We live apart because i have to take care of our business and kids studying overseas

Answer 1

Don't see the problem with the e mail. It's such a fast and cold way of sending a message, I'd approach him and ask him to add something like dear or honey. Just tell him it makes you feel better. Living apart doesn't help either but only the two of you know if the marriage is coming to an end. The e mail has nothing to do with it. .

Answer 2

Well, he's obviously not embarassed by introductions of sweet little nothings.
Maybe he consider that you are too old for this; So, it's up to you to show him that you like it.
How about writing a nice letter to him?
And if he still doesn't take the hint, how about telling him directly?
Now, you may also consider asking him if you two are alright or if there's anything he wished to talk to you about.
Only, before you do that, make sure you mean it.
Good luck.xxx

Answer 3

well sometimes , when u get very close 2 someone , u dont have to do certain things, like good morning or hi, or shake hands or like that , cos deep in ur heart u already made all of that just by eye contact or just by talking.
like for me , i sometimes stay away from home for 2 weeks and for example i dont see my sisters that long , when they call i would answer them as if i just saw them a second ago, same with friends, never tried with my partner ( still engaged lol ) but to be honest i would say the heading and closure.
tell him if it really bothers u , tell him dont think him telling u what to do , but u didnt say hi darling or yours , ask him is his love less now for u ,
good luck.

I wouldn't find it odd at all...email isn't like the old style handwritten letter. Rarely do I begin any email with a greeting to someone I'm familiar with (friend or family)...and the closings vary, but rarely do I use a formal closing or sign my name. Email etiquitte is different from old style letter writing, but if you fear there's an issue in your relationship then pick up the phone and speak to your husband.

Why worry about an issue when communicating could clear the air?

It's odd though that your avatar is male, with a male name, but you appear to be a woman...

Answer 5

I think after 20 years of being married you need to e-mail him back and tell him how you feel.20 years of being married he needs to think about how you feel and whats going through your mind.When you e-mail him back don't start with dear or honey show him how it feels not hearing it from you.20 years is a long time to be married and needs to be niped at the bud.Some man think after being married that long they don't need to say that to a women they think they don't have to say stuff like that.Man and women need to say stuff like that to make them feel good that they are still needed.Little words that mean so much to a person!

Answer 6

If you are living in separate cities it seems that you are already separated .If you want this marriage to work you are going to have to work at spending real time together instead of drifting apart. You cannot keep a marriage going indefinitely just with emails. Pay him a visit and make it a special time for you both.

Answer 7

It depends on a lot of things. It would seem as though it could be a sign of a problem brewing. If you live in seperate cities it seems natural that things might fall out. Did he greet you differently before? There just isn't enough information here to answer you're question. I wish you best.

Answer 8

Y do you live apart? Maybe after 20 years he doesnt feel it necessary to say those things, he assumes you know who the email is to and who its from.

Answer 9

he could possibly be doing this because alot of people don't look at emails as you do - he may email constantly at work and out of habit just keep it almost business like - us women have a habit of wanting our men to feel the way we do and that could be further from the truth. your husband may show how he feels towards you in his own way, just because you use email as a love tool, does not mean he is - you may need to appreciate the way he shows his feelings towards you the way he does it and not expect him to do it the same way you feel it should be done - good luck.

Answer 10

I never put a saultation to any emails to people I know even my "s/o" I don't believe in using effusive nicknames for people I care about, I resepct them enough to use their given names when referring to them.
