I was just wondering, have you been able to share with NG any of the ideas of the Love Languages books? Just the idea that what may not be important to him (say, card and gift exchanges), MAY well be important to you, and that we all need to try to give people what they want, not just what we feel like giving?
One of my friends loves schmalzy, IMO, hideously twee Hallmark style cards, and I don't. But when choosing a card for her, I just steal myself and get the kind I think she would like. I have done this for years, and she loves them. It didn't really click that this works for most things, not just cards. And not just matters of 'taste'.
Many guys are just not that into card giving, leaving notes, little gifts, marking special occasions etc. Is NG one of those, or has he just changed recently?
