This is what I need...put into word form

First, make time for her.  You are probably used to having time for yourself but now you must make time for her.  I mean this in the sense of comfortable routines you share together like a morning cup of coffee. I also mean it in the sense of sacrifice. Put down the book.  Look at her.  Listen to her.  You will need to do this more often than you can imagine.

Second, find mentors.  Choose from among us men who will challenge you, encourage you, and admonish you.  Do not share your frustrations with your friends.  Chose rather one or two men who will keep your confidence and carry your burdens, and reminding you of your obligations.  You will need this.  We all do.

And finally, honor her.  Your affection for her should be known in all the world.  Delight in her, praise her and thank her.  Never belittle her or make fun of her.  The safest place she can be should be by your side. If you cherish her and sanctify her like this, she will not only love you more, she will trust you more.

No Words

"I read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand and the Eskimos has a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep and there are no words for that."
