    Lucky wifes! Obviously marriages work out best when sex drive and compliments are equal and balanced for both partners. Any advice on how to "train" my hubby?

    I'm not a fella and I don't want to stir anything up, but when was the last time you made a solid effort to do something sexy for your husband? When was the last time you told him he was sexy?

    boom goes the dynamite.

    1 When is the last time you thought your wife was sexy?

    2 When is the last time you told her?

    1. Last night...

    2. While she was climbing on top of me... "My exact words were, 'You just don't understand how awesome you are.'"

    Don't have one...

    But letting your S.O. know they are attractive is important.

    My husband tells me I'm "hot" several times a day. I am convinced he's telling me the truth because I get A LOT of positive attention. :wink: The feeling is mutual. You gotta give love to get it. :love:


    ETA: By "telling" me, I mean verbally, physically, or maybe even just a wink. There are many ways to communicate attraction.

    Typically (emphasis on typically) women trend towards having strong emotional needs and men trend towards having strong physical needs. If the emotional needs of a woman are met, they often explode into physical demonstration of that met need. Conversely, if a man's physical needs are met, they tend to be a helluva lot more emotionally connected.

    DING! DING! DING!

    I'm a wife & my husband is VERY busy with work & stressed but he tells & shows me often! I never doubt his attraction towards me... Now, as far as being emotionally "constipated" as u put it, ya! My husband doesn't express luv & care very well or any of those types of things... :ohwell: I think it's just his personality... nothing personal 2 do with me...

    Now I'm not saying that every time I get a compliment we are going to have sex. BUT more compliments would more likely mean more sex. I actually have tried giving him compliments but he brushes me off and then doesn't reciprocate.

    ok, so maybe he doesn't like compliments... what DOES he like? What is important to him?

    When you get a person a present for Christmas, do you buy them what you want, or what they want?
    And when you give them the present, is it solely because you want one in return?

    The act of giving should not be tied to the act of receiving.

    His love language is acts of service. So I clean and cook meals and such. Making stuffed peppers from scratch right now and I don't even like green peppers. It's hard to continue to meet someone else's needs when your needs aren't being met. The problem with your spouse speaking a different love language is that you don't really get a charge out of meeting their needs. Your spouse needs to reciprocate in your love language or there is a break down.
