Small Acts Of Affection Add Up


Dr. Laura:

You saved my marriage.  Several years ago, all I could think about was that I needed to divorce my husband.  I focused only on the negatives and lost sight of why I married him in the first place.  However, I kept listening to your show, and eventually, your wise words of wisdom got through my thick skull.
 
I started by showing little acts of affection.  He has never been a "lovey, touchy-feely" kind of guy, but the simple act of my touching his shoulder or giving him a quick hug worked miracles.  Three years later, my husband now touches me FIRST!  Out of the blue, he will lean over and give me a kiss.  He'll hug me for no reason.  I'm getting those acts of affection back because I started showing them years ago.

I am so glad we did not divorce.  In fact, our marriage is better than ever, and we are true partners.  

Harriet
