When Your Spouse Rejects Your Love

Many years ago, I read the book entitled “The Five Love Languages” by Gary Chapman. It truly opened my eyes to see an issue that I personally faced in my own marriage. I remember early on when my husband proudly gifted me a triple warming dish. I was thrown off by his gift and did not understand why he would give me something so unnecessary. I thanked him but he could see in my face that I was a little less than impressed. He later told me that he had bought it for me because I loved to throw parties. It was true that I occasionally liked doing themed events with friends, but a buffet was never on my list of must haves. Had I realized then that in his culture, the gift would have been greatly appreciated and extremely useful in how they entertain, I could have spared some hurt feelings. He has never forgotten how he felt watching his spouse reject a form of his love.

My husband has at least three major love languages, one of which is receiving gifts. According to the book, we tend to give love to others the way that we need to feel love. He gave me a gift with his entire heart, and I did not receive it as well as he had hoped, and it hurt him. Even now, years later, he still feels the sting of that event.

The same thing has happened to me. My major love language is words of affirmation so when I choose to give a gift, it is accompanied by tender words of gratitude and admiration. I learned early that those things are not as meaningful to him. We seemed to volley hurt feelings back and forth between one another during the first few years of marriage. If we feel that our love is being rejected, our first impulse is to get defensive and angry, neither of those things will heal the offended heart, however.

I have learned that when we feel that our love is rejected, it is typically because our spouse feels misunderstood or hurt. Communication is an important tool for any marriage. When you and your spouse can talk your way through problems and clear up misunderstandings, the clouds of tension and resentment dissipate. No amount of effort is wasted that goes toward creating unity and understanding. At times we may feel rejected not because a spouse is angry but because circumstances are challenging at the moment. Try to be patient and to see things from another perspective.

Elder James E. Faust taught about the importance of communicating in our marriages. He said, “Marriage relationships can be enriched by better communication. One important way is to pray together. This will resolve many of the differences, if there are any, between the couple before sleep comes. I do not mean to overemphasize differences, but they are real, and make things interesting. Our differences are the little pinches of salt which can make the marriage seem sweeter. We communicate in a thousand ways, such as a smile, a brush of the hair, a gentle touch, and remembering each day to say, “I love you” and the

husband to say, “You’re beautiful.” Some other important words to say, when appropriate, are “I’m sorry.” Listening is excellent communication.” 1

As imperfect mortals, we live in a fallen world which our enemy has claimed. He knows the importance of family relationships and incites and encourages us to get angry or offended. Remember that we have power to overcome all things, including the enemy himself. May we continually make our homes a haven of love, patience, and peace.

  • my name is Hellen Johnson i,m from washington losing my job was a devastating blow, and just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse, I found myself grappling with an even more distressing situation. A week after being laid off, I fell victim to a ruthless cyber attack that wiped out my Bitcoin account, draining it of its £53,000 worth of digital currency. The feeling of betrayal and devastation was overwhelming, as I struggled to come to terms with the magnitude of the loss. The hackers had managed to gain access to my Bitcoin account credentials, leaving me feeling utterly vulnerable and exposed. It was a violation of not just my financial security, but also my sense of trust and privacy. The realization that my hard-earned savings had been plundered by faceless criminals left me reeling with shock and disbelief. In my darkest hour, a friend reached out with a glimmer of hope. They referred me to SMOOTH RECOVERY , a renowned asset recovery team specializing in combating cybercrime. With little left to lose, I reached out to them, sharing all the necessary information about the incident in the hopes of finding some semblance of justice amidst the chaos. To my amazement, the team at SMOOTH RECOVERY sprang into action with unwavering determination. Utilizing their advanced technology and expertise, they embarked on a relentless pursuit to track down the hackers and recover my stolen bitcoins. It was a race against time, but their commitment to helping victims like myself never wavered. Days turned into weeks as the investigation unfolded, each moment filled with uncertainty and anxiety. But finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news I had been desperately hoping for – SMOOTH RECOVERY had successfully traced the hackers and recovered my stolen bitcoins. The sense of relief and gratitude that washed over me was indescribable, as I realized that justice had finally been served. However, the assistance provided by smooth recovery didn’t end there. In addition to recovering my lost funds, they also helped me secure my digital access reliably, providing invaluable guidance and support to prevent future cyber attacks. Their dedication to their client’s safety and well-being is truly commendable, and I am forever grateful for their unwavering commitment to helping individuals like myself navigate the complexities of cybercrime. In the aftermath of this harrowing experience, I am filled with a newfound sense of resilience and determination. While the scars of the past may never fully heal, I take solace in knowing that I have the support of organizations like SMOOTH RECOVERY to help me rebuild and reclaim my financial freedom.

  • If you’re not familiar with cryptocurrency trading, I strongly advise you to either stay away from it completely or invest very cautiously. I was forced to invest a significant amount of my life savings on a forex platform to increase my profits, but I ultimately lost roughly 95,000 USD to this investment scam. I was not allowed to take my money out after I had invested and made a profit. I sent a letter to customer service, but it was ineffective, so I realized I had been duped. I was fortunate enough to come across a genuine deal retrieval WEB WIZARD after much looking for ways to acquire assistance. I decided to give it a shot and explained my condition to them. they gave me their word that they would help me get my money back. Honestly, they performed a fantastic job, and my money was recovered in my wallet in less than 24 hours without any upfront payment. I appreciate having encountered WEB WIZARD with such exceptional abilities, it’s truly remarkable.
