I receive all sorts of reminders via my computer weekly. This morning it was a u tube recording of Willy Nelson singing "You're always on my mind". I acknowledge them in a very low key way, as is his preference also. Whereas Women can ALWAYS get emotional, I almost feel its getting harder for him to express himself emotionally, as he ages. How about your significant other? I used to get really frustrated over this but now I rather enjoy his way.

Now you have me curious .... is your low key acknowledgement via email as well?
Perhaps another song back to him in reply?

Hey ... he does express his love to you IRL ... every time he brings you that glass of wine!
