One of ChatGPT’s suggestions for making a heterosexual woman a better wife, was How to show appreciation and affection to your husband. I’d change that to YOUR husband, because there is no one size fits all list here.

My Lori shows appreciation and affection to me in many ways, but some mean more to me than others. If she shows me appreciation where I have not received that from others in the past, that’s a big deal. If doing something was particularly difficult for me, be that physically or mentally, her appreciation for that is extra nice. I also feel loved when she shows appreciation for the little things I do day in and day out – thanking me for every cup of coffee I make for her, for example.

Affection is the same way. Showing me affection after a long hard day or a failure is especially appreciated. Likewise, when she’s had a rough day, and she still shows affection. And because I’m a physical touch guy, showing her affection with hugs and other touch is especially good.

When I’m sore from working hard on something for her, a back rub and a thank-you checks all the boxes!

~ Paul – I’m XY, and it’s good to be affectionately appreciated!
