Yes. Non-verbal communication and silence work too.

Can confirm, I hold our evenings together laying in bed next to each other reading different books or whatever in high esteem. We're not disfunctional, we're just introverted, though we like each other's company.

I thought I was in my messaging app when I read the first sentences and was confused. I thought I was included in the “our evenings” 😆

That sounds lovely and relatable. I let my affection show in glances etc too or a brief hand on the shoulder. Whatever feels authentic at the time.
