Do you ever read my posts?
Exactly.

And if women don't get an emotional connection they are very likely to be unhappy. I have an emotional connection to my friends, but it is not the same as the deep emotional attachment I have for my fiance. I do need to know how much I mean to him, I do need to talk about our relationship and our love to feel fullfilled within our relationship.

You may well be bringing it up quite a lot because you feel starved for it and are desperately missing it.

I wonder of most of the men here would be happy and content for a wife to do the same with sex, - "I just don't need it often to feel content, I prefer to be by myself" and so on. This is not meeting each others need for intimacy.

He needs to find a way to communicate with you and let you know how much you mean to him or I think your relationship will be in trouble.
