My husband is Thai by birth and I'm American. He is not demonstrative. That's part cultural and part who he is. When we were first married I needed to hear the words, butgot used to looking for other signs of his love, such as him cooking my favorite Thai dishes. Twenty years married, we were sitting at a sushi bar waiting for our food when he turned to me and said, “I love you.” Shocked,I said, “Who are you sleeping with?" This November we'll be married 50 years. I think he loves me. -Lee Chinalai
