Just after we’d started dating seriously, Pat and I went to a Superbowl party at my friend’s house. We sat at her dining room table munching on your typical array of Superbowl foods while Pat got acquainted with all my high school cronies. I didn’t think this night was particularly memorable, but a few months later, when we announced our engagement, one of my best people said, “I knew it! I saw his hand on your leg that night at the Superbowl shindig, and I knew it!”
I’m not a touchy person. I never have been. Physical touch definitely was never even in the top four of my love languages (which is why my closest friends thought Pat’s hand on my thigh as a strong indicator our relationship was going well). One of Pat’s primary love languages is physical touch. So you’d better freaking believe that--since getting married--I’ve had to learn a new language. When physical touch is referred to in a dating or marriage context, our silly minds always go straight to the obvious: sexxxxxxxxx. But I’ve learned that it’s actually really truly so dang much more than that and that sometimes the simplest touch can make the biggest difference. Physical touch allows us to keep those “in-love” emotions and makes marriage (and life) much more enjoyable! I mean, when was the last time you... 1. Held your spouse’s hand while you sat and talked? (Try this while talking about bills or a stressful day...there’s something so calming about it!) 2. Kissed your spouse on the cheek/forehead/nose? 3. Put your forehead against your spouse’s?
4. Nibbled on your sweetie’s ear?
5. Gave your sweet spouse a back-scratch? 6. Put your arm around your spouse? 7. Gave your babe a neck or head rub? 8. Slipped your hand along the belt-line under his or her shirt while you kiss? 9. Held on long and tight to that embrace--turning it into a bear-hug? 10. Cuddled and talked about nothing? I’ll be honest--when Pat and I are emotionally distant (because life’s busy or we’re in a tiff or whatever), it carries over into all aspects of life… and I find that we’re physically distant, too. It’s in these moments that I know I need to link arms with him while we walk or snuggle him at night to signify that I want “things to be good” (as we say). Or if we’re not in a skirmish, such simple acts of physical touch can demonstrate my love for him and mean I want to be even closer. And isn’t staying close and getting closer to one’s spouse always the goal in marriage? So, if you find yourself farther from your spouse than you’d like to be, try scooting a little closer...both figuratively and literally. Try any of the above methods or go ahead and be creative. Oh, and feel free post below what your favorite little love touches include. Want to know something surprising? My little brother now accuses me fairly frequently of breaking our old PDA regulations! I know, I know, you’re going to say it’s because we’re a newly-wed (ish) couple and that if give it time so it’ll wear off. But you know what? Physical touch has morphed to be much more of a frequent and important expression of love for my honey, that I hope I never stop finding little ways to be near him physically to remind him how dearly I love him.

Another touch thing: Patting her as I walk by in the kitchen; Holding hands while we drive; Coming home from a busy winter night at work - not putting my cold hands on her - and she takes my cold hands in hers. It lets me know she cares about me.

My journey from victim to victor serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of perseverance. To those who find themselves ensnared in similar predicaments, I offer this beacon of hope: recovery is possible, even when the odds seem insurmountable.In closing, I extend my heartfelMy recent encounter with SWIFT SPY ASSETS RECOVERY marks a pivotal chapter in my life, one fraught with deception, hope, and ultimately, redemption. It began with what seemed like a promising investment opportunity but quickly unraveled into a sophisticated scam that left me reeling. It all started innocuously enough on the Telegram app, where I was lured into investing in what purported to be stocks of tech giants like Amazon and Apple. The scammers convinced me to download MetaTrader and Trust Wallet, tools that seemed legitimate for managing investments and cryptocurrency transactions. Little did I know, these were mere props in an elaborate scheme designed to defraud unsuspecting investors like myself. Eager to capitalize on what appeared to be a lucrative venture, I began funding the trading app with substantial wire transfers, eventually amounting to over 180,000USD. Each transaction seemed to reinforce the illusion that my investments were thriving in the booming tech market. However, the truth was far more sinister. It wasn’t until I attempted to withdraw my supposed profits that I realized something was amiss. Communication from the scammers became sparse, and when I did manage to contact them, their promises grew increasingly hollow. It dawned on me then: I had fallen victim to a meticulously orchestrated scam, and my hard-earned money was now in the hands of faceless criminals. In a desperate bid for justice, I turned to the NYPD, armed with evidence of my transactions and a trail of deceit. However, after a month of investigation, their verdict was disheartening: crypto assets, once transferred, were virtually untraceable. I was devastated by the realization that traditional law enforcement channels seemed ill-equipped to tackle crimes of this nature.Despite the bleak prognosis, a glimmer of hope flickered within me. I refused to accept defeat and resolved to explore alternative avenues for recovery. It was during this exhaustive search that I stumbled upon SWIFT SPY ASSETS RECOVERY, a name that would soon restore my faith in the fight against cybercrime. With little to lose and everything to gain, I entrusted Cyber Tech Wizard with my case. Swiftly, they sprang into action, meticulously tracing the convoluted path of my funds across the digital ether. Their expertise and determination were evident as they navigated through the complexities of blockchain transactions and cryptocurrency protocols.In a remarkable turnaround, just 72 hours later, SWIFT SPY ASSETS RECOVERY delivered the news I had begun to believe was impossible: my funds were successfully retrieved and restored to my bank account. The sense of relief and vindication was overwhelming, contrasting starkly with the despair I had felt mere days before. My journey from victim to victor serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of perseverance. To those who find themselves ensnared in similar predicaments, I offer this beacon of hope: recovery is possible, even when the odds seem insurmountable. In closing, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to SWIFT SPY ASSETS RECOVERY for their unwavering support and unwavering commitment to justice. They did not only restored my financial losses but also renewed my faith in the pursuit of justice in the digital age. To anyone navigating the aftermath of a scam, remember this: there are allies in the fight for restitution, and no setback is insurmountable with the right allies by your side. hire them to work for you if fallen vitim with the following information.

