I sent mine the following text message:
I just deadlifted my bodyweight. Don't tell me how much you used to deadlift, just tell me "Good Job".
I think that's the same with a lot of people. Good for you to telling him what you needed and good for you for deadlifting yoru weight! Wow!
Good on him by responding in a very supportive way!0 -

Good Job and That is Awesome.
Yup, guys mostly have no clue what women want/need to hear.
I always think of the scene from "White Men Can't Jump" where Rosie Perez is explaining that when she is thirsty she does not want a drink of water but to be understood how it feels to also be thirsty.0 -
When we first got married and I would tell my husband about how I was feeling his first responce was to fit it. It took me a while to explain to him I do not want to be silenced by a solution. I can get my own solution. I just want to talk or complain about it and be understood. He now does not try to be the fixer unless I ask for help. Its so much better now. Men to need to be taught this. Its ok, they just truely don't know. Good life lesson for both men and women.0

WOW! Good job! I am in awe.0

I do this a lot. When he starts telling me about other women that are attractive, I remind him to add "But not as hot as you, honey".0

And the best part of that scene is he threw the water in her face. :bigsmile:0 -
Love the message, and love the accomplishment.
I made a promise when we started dating that I would always let my husband know when I was giving him a hint. They usually took the form of HTML.
IE... <hint> I would like to go out to Chili's tonight. </hint>0
