Does Your Wife Think Your Marriage Has Lost its Spark? Here’s How to Respond

Women constantly question whether they are loved and loveable.

While a guy rarely questions whether his wife loves him, most women never get that sense of certainty. My husband, Jeff, and I found in our research with women that 80% of women—even confident women in great relationships—have a subconscious daily question about whether they are loved and loveable. So guys, you can put a ring on her finger and vow to love and cherish her forever, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to feel loved and cherished as long as you both shall live unless you do things every day to show her that you would choose her all over again.

I have a friend who says being with her husband is a bit like being a lonely radio receiving tower. She’s sure, mentally, that her husband loves her, but if he doesn’t broadcast that message on a frequency she can receive, well…she’ll never receive it. So she simply doesn’t feel loved. It sounds like that’s true of Phil’s wife, and it might be true of yours.
