My husband didn't have to see this to do what you suggested.
My husband goes above and beyond for me. While I was recently ill, my husband didn't care if he had to rummage through the clean laundry to find a pair of socks or undershirt. He did not prepare gourmet meals, but what he managed to get onto the table was just satisfactory with me and our girls. The love and attention he shows me on a daily basis is exemplary. He's not always the romantic nature, but I do know he loves me dearly. I love him for his aidelkeit from the first time we had met. Just keep it up.

If you are appreciative it normally works..
Thanks for this timely reminder Lori! If you are appreciative it normally works. My wife would also say a bit of money spent on new clothes to show your appeciativeness also can't hurt!
