Gift of self

Easter Sunday celebrates the gift of love and self.

I think the greatest gift a man can give a woman is the gift of self and understanding.

This is the latest scientific discovery: men are turned off by a nagging partner. SMy mate Benny described being constantly nagged by a woman as like being nibbled to death by a duck.

In the same vein, a negative woman is a real pain. Not only is negativism hard to live with day after day, but it's a method of saying to the husband, "You're no good."

Many relationships suffer from an emotional impoverishment. The hardworking man may drive himself to be more successful, buy a bigger house, buy new things for his wife, and believe that the next new thing will bring her happiness, only to discover that happiness and love isn't with things, but with the person you love.

There is an old cliche that little things mean a lot to a woman.

Some of the most tender and romantic moments in a couple's lives can be when the man recognizes how fatigued his partner is at the end of the day and that night just hold her in his arms and say "I just want you to know I hear you and know you hurt, and I want to be tender with you."
