[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since no one has mentioned love languages yet, I'll be the one to do it.

OP, have you read Gary Chapman's book The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts?

It sounds like your love language -- and maybe your therapist's? -- may be acts of service. It seems that you have done a lot, whether referred to as helping or as sharing responsibilities, yet it doesn't make your wife feel loved.

She may have a different love language such as needing words of affirmation or craving physical touch. Praise of all you love about her, or a massage each day, may mean more to her than all the chores you do around the house. [/quote]

Or, she made need to know that she can trust her husband to not reach out to an ex and rekindle feelings by flirting.

I'm sure this dude wouldn't be cool if he found flirty exchanges between his wife and her ex. This is a big deal. Period. [/quote]

Oh, it is just flirting. Flirty exchange. Nothing actually happened. OP, did you WANT it to happen? if she'd been next door would it have happened?[/quote]

Married people shouldn't reach out to their ex. Period.

And there's no way to convince someone that it was merely harmless flirting that would never lead to anything---so that's why you don't reach out and flirt in the first place.

Are you people young or just stupid? I feel like this is Marriage 101 stuff. [/quote]
