At first glance for most men affection may seem like an unnecessary appendage but deprive a woman of this and you can ruin your own marriage. Most men may ask what is it even after reading the AI break down. Yet its not that complicated.

All the thought and investment that was put in acquiring the lady, from the sleek lines, the gestures, outings, or even gifts that the man would do to win the woman. Those things are required in the marriage, now more than ever.

Affection is telling her you miss her when she steps out of the room.

Affection is bringing her a gift even if its not her birthday. Something as little as a favourite candy bar.

Affection is to let her catch you checking her out.

It becomes the responsibility of the husband to study the things that brighten up the day of their spouse and then deliver them. They have to study their wives because for some women flowers don’t mean much but a love note thanking them for taking care of the family could mean the world to them. So it takes a total mind shift to dedicate yourself as a husband to be fully invested in supplying affection.

Remember that it isn’t about the husband but about this specific need of their wife. After all the amount of affection the husband shared during the dating period, should set the tone for the rest of the marriage life.

So your challenge has been dropped husbands #husbanduties

Do two things affectionate for your wife right now. The first one should be simple. Something you can do even by contacting her right now, like singing to her, buying a treat, running the tub for her to lounge in. Then plan something nice, something that requires a bit more effort like taking her out, buying her something shining or get some rubbing oils and give her a long massage.

I didn’t say it would be easy, but she needs it.
