Is it necessary for the husband to tell the wife "I love you"?

Q: A wife wants a husband to let her know that he loves her. But the husband says that you can feel my love in my actions,there's no need to say it in words. Words are meaningless. My question is, is it right for the husband to say that? Because the wife has been upset after that because the husband doesn't utter and express his love in words. The wife doesn't know what's the problem to say I love you to her.

Husband flirting with women

Q: I have been married for eight years with no children. My husband is flirting with women on the phone. He promises them marriage, he gives them money, he takes them out he even booked a hotel room for one of them. I tried talking to him about it but it's like he doesn't hear me. I asked for divorce in January. He refused to give it to me and he apologised and said he will stop but I should give him some time. It's been 9 months now, when I ask him about the progress of the matter he is not answering me. Now I'm thinking of moving out of our home but I don't know if it's a right thing to do. Please I need your help.

Husband watching TV

Q: My husband watches TV a lot. I don't like the TV at all. I have some questions, is it fine if I tell him while he is watching TV or Youtube videos about something Islamic? Like for example I said today while he was watching a Youtube video, "today is the 10th of Muharaam we can buy food", or is it wrong and should I wait for when he is not in front of the TV or watching  Youtube videos? I thought that talking about Islamic things like that is wrong while he is watching haraam but I still did it. Also if I am in the kitchen and I can hear the music from the TV, and some sauces and spice bottles that stay in the kitchen have eyes on it and I am talkikng on the phone to a friend and I use words as "Insha Allah" and "make Dua" "Allah knows best" etc is that also wrong? I am doing that at the moment and I am feeling guilty please advise?

Asking the husband for divorce if he takes a second wife

Q: My question is about second marriage. I have very good relation with my husband and his family. My husband loves me and our two daughters. My in-laws think that I am an ideal wife and ideal daughter in-law , however, my husband says that some men need more than one wife and recently he was seriously thinking about second marriage. I told him that if he wants a second wife, then he has to divorce me first. I have no problem with his getting married for two or three times but I do not want to be his wife in that case. He said he cannot leave me. As I know him, he loves me but he needs more wives as well. What would be my situation in Shariah if I refuse to keep marital relations with him?

Daughter in-law problems

Q: My son got married two years back,which I was against but however he did not listen and proceded with the nikah.

She is troublesome and brings on petty issues that has no concrete reasoning just to bring on a fight. Her parents are very controlling in my son's marriage. Please can you give me a dua that she leaves our family to prevent further future problems and they separate.
