I have to concur with Undecided for me it was the feelings not what was done. Unfortunately by the time I figured out what she wanted she was no longer had the feelings. I havn't given up hope but she has.
The things I wanted to feel:
I was the most important man in her life.
The love in her eyes when she saw me.
When I failed to accomplish something I wanted to feel that it was okay that I tried my best. etc etc etc
I didn't need to hear I love you, I needed to feel loved. I didn't need to hear I desire you. I needed to feel desired. etc etc.
Men claim not to be as emotional as women but we just express it differently, the emotion is still there and to some extent we need the approval of our significant other. I got more from my ex subcontiously reaching over to hold my hand while we watched tv than a day filled with I love you's.
Or maybe I am just girly man. Who really knows for sure.
