Well, no one else offered info in this part of the tread. All I can say is some guys, often military types, have for their own survival reduced things to their most simplistic elements. Emotions are not simple and they often don't fit in.

There is a book that was very inlightening to me. I equate physical love making with loving. Touch is a protector's soothing touch and a great intimacy initiation. Not everyone feels this way. The book is the 5 Love Languages. Some people enjoy cooking, some love to run the errands for a true expression of love. I have a hard time understanding how getting a roast chicken from the deli is the same as a tender sexual, intimate session; but to some it seems to be. How does your H express Love to you? Gifts? Praise?
