    Say I Love You everyday.

    Don't take advantage of - pick up your socks, carry things up/down the steps, when you finish the salt, pepper, etc and it needs refiled, then do it yourself and don't save it for her. Carry your clothes to the laundry. Do things without being asked. Don't do what a lot of men do and refer to their wives or gf as "crazy" when they voice their opinion or ask you a question. LISTEN & try not to do the infamous "focal tune-out" to your wife's voice. Random notes with even a smiley face. A random text will work to with a "just thinking of you"... it doesn't really take much - at least not for me. Respect is what I would cherish most.

    Do this. I would suggest using correct grammar also, but that's just me.

    Oh my goodness, I love this!

    Give her the high, hard one. Always works for me...

    I've got 6 children, I've got to be careful with that one...

    Why are you asking us? There's like a ton of people on here with a ton of different views and feelings on how you should treat/love your wife. If youre a Christian then go to the Bible for your answers don't ask the internet.

    I would suggest reading the Love Languages book with her, and asking her to identify what makes her feel the most loved by you, since we are all different. I can tell you that I would have LOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEDDDD it if my husband had ever asked me what he could do to make me feel loved. LOOOOVVVVEEED it. Your interest alone would say alot to her.

    Buy the book 5 love languages

    http://www.5lovelanguages.com/

    Love her the way she need to be loved. There is no one size fit all here. For me Acts of Service is my love language.........for my bf is it physical touch. If I love him the way I want to be loved....it won't work because we do not speak the same love language.

    This! We read this book before we got married (17 years ago) and I always think back to it. For me it's the physical touch and for him it's the acts of service. It helps if you both read it and discuss it so you are sure what the other person is. Don't guess.

    So...showing her your boner isn't saying "I love you"? I'm confused.

    Ok - I see now that I wasn't the first to suggest the love languages book. That's definitely what you should do.:smile:

    2. Put the seat down and do not pee on it.

    With three women living with me, I don't even try standing anymore

    My husband kisses my forehead when he see's me, holds my hand when we're grocery shopping, tucks in my shoulder when we lay down for bed, never leaves the toilet seat up. Knows everything about me down to what underwear I like to buy, knows what I want for birthday dinner without asking, pats my bum when I'm in the kitchen, gets up so I can have the comfy spot in the living room, texts me when we're not together, lets me know he got to work safely and calls me when he leaves to come home. He sticks up for me, is my biggest fan, doesn't ***** about me to his friends... and a whole lot more! It's the little things. :)

    Married 38 years now.

    What I want? Hold my hand when we walk through the parking lot or wherever. Say "I love you" before I do, not only as a response to me saying it first. Let me know you still want me.

    What he already does right? Supports me 100% in my weight loss journey (and loved me even at my biggest). Exercises with me. Pays attention to what I'm eating or need to eat to get my calories for the day. Is busting his behind to find a job so I'm not the sole income. Goes to church with me. Because he's currently unemployed, cleans and cooks. Is a great father and grandfather. I could go on and on, but I think you get the idea. Good luck!

    Lap dance?

    Porn?

    Get her a pet?

    No really you should just ask her what makes her happy.. then decide from there which kind of porn is best..!

    Good Luck

    I would tell you, but seeing as you're a religious man, I doubt it's something you would consider.

    Hmmm... maybe not with you, but with my wife, anything goes. :laugh:

    Touching, not necessarily sexual, but, caressing, like when she's cooking and you just walk up and put your arms around her...

    Or, if you want to get kicked in the junk, you can do this, I guess. It's romanticized in movies. 'I'm stirring soup and you've got your arms around my waist and it's so sweet and I'm totally gonna remember this and give you good lovin' later...' but honestly, I'm focused on something and if you don't want me to burn it, I'd suggest moving back. No, further.

    Honestly, everyone is different. Have you tried asking HER how you can make her feel more appreciated?

    Don't know if anyone said this already, but read the book 5 Love Languages. There is a test that couples can take in order to find out their love language http://www.5lovelanguages.com/assessments/30-second-quizzes/love/ Everyone has different love languages whether it be acts of service, physical touch, quality time, words of affirmation and/or gifts. So the both of you take the quiz and find out what it is and learn to speak it! Good luck!

    Edited: I see that it already has been mentioned! Oh well! Worth repeating!
