All that matters to me in a relationship is true love (not the sexual, called lust), honesty,respect and loyalty.
That's what my husband wants too,

I agree that LOVE, RESPECT & LOYALTY is more important within a marraige.... but then again some times we tend to lose track of the other people and we just need a little reminder, hence the reason for my post.
(a gentle reminder to ourselves on how to be good to each other - within a love relationship).


LoVe,
Rhapsody -

You got THAT right, Roe! It's TWO-WAY street!

YES............... hence the thread for HIM.
I have never been for HIM only - it goes both ways.... but someone has to start the ball rolling and I was a woman looking at it from my POV, not his - that of which I am not (for sure).


LoVe,
Rhapsody -

<font color="purple"> Rhapsody~ I just wanted to say that I support this thread that you started.... I am struggling in this department and I know how it feels to want to feel appreciated and loved and by doing spontanious simple gestures towards my husband brings me closer to him as he craves it too... So this has helped me see that.... so I thank you!!!! </font>

I agree.. this is a great thread... Is always good to do something special for those we love... No matter how big or how little, it is the thought that counts, esp if it comes from the heart.......

I am sorry I was being silly in your thread. I did put it was a cute idea. I was just talking about my hubby being a goof with the pot. Not knocking your idea I really do think it's cute. I want to add though good pot or not I do not think I would ever feel safe using it again. We had water in the basement and who knows whats in it

Now, back to your thread

I leave notes for my husband in silly places like his socks and undies
I never sleep in dumpy looking nightwear
I smell good
I like to joke with him
We talk about his job and intrests often.
I do tell him when he does something how much I appreciate it and I NEVER fail to thank him even for everyday things like thowing the wash in or checking my oil.
I try to let him know he is a good provider too

Again, I am sorry and wanted to let you know this in public. I did not intend to hurt you or your thread in any way.

THANK YOU so much for your thoughts and support - I will take this as my birthday GIFT for today..... and thank you for seeing what my thread was meant to be all about....

TIPS for ROMANCING the SPOUSE / BF and not a fix all to any relationship, but rather a hint of LoVe on bonding.... a helping tool.

YOU are APPRECIATED by ME!!
(and the many others that are supporting me in this thread or thru PM) - (I am HAPPY!)

LoVe,
Rhapsody -

Me on.......

TIP of the DAY -

* * * * * * * *

Using dry-erase markers, leave a note to your sweetie on the bathroom mirror

I have used lipstiick on the bathroom mirror to write a love message to my hubby.... He loved it!!!!!! I have even used the kids washable markers..... LOL My girls started leaving daddy I love you messages too after that!!! He thought it was so sweet )

That is so SWEET - your little is one learning to care and to be open to another persons feelings.... YOU are doing a good thing there, teaching her well.

LoVe,

TIP of the DAY -

Compliment your husband in front of others. You may be the only one in his life who’s doing it.

Lol. Yeah that is sweet :-) I think everyone likes to hear nice things :-)

Guys... Can have a fair amount of their ego invested / tied up in sex too... It is a guy thing lol. In the same way that lots of guys like to feel appreciated as providers they like to feel appreciated sexually too.

Just a thought...

(This applied to girls too I guess... I'm thinking here of how there is a general tendency though... That girls like to feel intimate (or romantic) before having sex... Whereas guys tend to want to have sex in order to feel more intimate (or romantic). Kinda strange... But I have some sympathy).

YES.... by all means different, but NEVER strange for in the end they both mean the same thing (the same emotional need) - bonding intimately with the one you LoVe.
