how special are you to your husband? what are the signs and manifestations that he still loves you and that he still cares? is it the number of times he tells you "iloveyou", "you are beautiful", "ineedyou", "i can't live without you", does he loves to hold your hands, hug and kiss you? does he keeps your picture in his wallet or save one in his laptop/computer?, how often does he treats you for a date? gives you flowers, sends you love notes/love texts or even give you a surprise call just to check if you're fine, have eaten you lunch/dinner, or just want to hear your voice and that it will make his day!
IN SILENCE... can you feel that special bond? that special love? or despite his silence and despite his "ignoring you" moments do you think he still cares? a unique way of showing his affection...no words, no actions but JUST BEING THERE... JUST BEING THERE FOR YOU, BESIDE YOU!

Hi msfrancisco,
How special am I to my husband? Let me count the ways: We have a long distance love affair , he works in another country, but he never fails to remember all our special moments together. We talk to each other on the net everyday so it's like he's never really far. On special days like birthday and anniversary, he's always the first to greet. He requires me to always send him pictures of me and my kids and he turns them into a slide show on his desktop. He makes me feel special in so many little but wonderful ways.

Hi,
I've been married for 20 years and my husband says almost everyday that he loves me. Words are easy, but the way he takes care of me shows he loves me more than words ever could. I had to go to the doctor this week, I stood on something a couple of weeks ago and cut my foot open. I thought that it wasn't a problem so I cleaned the cut and left it. The begining of this week my foot was so painful that I couldn't sleep or walk properly so I went to the doctors. The doctor had to cut my foot open and found a small piece of glass inside, he then put stiches in. During all this my husband, who can't watch hosptial dramas because the sight of blood makes him sick, stayed with me. He explained to the doctor how much pain I was in (we live in Japan and my Japanese is not good, hubby is Japanese) and asked for pain killer. When we came home hubby took care of the housework, helped with my work and made dinner, without being asked!!
That to me is love in action and makes me feel special.

Oh, I know he loves me! Lol. But the sad part is we are still 4 hours flight apart :( I am going to follow him soon, anyways. So, being apart makes us miss each other every single time. I was ill 2 weeks ago and he came to visit me immidiately. When we go out together, he never gets his hand off me. When it was raining, he stood in front of me so I didn't get wet. Well, he's my man!

I know that Im the center of his universe he tell me and shows me that everyday. I have one of the most amazing husbands and Im lucky that I have him. After 27 years of being together he never fails to let me know that Im still the one, he holds my hand, kisses me often, hugs me alot and then still shows it by working a hard job so that I can be at home with the kids.
We dont have much money so no I dont get a lot of monetary items but I dont think that is as important as his actions and words. He loves spending time with me and that shows that he not only loves me but that Im interesting after all these years.

Hello Ithink, that's great love. you're almost in your 3rd decade of being together as husband and wife and still maintain the flame of love for each other that no amount of money can ever replace it.
Cheers for more years of being so loved and special to your husband!

I was special to my husband b ecause he called me his best friend and he was always there when I needed his support. we could tell each other anything and there would be no aNger, we accepted each other the way we were, warts and all. hes gone now but my memories are so sweet and so precious. we could be silent but it was a friendly we are here together kind of silence.we had dates, we had surp rises but best of aLl we loved and we liked each other, we were best friends to the very end.

yes bestfriends are best lovers. it's so good that you find time for each other, dating, sharing and making precious memories together.
remember the theme song of the noting hill movie? "you say it best, when you say nothing at all" so enjoy every silent moment together! you are so lucky Hatley!

oh sad to hear that indahfth! in time he will realize how special you are as a person and as a wife...and how foolish he was for making you feel bad. just go on with your life and continue loving yourself.

Well just the right topic to talk about. Well we just had a petty fight yesterday night and I was alone to eat for dinner when he walked out on me because he said i was shouting at him, duhh!
I admit, it was both our mistake. He did the cooking for me and washed the dishes during lunch. I did not order that, he does things on his own. That's an advantage for me since my hubby works some chores at home even if you don't ask him to do so. He has an initiative to do work specially if it is his off day.
By the time he left the house, i said, i hope it rains so that he would get wet , and it did, it did rain, the next thing I heard was someone knocking at the door. It was him so I let him in, but i wasn't talking yet. Till he ate his food for dinner, then i got surprised he handed me a watermelon fruit to eat. So his first move did it, we were ok again. Couples do have fights, but it is just normal as long as you know how to end it and put negative things behind. I know my husband loves me, as I do love him.
We do say I love you to each other everyday, we kiss each other when he goes to work. When we sleep, we do hug just like a pillow. So the more you show your love for each other, the better.

I am treated very special by my husband. We are running to seven years of marriage, been dating for almost 6 years before that and has known each other since grade school. But until this day, I always felt very special to him. He do not let the day past without telling me many times how much he loves me, proves it to his many actions: giving flowers, giving special treats from work, cooking meals for me, thanking God everyday for me, whispering sweet nothings, holding my hand frequently, reading and studying the Bible with me and a lot more.
And yes, even in times we don't feel romantic there is that strong assurance that my husband really loves me.

My husband and I kiss before we separate each day and he says 'I love you' before we get off the phone and before we go to bed. And the old addage is true, 'don't let the sun go down on your anger.' we always try to resolve any argument before we sleep. Those are little things a husband and wife can do each day to keep the flame alive. We've been married fourteen years this week and it's almost the same as the first day! some days are better and some days are worse.

Hello msfrancisco!
I don't know...i really don't know if I am special to my husband. I never heard him said so from the day we get married. Nonetheless, I want to believe that I am special to him as "he is always there for me, beside me!" He is never showy of his affection by uttering words of endearment or giving flowers to me but oftentimes i feel the warmth of his hugs at bedtime. Yes, in his being silent i feel that special love ... i love him more!

sweetie seanbryan,
yes, you are special to your husband! it's just a matter of being so keen about how he manifests his love during his quiet moments... that hug, that warm hug at bedtime summarizes it all.

Super special.. Its not just by telling me i love you or Kissing me, he shows.. Even though I'm terribly angry at him he gives me space and putting down his pride. His little ways means so much, a lot of patience giving me everyday. He proves that in spite of my negativity he is always been there for me. He fights for our relationship and never leaves me crying.. Simple holding hands while walking home is a big plus.

Even though i may be quiet as far as accepting his compliments, he compliments me everyday, tells me that he loves me, tells me im beautiful, he says it and i feel all warm inside to the point where i cant utter out a thank you but my smiles are an expression of thanks.
