Hey eirinn, so out of curiosity ur husband ... How often does he offer to do 'little' things for You that you could just as easily do...when my wife actual ly rejects my offers over the last year in would take it very hard as a failure or something stupid. I know that when wife does 'allow' little things AND she shows appreciation I feel awesome. Now maybe that was the CD talking but it is the same for others too so maybe not entirely so.
