A woman works more off of her emotions. You can give her everything but we need to feel that you love us. It does not require much sometimes It can be as simple as a touch when you are watching television, a smile when your eyes meet. Why not arrange to do something that she like for a weekend. Why not take her out on dates like you used to. Or if she is a stay at home mom why not arrange for someone to watch the kids for one day so she can pamper herself. My friends husband arranged a treasure hunt for her while he was at work he hid clues all through the house and when she got to the "treasure" it was a card thanking her for loving him and for being his wife and a picture of them when they were first dating. She keeps the card and picture in her top drawer. She says when she is tempted to kill him she takes the card out to calm her down. It doesn't have to cost much money to make a woman feel loved.

Evidently you're not giving her everything as you say...These things could all be materialistic or physical by now. As we grow older ...things just sorta fall into a pattern. Think of when you first
married her......was hard work and paying the bills on your agenda then ? Try going back there for a little bit....you may be
surprised at what you might find.....good luck.

It means you are screwed. It means you have been a good man and husband and take care of her physical needs.. It means that its not enough and she's looking for that lustful moist feeling in her pants. This is the precursor for her to start thinking about cheating. The "emotional love" phrase is the bull crap code for I want hot sex with someone else.
Sorry for your plight. We've all been there.
Variations are " I love you but I'm not in love with you."
" You've been a good guy its just me."
" There has to be more than this somehow."
" I just don't feel for you the way I used to."
" I don't feel connected."
" we don't have anything in common any more."
Sometimes women just do not recognize when they are well off.

Well the person you should be asking is her.
But what she could mean is that maybe you don't do the little things that make her feel emotionally close to you, holding her hand, little kisses, go for walks, talk to her, hold her, stop the rest of the world and make time for her. Romantic things tell her how much you car, if you can't live with out her let her know, if your day is better because you see her or talk to her tell her these things. Try doing the little things and see if it helps, or like i said simply ask her...

she doen't feel connected to you...You are a good husband as far as taking care of the things your family needs, but ur not taking caare of your wife. Show her how much she means to you, do little things for her that she wouldn't expect, and leave her notes or something else to remind her during the day that you are always thinking of her...also talk to her more

Romance! Romance! Romance! Do you tell her you love her? Do you buy her flowers... cards? Do you show her the little ways you care by being considerate? Do you anticipate her emotional needs? Do you listen to her, I mean really listen to her when she talks? Just listen, you don't have to solve her problems for her. Women just need to know that you listen. Do you try to make her smile and laugh? Touch her heart.

she means little things like hlolding and hugging just cause- not leading up to sex- or holdng hands,snuggling- letting her know you love her and not just saying it- showing it in the little things you do. Put it like this- know how you acted when you first started dating and had a crush? How ya'll would sit on the phone and say nothing but still wouldn't hang up? How ya'll just look at each other and smile? Stuff like that. She needs to know you still have those fresh feelings for her, and show them from your heart and not your wallet or your penis.

It means she wants you to talk to her and tell her about how you feel about her. She wants to hear words of love as well as expressions of love (take good care of her, good sex, etc.)

You just answered your own question. Sounds as if you are forgetting to put the "provider" skills aside, and remember, before she is your wife, she is a woman. She wants talked too, paid attention too. Dated again. Things important to her need to be important to you as well. Find her interests, and treat her as she is all on earth! Check out the book.."relationship rescue" by Dr. Phil Mcgraw. Good Luck!
