- you tell him verbally or in writing that you value his work efforts.
- you express your faith in him related to his chosen field.
- you listen to his work stories as closely as you expect him to listen to your accounts of what happens in the family
- you see yourself as his helpmate and counterpart and talk with him about this whenever possible.
- you allow him to dream as you did when you were courting.
- you don't dishonor or subtly criticize his work "in the field" to get him to show me more love "in the family."
-Page 203 of "Love & Respect" by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs
