Making your better halves happy
I'm sorry if this is a rather personal question, but I need some advice, as my lassie is going through a tough time right now.
What do you guys do, to cheer your women up?

If it's something like depression, there are times when there are no words that can express the comfort you want to give to that person and the best thing to do is to say nothing and simply be there next to them. That's really the best one can do in that sort of situation.

Just be there for her.
If you two have children together, pamper her by doing the housework she usually does. Start giving her time to herself on her hobby. My wife can sit for hours reading a book while I tend to the kids. |

Hi KP
Speaking as someone who spends half his life overseas away from his family... Phone calls at unexpected times are the answer... Example... Your in the USA and she's in the UK, call her at 9am UK time. She's all... "Isn't it the middle of the night where you are?" Your all... "Couldn't sleep, thinking of you babe" Just set your alarm clock, make the call then go back to sleep. Tried and Tested! Just adjust for whichever way round the 2 of you are with timezones.
