Express Your Love in 7 Simple Ways
In any relationship it’s not always what you say but sometimes its how you say it. Especially when it comes to saying “I love you”. But saying “I love you” doesn’t necessarily mean an extravagant night on the town, two dozen long stem roses or serious bling. It really is the thought that counts! You can learn to say ‘I love you’ every day in these sweet and simple ways! Here are some practical everyday relationship tips on how to tell your partner “I love you” and show them that you are thinking of them!
1) Say It In Writing With Love Notes
It takes just 30 seconds to jot down those sweet nothings on a yellow Post-it. Stick it on the bathroom mirror or the refrigerator door before you leave the house for the day, or put in in his lunch box where he will find it later… it will put a smile on your sweetheart’s face and start their morning off right.
2) Find The Right Grooves.
Jump online and download a collection of your honey’s favorite tunes. Assemble them onto a CD and think of your very own clever album title. Find the old school jams that they can identify with and make sure the message is clear. They will love it.
3) Sweet Tooth Attack
Surprise your significant other with their favorite guilty pleasure. It’s the simple things in life that ramp up our happiness factor, so whether it’s a peppermint patty, a vanilla latte or the occasional Krispy Kreme doughnut, paying attention to your partner’s likes really means a lot to them.
4) Breakfast in Bed
Wake up Saturday morning and whip up a batch of blueberry pancakes or even some freshly squeezed orange juice, then deliver the goodies with a smile to your resting mate (but please, let them sleep in a bit first!).
5) Preemptive Shopping
Does your guy or gal have a particular passion for something? Browse through the store on occasion and pay attention to what they are buying when you shop together. Then, pick up a one or two items when they’re not around and surprise them. Let them know that you know them.
6) The Human Touch
A fabulous foot massage or back rub can ease away the tensions of the day and be a great way to reconnect. Light a few candles, put on some relaxing music and enjoy a quiet evening decompressing together.
7) A Day Off
Create a homemade coupon that entitles your loved one to an afternoon off from carpooling, babysitting, house cleaning or the usual chores. They will appreciate it more than you know.
