My husband doesn't show affection???????

You should read up on the different love languages. Affection, Compliments, Gifts, Services and Time Together. These are the five ways we express or feel love.

Your husband is most likely services. That means for him to FEEL loved, you must do work for him. Make his lunch, clean the house... etc. My mother in law is nearly 100% like this.

The trick with this is that you have to speak someone elses love language and not your own. He need services so that's how HE thinks he should show you. Then again, you may snuggle him thinking he finds this as an act of love, but he hears nothing. But make a great dinner and you are his hero.

I'd get the book and demonstrate how you are speaking his love language while requiring something different.

Unfortunately, trying to get a non affectionate person to be affectionate is rarely successful. That is the one love language that is hard to 'do anyway'.

This whole issue is why many people think everything is fine and then find their child has run away, spouse left or someone cheated. One person never heard their love language spoken.

If he's always been this way he won't likely change. You still married him right? So look at the good side he has that made you love and marry him

Mine is the same way to. I wondered the same as you. But I guess that is just who he is. It always wasn't this way just overtime. I wouldn't take it to heart and think he doesn't care about you.

its probably just the way he is. my boyfriend of 6 yrs is just like that. don't take it to heart. that's just who he is. maybe he doesn't know how to be affectionate.
