[quote=Anonymous]What helped me was something I read that discussed how most married men could not articulate how important their spouse was to them, and how just knowing that their spouse was at home puttering around or gardening or doing whatever was so enormously comforting and essential to their wellbeing, even if there was no direct interaction going on. My husband has said that he "hates" it when I am away, and I'm like, "Why?? It's not like we're doing much of anything most nights." But after I read that I realized that he just derives comfort from knowing I'm around and that he must assume the same is true for me; which is to say, he may not see the need for talk/overt acts of affection because to him it's all unspoken and implicit and largely about being present.
