Dear Editor,

Mark Wignall's article of May 1, "Draw her closer to you" caught my eye, both headline and picture in equal parts. I read it at 6:00 am with my first cup of coffee - that time of the morning when hope and possibilities seem endless.

It stayed with me all day and night, and even now as I write. Mark, I don't know if you've ever written this sort of article before but this felt like someone reached inside me and squeezed my heart, painful but comforting. Painful because I wish to be cherished as you described, comforting because it was a man who wrote these words, and so all is not lost!

There are a few lines which I had to reread a few times:

. As she walks near, reach for the first sparkle in her eyes, savour the magic in the air, and draw her closer to you.

. When she trembles in fear of some failing or imagined fear, walk beside her, take her hand and be her love story.
. Fingers in her hair, a tickle of whispers on her face

The irony is that I've been married a long time to a man who adores me, but who doesn't understand how to cherish me, and so seeks to possess me. I know the sparkle has left my eyes.

I hope your article made many men sit up and take note. I'm sure the women did.