I was the subject of a cryptocurrency heist. My wallet containing $49,000 was broken into, and some bitcoin was taken and transferred to an unauthorized account. They notified my wallet management, but they had me wait a week to get back to me by email. Instead of helping, they suggested that my phone might have been compromised and advised me to contact the authorities, who were unable to give any aid in getting my bitcoin back. While searching the internet for a way to recover my stolen bitcoin, I came across EVIL HACKERS RECOVERY, a group of knowledgeable bitcoin recoveries. I made the decision to get in touch with them to ask for help recovering the money I had stolen. Because EVIL HACKERS RECOVERY helped me get the money back that had been taken, I have nothing but respect for them. EVIL HACKERS RECOVERY was able to ascertain the transaction’s execution with the usage of their advanced equipment. Thank you so much to EVIL HACKERS RECOVERY for your wonderful service. I have my money back. Should you have any questions about mine? Please send them a message through the following details: Email: recoveryevilhackers@ gmail.com or WhatsApp: +353899820359 .

My sincere gratitude goes to THE EXNER HACKER services. This guy came through for me big time. I didn’t anticipate, at all, ever getting my funds back. The Sky West investment company dissolved with all of my funds in it. It was a fraudulent company faking to help investors put their money in a productive state. May it be investment, forex, or cryptocurrency. Whatever form you would wish to invest your funds in. $490,000 of mine would have been long gone if The Exner Hacker hadn’t shed light and led the way into gaining back my funds. May you remain blessed sir. Email: TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom

I advise first-time bitcoin investors to do their research before entrusting any of these Bitcoin investment websites with their hard earned funds. They gain your trust by portraying fake huge profits to convince you to put more funds, till when you invest a substantial sum, they intentionally freeze your account and demand for more payments to have your profits released. I had invested with a bogus company that ripped me off $198000 worth of Crypto, this was close to everything I Had in my savings. special thanks to Century Hackers Recovery, whose recovery company put in a lot of effort and made sure I had my money back If you ever find yourself in a similar scenario, you can reach out to Century Web Recovery through; Email: [email protected]

My partner hid her affair too well and I had no evidence to prove her infidelity to the court so I had to go back to my friend who I'm grateful for referring me to the review about a private investigator who he worked with on (( HACKERONE975 AT GMA1LCOM )), I told them the service I'm needing from them and why I need it. Their services were topnotch which made working with them very easy, they got me everything I needed within few hours and it was amazing. I never knew technology has been so advanced that I can see everything wanted at the tip of my fingers (forgive me I'm not a techie and neither am I good at it), with their exceptional service, I was able to convince my lawyer on why I should get a divorce and start a new life.! This hacker literally saved me. I'm grateful

The lack of clear and correct information on media platforms has cost a lot to many people. I was also misled, which cost me even more money as I sought to recover my 91,000 USDT. I had worked with 4 hackers without success. It is never easy accepting that you have been scammed. So it's a constant mental struggle. It's not easy to share such information with your loved ones either. On my final shot at help-seeking, I came across the name TECH TASK HACKERS on the list of reviewed hackers by cyber security personnel. Spent a couple of evenings doing deep research on this team. Finally, I decided to give them a final shot and so I reached out to them. Very responsive and fast I must say. With a few starter questions(revolving around the amount, date, and addresses to which I lost my funds), we were started. So imagine my surprise when all was recovered within 24 hours. Honestly, I am baffled to date. They made it so easy to achieve what I thought was out of reach. So, anyone in need of some help like I did, in Cryptocurrency or Funds, drop them an email and talk to them. Email: techtaskhackersATprotonmailDOTcom
