reading the book my thought is that Acts of Service is her primary LL. I look at what she did for me in our M, and what she asked of me. It is tough because all I think about is how terribly I failed in that regard. With that said, I also know that gifts are important to her, but not in a diamond ring sort of way. She always appreciated a thoughtful gift, one with meaning. Again, I failed terribly in this regard.
So yes, I know these things are important to her. She expressed her love to me through acts of services throughout our marriage, and I know she wanted more in return. What it means now, the fact that she is still expressing this love, I don’t know.
Luckily I got some quick advice here this weekend to keep myself from doing anything stupid. I can now reflect on what she did without reacting to it. I won’t go all ga-ga.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
