I fixed my hubby a book of "love coupons"that included this letter. "This is just a little fun gift i thought i would make you since I have nothing else to give. I just wanted to let you know how much I love you and appreciate all that you do for me. I wish i could shower you in gifts but i cant, so my gift to you is love, appreciation, understanding, caring, trust, and loyalty. I am thankful for everything you have done for me in our first wonderful year of marriage. I know that as much as you nurture and care for me you will do the same for our first born child when he/she arrives. I will apologize today even though there is no need, for any aggravation or hurt I may have caused, i realize i am hard to deal with sometimes. Dont ever forget that if you ever need to hear that someone loves you, I am right here. I love you." Kinda corny I know but I have never seen my hubby show emotion and when i gave him that he CRIED...literally sobbing that he loves me too.Why did he cry like that

Im just shocked because I never expected him to react like that. And i didnt really think my note sounded all that great even though it came from the heart. By the way im 14 weeks pregnant with our first child (reference to the baby in the note.)

That is such a wonderful thing you wrote! I agree with many of the people above me, who are offering some very good ideas about why your husband cried (except for the idiots who think he's cheating). To them I would only add that the news of you being pregnant is surely a huge stress on your husband. You've only been married a year, too, so I'm sure there are many other new things he's adapting to in his new life with you. People who are stressed can sometimes react more emotionally than people who are not. (Note: I'm not meaning stress as a bad thing, but in its more general sense as in having lots of things going on.)

Actually, there could be multiple reasons he cried. For one, your note IS special...even though you didn't think so. For someone to love you enough to bare their feelings and tell you so is always special. Two, perhaps he's been feeling not-so-appreciated, and this was just what he needed. Then, there's also the possibility that he feels guilty a little about not making YOU feel appreciated lately...and this was just an outpouring of emotion about that. Finally, it IS possible that he's done somthing or considered doing something that he regrets...but not necessarily, and I tend to believe the best of people, not the worst....so let's go with the assumption that it hit the right place for him and that he's never had anyone just say it like that before. I'd welcome any day that the person I've decided to spend my life with would take the time you did to write such a sweet note. Good for you.

I would be scared of him if he shows no emotions. Thats not normal. Crying is not a bad emotion either if its done once in a while. Crying all the time is not good either. Express or confront to him about this subject and see what he says. He's either got some emotional problems or he's afraid to express them in front of u. Ask and see what he says/

I think you know why he cried. Your letter wasn't corny it was sweet and it came from the heart. He must have felt that and that's why he cried. Plus, you're pregnant and if he's happy about the baby or scared about the kind of father he'll be you just reassured him that everything will be okay and you'll always be there for him. I think anyone with a heart would cry from getting a letter like that.

For some men it is very hard to put emotions into words or emotions. When they're heart is touched very deeply like you did to your husband in the manner that you did without holding anything back, he had NO recourse but to cry. A man that will react in this manner is a very , very good hearted man, and emotions run very deep for them. So really love , and suuport him in as many ways as you can with love , respect, and loyalty as you have already stated. Good for you for reliazing you love him this much. nikkinihu

My husband was never the emotional type at all. I was the first woman that he ever said I love you to. Once we had our little girl it all changed. I think the idea of just having the baby on the way is making him really look at his life. That's what my husband told me. Talk to your husband, it sounds like he really loves you. By the way congratulations and good luck!

It was sweet, it may have been what he needed right at that moment. Are you afraid he felt guilty about something. I think if that were the case he would've showed no emotion. Be happy that you made your husband feel loved and special. Good for you.

What you did was very touching. Words of affirmation might be something he has wanted from you for some time. Perhaps he has been silently dying to hear a message like that from you. My advice? Do it more! Enjoy! :D

I'd shed a few tears too.
Just because a guy seems tough, doesn't mean a very touching message can't break through his mask. He loves you and is grateful to have you.

Maybe he was wondering if you did still love him. If you have been a pill lately, he may not have been sure of himself. My man crys over things like that too. I find it very sweet. I like it that he is sensitve. Yours will probably make a terrific dad...good luck to you.
