The Importance of Touch

October 20, 2015 By Jessica Leave a Comment

I get it, life is busy. We’re constantly rushing about trying to get and keep all our fires going. In all that rushing though we simply forget that we need to touch and be touched by other people, and it’s not something that takes a ton of time or effort. We simply need to just reach out and touch our husband’s.

Maybe it’s as simple a peck on the cheek good-bye or hello. Maybe it’s putting your hand on their arm when you’re speaking to them. Maybe it’s grabbing them and pulling them into the laundry room with you for a kiss. Maybe it’s something more, maybe it’s something less. But it needs to be something.

Our husbands need to know that we want them, that we enjoy them, that we find them irresistible and can’t keep our hands {and lips} off of them! I want you to make it a priority this week to touch your husband, even if it’s just putting your hand on his shoulder if he’s sitting down. Do something to physically touch your husband.

Also, I want you to think about when your husband touches you: How do you respond? Do you reciprocate? Think about this. Think about your reactions. Do you not respond to it? Brush it off? Act annoyed? Work on making your responses to his touch more positive. Touch goes both ways and just as much as you need to touch your husband, you need to actually respond {and respond positively} to his touch.

*Here’s the disclaimer I have to say: In no way do I support or suggest that you should accept or give touches that are unwelcome or abusive.
