Love is a universal language, however, not everyone knows how to speak it adequately to their partner and that special person in their lives.
Sometimes, saying “I Love You” seems to solve a lot of problems and puts your mind at ease, however, what happens when you are not too big on saying those words, but would rather act? Not to worry, based on your partner’s preference through communication and understanding, here are some ways you show to your partner that you truly mean those magic words.
- Spend Quality Time: Some people equate time spent with their partner, to mean that he/she actually cares about them. If your partner falls into that category, why not give it a try, and spend some good time with them, catching up on everything missed, or whatnot. You can also plan a date, without inviting guest, to give room for your partner to express his/her self, that way they know you love them and really mean it.
- Surprise Gift: Everyone loves a pleasant surprise! Well, almost everyone. Buying random gifts for your partner shows that you actually care about and they are constantly in your thoughts. It doesn’t have to be an expensive gift, however, it should be very thoughtful. You can also pick cues from your conversation with them about what they presently need, and get it as a surprise.
- Listen: We live in a world where everyone wants their voice to be heard. Right after struggling to get their voices heard, you should be the last person your partner would try to make listen to what they have to say. Sometimes, you don’t really need to respond or have a say, all you just need to do is listen. This would go a long way in strengthening the bond you already share with your partner.
- Acts of Service: Most times, there is no better way to shout the words “I Love You” than just helping your partner out with whatever task they might have been struggling with. For instance, helping your partner grab a package in their stead would go a long way to show that you truly care, and would want to ease a ton of their discomfort. Go the extra mile for that special someone.
- Celebrate Them: A relationship is a two-way street, and sometimes, you don’t get what you don’t give. Celebrate the small and big wins in the lives of your significant other, let them know that you are their biggest fan, and you stay rooting for them. Against all odds, you should be their best support system.
Despite practicing these acts that scream “I Love You” to your partner, it would still be nice, if they heard it from you. Go on, just say those words.
