I try to find out your needs. I know the massage, but often i dont offer it because it is bound to sex. Ican listen to your sorgen but i cannot say anything because my words would not hit your needs.
All i can offer you are physical things: like hold your hand, touch you massage you neck ...

i do see it clearer now. basically i need words cause as you have guessed it is words going into my heart. compare it with male eye connection to their best friend. female have a direct connection ear-heart. so let us find out what words you could speak to sooth me when i am down. i am sorry you feel your words do not fulfill my needs and i wonder how it can be that your words can damage me so much - i think we can both do a lot better. if your words can be capable to hurt me, than your words are capable to sooth me. hugs

Kisses n massages.
Hold me from behind and whisper U got me babe
He makes it low and pisses me off a lot lately. I know that he tries with a candlelit dinner and rose petals, and he rubbed my feet once, which was heavenly. If he'd just help me, and see some things from my perspective, maybe I wouldn't be so angry. If I like a clean house, why not just give in a little and help me keep it that way, since it benefits everyone in the end? That way, I'll enjoy the rose petals and stuff more.
I pretty much am there now and unfortunately he is the one who put me here.
My wife tell me to keep my head up move forward and also she is always there for me do I won't be so depressed
Tells me hes here to listen when and if I'm ready.
She does all kinds of stuff
My husband asks if there is anything that he can do. He offers conversation, hot coffee or physical attention. But, most importantly he gives me space to think.
