It should be, but they are insecure.

No it is not enough words are nothing we want facts
we are more sensitive than the men and this is why we need affection in everything that we do we put more passion and it is very important for us to see that we have the appreciation from the others.
women today are independent person and they do what they feel not what the society tells them to do - this was in middle ages
go there and be more affective with her

DUDE U SUCK!!! HOW DARE U EVEN ASK SUCH A QUESTION YOU SHOULD FEEL HONORED SHE WANTS U AROUND BECASUE CLEARLY WITH THAT QUESTION I KNOW ALOT OF TRUE LADIES THAT WOULD CURB CHECK U RIGHT HERE AND NOW.iF U DONT WANT TO BE AFFECTIONATE THEN GO FIND A DOG WHO ONLY WANTS TO BE FRIEND AND LET UR WIFE BE WITH SOMEONE WHO LOVES HER 100% BECAUSE CLEARLY U DONT.

I don’t think it has anything to do with society’s brainwashing. Most women appreciate physical affection, it makes them feel cared for and loved. Yes, we like to be told that we are loved, but would it hurt to give your wife a hug, a caress, a kiss from time to time? It would probably mean a lot to her. I don’t even like too much physical affection, I think it’s annoying. Women not only like to be told they are loved, they want their men to express it too.

Poetic,
She is your wief, not a friend. In a marital relation, love is expressed in so many ways. Telling is one, caring for is one, giving physical affection and pleasure is one. It is essential for both the partners. Now since you dont give physical affection and your wife wants it, yu have asked a question why women want it so always. What if things were the other way? That you wanted to have fun with her and if she talked about Godly love and all such, how would you have felt? It is your responsibility as a husband to take care of her needs. If you are not able, then find why it is so and see whether you could change. Or else if you dont mind her getting the affcetion from some other man, allow her to do it. Not meeting such conjugal rights of a marital partner is a crime unless you have decided to separate. Or you may end the relation and give her all the suppoort she needs to live. Think which is the easiest.

Poor woman. It has nothing to do with society. Women have a deep need for that kind of affection, and I for one love providing it. It’s lovely. It’s what makes them different.

Of course just standing there and barking ‘I love you’ isn’t enough. How do you have sex? Stand there with your hands behind your back and yell “Thrust - thrust - thrust - aaaaaaaa -ejaculate!”?

Send her to me, and I’ll do it for you if it’s too hard.

Oh dear, you will get bagged for this one.

Society does not dictate how one should love or not love a person, it is the person themselves that should be doing the dictating.

She could always get you hypnotised and have a key word that sets you off in the affection department lol.

It can’t be enough only telling her you love her. Haven’t you heard of ‘actions are louder than words’ before? It is just natural that most women want affection simply because she loves her man. You should be happy she needs you in that area. Marrying someone means to make your spouse happy your duty. Why is it being affectionate be a problem to you when you say you love her?

Actions speak louder than words.
Just because you say you love her, that doesn’t necessarily prove to her you do.

Why is it so difficult to hug or kiss her? If you love her, desire her, and are attracted to her, one would think you’d want to hug or kiss or caress her.

I love my husband, and I personally am affectionate by nature. Hubby is not so much, but he will hug me, or kiss me, just because he loves me … and because he knows I like it. I appreciate him for that.

Best Wishes

Women are patterned to recieve affection and Men are patterned to recieve admiration it is inborn wired in them.

When both recieve mutually what they want then there is no clash.

actions speak louder than words. and it’s not just women…just yesterday my bf said “kiss me!!” the trick is to pair up with someone that matches your style best….and if you were affectionate before you got married or if you have less affection for your wife now, that’s probably the real problem.

you are seriously stupid if you think that society brain washes women into wanting hugs and kisses, gee how cold are you not to want to be affectionate with your wife, why bothe rhaving a wife in the first place,,,,, the poor woman, her heart must ache for affection and I can only imagine the way in how you tell her you love her, do u just throw the words at her like as if its a chore…. my husband loves being a ffecionate and we tell each othe revery day we love each other….it only makes the heart grow fonder and the love stay alive…I wonder how your wife still loves you!…grow a heart will you i wonder if your wife still loves you some what and whether its like trying to get blood from a stone!!!!!!!!!!

A little bit of sensitivity training might help you out, pal.

maybe she should tell you she washed your clothes or cooked you dinner…. you go to get some food or a clean pair of pants, no food there, no clean clothes there…

she is not fond of slaving over a hot stove or having to constantly doing laundry, but she does this because she wants to please YOU. her actions prove this. if you want something you have to give something too.
