There are quirky little things we all love about our mates. For me it’s the size and shape of my husband’s hands and the feel of the wiry copper hairs on his forearms. Sometimes, even if I’m upset, if I think about those things my heart softens and I feel very loving toward him. I think your hand hair may be one of your wife’s happy triggers.
If my husband really loved long hair or my signature perfume, I wouldn't change them despite the fact that my body is *mine* and I have the right to do with it as I please. I don’t think it would be loving or considerate.
Successful relationships require that we find ease within the confines of mutually defined boundaries. When my husband treats me with consideration and respects my limits, I feel loved and often times my heart opens to accept whatever new step he feels the need to take.
