I agree that actions are better than words - but when you hardly spend time with the person it's not easy. That is why I sometimes text to inquire how he is - because sometimes it is the only way I have. And I don't do it daily or go over the top, just want him to know that I'm thinking of him.
I could shower him with gifts to show I care, but that doesn't seem real appropriate. He's a 'words of affirmation' person - and I do when I can, but again, when you aren't around someone much you don't have many things to compliment.
Suggestions are always welcomed.
I have let him lead the way on affection and until recently we always hugged. Then when I started pulling back, hugs got fewer, and things felt akward. This morning he came to get D off to daycare, as I was leaving I hugged him - and he hugged back.
The small group was great, a great group of ladies, look forward to these weekly meetings now. And they also get together for outings, etc. Most of the husbands meet in a mens group at the same time, so the ladies were asking if my H would join them. I just said that he isn't that into organized religion - which is true. D had a good time playing with the other kids in the nursery there too - this will be good for her too.
