The other night we actualy talked,finally.I told him about when I started 2 fall in love w/him.He told me that he cared & had some feelings 4 me, but he never said he loved or fell in love w/me.When I tell him "I Love You" he'll say it back. But after what he said the other night, I feel like they R just words. He was engaged 2 someone B4 we meant, he also told me he didnt love her.He says he didnt know how love felt until our daughter was born. So does he Love me, or not? I'm so confused!

Probably your husband is right when he told you that he did not know what love means until you both had a baby girl. I think he had some mixed feeling and having the baby will clear it up for him. You need to deal with this confusion with more patient, love, and content. It might be hard to do but I would suggest you to leave the past behind, live in the present and plan for your future. Show him what love means to you and share some responsibilities together like taking care of the baby, this might bring intimacy into your relationship. Suppose he loves you and go from there.

bughouse, are you giving him a reason to be in-love with you? Do you avoid lovebusters and meet his emotional needs? What you want is ROMANTIC LOVE and if you follow this program and implement MB concepts you can have that. The 2 books I would recommend would be Fall in Love, Stay in Love and His Needs, Her Needs. If you learn to meet his needs, he will know he is in love you and you will know it. Check out these articles: How do you know if your spouse is "in love" with you? Romantic Love: Is it a Realistic Goal for Marriage Therapy?
