So You Think There Isn't Enough Visible LOVE In Your Relationship. You
See Couples So Openly Affectionate With Each Other-So Clearly Gaga
About One Another- And Your Relationship Suddenly Looks COLD And
Almost Platonic. It's Possible, In Spite Of Yourself, That You Made It
That Way. Here Are Behaviours That Could Be Scaring Your Guy Away From
Being Affectionate•
1• YOU RECOIL FROM PDA:
For Fear Of Being The Annoying Couple "All OvER Each Other" In Public,
Anytime Your Guy Tries To Put His Arms Around You At A Bar, You Slip
Out. When He Goes In For A KISS At The Grocery Store Check Out Line,
You Give Him The Cheek. Stop Worrying About What Everyone Else Is
Thinking! You Just Rejected Your Guy For The Approval Of People You'll
Never See Again•
2• YOU DEFLECT COMPLIMENTS:
You're So Terrified Of Seeming Cocky Or Vain That You Dodge Every
Compliment Like It's A Dagger. When Your Guy Pays You One, You Pay Him
Back With Ten Reasons Why It's Not True, Or A List Of Things That Are
Wrong With You. I Promise: He Won't Think, "How Conceited" If You
Simply Say' "THANK YOU"
3• YOU DON'T TELL HIM ABOUT STRESS:
He Finds Out From Your Mum, Your Friend, Your Co-Worker Or Anyone But
You That Something Pretty Monumental And Difficult Happened To You.
You Don't Tell Him These Things Because You Don't Want To Burden Him
Or Be A Girlfriend Who Complains Too Much• But He Just Reads Your
Secrecy As You Not Wanting Him Buting His Nose Into Your Business.
When Deep Down, You Want Him To Care So Much•
4• YOU DON'T TELL HIM WHEN YOU'RE HURT:
If He Says Something That Hurts You, And You Know It's Not
Intentional, You Lecture Yourself IN Your Own Head, "He Didn't Mean It
That Way. You're Just Being A Baby. Don't Burden Him With Your
"Feelings" About This." But He Knows When You Keep Quiet, Or Turn Over
In Bed, Or Go For A Walk When You'rE Obviously Hurting, He Reads This
As You Just Being A Very Private Person And/Or Don't Believe He Has
The Tools To Help You Feel Better•
5• IT'S NEVER A GOOD TIME:
Guess What: Affection Isn't Meant To Be Scheduled! So What If You Were
In The Middle Of A Spreadsheet When He Came Up Behind You To Hug You?
You Can Close The Laptop For Five Minutes To Enagage In Some
Sweetness. If You Always Brush Him Off And Make Him Feel Like A
Nuisance For Giving You Affection, He'll STOP•
6• YOU NEVER INITIATE AFFECTION:
You Want To Reach Out And Touch Him, But You're Frozen By The Terror
Of Being Too Clingy, Too Needy, Too Touchy Etc. You Hate The Thought
That Maybe He Didn,t 110% Want Affection In That Moment. And God
Forbid That Be The Case. You'd Rather Play It Safe And Keep Your Hands
To Yourself And Let Him Initiate Affection. But He Reads Your Failure
To Initiate As You Just Not Liking Affection: Plain And Simple•
7• YOU DON'T CUDDLE AFTER SEX:
You've Heard The Horror Stories From Your Male Friends Of Them Being
Trapped In Post-Sex Cuddling They So Don't Want To Be In- They Tell
You Of Times They Wanted To Crawl Out Of Their Skin As A Woman Played
With Their Chest Hair And Nuzzled Their Neck And For Some Reason, Even
Though You're In A Committed Relationship, You Wonder If Your Guy
Feels That Way. And At The Off Chance He Ever Might, You Always Hop
Out Of Bed Immediately After SEX•
