# You get what you give. When you give better, you get better.
Seems like this would be a good way forward for both you and your wife. Don't analyse it, just do it and don't expect anything in return. Sounds like your wife is practicing this right now and none of it sounds false as its more than just an ILY its also other acts of love. Accept it, appreciate it, find ways to do the same and be prepared for your R to grow,
