You’re Woman Needs to Hear How Much She Means to You…

If there’s one thing women and men have in common, it’s the want and need to hear how much we mean to each other. Women want to hear how beautiful they are, how much we are appreciated, and that our men feel lucky to have us. Men want to know that we feel protected and safe and that they are doing a good job of pleasing us and taking care of their families.

Women have a tendency to express these feelings better than our male counterparts. We have no qualms about expressing our feelings and making them known. Men, on the other hand, very rarely have the ability to show their weaknesses.

Take Corey for instance. He can be a very un-emotional person. He hates to show any weakness and he very rarely, if ever, can be gushy and romantic. He prefers humor over being the idealistic romanticizer who grabs his woman in a fit of passion and whispers in her ear everything she wants to hear while she melts in his seductive manliness. This is one of the things I love most about him being the avid comedic fan I am. However, I still need to hear, sincerely, that I am one of the most important things in his life…

Corey is not a drinker. I turned him onto wine a while back, but he doesn't indulge as I do. This morning I awoke to a very happy Corey who had downed nearly a whole bottle by himself (he works third shift mind you)! He’s quite a funny guy and an even more humorous drunk :)

But the alcohol helped him open up a bit more to me. For this I am thankful. He told me how beautiful I am. He told me what a lucky man he is. He told me things I had not heard in quite a while, not without him trying to crack a joke anyway. Thank you Gnarly Head Cabernet…

Seriously though, we all need to hear how much we are needed and we should tell each other how much we love each other often. While it shouldn’t require a few glasses of wine to do this, if it helps you to express those feelings you may otherwise keep bottled up, drink up my friends!

Tell your woman how you really feel once in a while (even if it takes a glass of wine or two). Trust me, you’re not going to turn into Fabio, but you will keep her happy and feeling loved, sometimes at the very time it is needed.
