Magical ways to Express Love to your partner

Love is one of the most exhilarating, most exciting experiences in life. The magical connection when you are with the right person is unbelievable!

Many people believe that not only loving but expressing love properly can solve many problems in life.

We do not understand the importance of fostering relationships in our life, until we regret losing them! Like any other relationship, loving your life partner needs to be a continuous process that you happily grow old together with a deep sense of caring for them throughout.

In this post, many ways of expressing love to your life partner are shared, especially when it comes to sustaining in a marriage, nurturing, or nourishing a healthy relationship...

Do listening more than talking. 

When you want to understand your partner’s mind and make them feel more understood and connected with you, this is the best way. Proving your intellect, oratory skills, your ability to persuade, or your leadership skills – all these are good, but not when you are with your partner. Just listen to them with all your ears, heart, and mind and not just your ears, while looking at your mobile phones!

 Say ‘I love you’ more frequently and mean it

State these magical words in a way that they mean a lot to you. Impress them by your creativity and artistic skills! There are very creative ways to write “I LOVE YOU”, implicitly and rather not directly, to your partner. Check out my post on Handmade Flashcards.

Acknowledge their actions. Appreciate them more often

Being appreciated in a relationship makes a person feel special, happy, loved, respected, grateful, honored, and treasured. On the other hand, if you don’t acknowledge or appreciate their actions, slowly they lose interest in doing anything at all for you. The longer that person feels unappreciated the more likely it is that they may come to resent being taken for granted.

Prioritize your partner and prove their importance in your life.

Given an opportunity to showcase your priority for the relationship, grab them, and make sure you mean it. Remember, your life partner is your family, and your family is the first priority. For instance, prioritize your partner amidst your busy schedule; take time for a pleasant evening walk with your partner to his favorite soup shop just to enjoy the weather together.

Completely open up & Share your feelings and life with them daily.

Every relationship is healthy when people mutually become compatible and trustworthy to each other by sharing their feelings. Being transparent doesn’t mean you are susceptible or silly to talk about everything to your partner, but that you trust your partner and you want him included in your life’s story.

Spend valuable time with your partner.

Time is the most precious thing one can have. So, show them they mean a lot to you by spending some time with them, if possible, every day. Go for a late-night drive with them to their favorite dessert spot and talk through about how the day went.

Be the first person to compromise in a fight.

When you fight over an issue, make sure you solve it, the same night by explaining how your partner is important than winning the argument with them. Dragging the same problem for days and waiting for one another to open up & confess will only bring egotism in the relationship. Also, ensure that another argument doesn’t pop up again on the same issue. and understand the situation before jumping into a conclusion.


Love.

Always wear the priceless ornament (your smile).

Carry yourself with confidence.

Be classy.

Instill Inspiration.

Grow gratitude.

Believe in them.

Breathe happiness.

Have Self-respect for you first, to gain the same from your partner.

Forget your ego & forgive more.

Be patient.

Care; not only for your partner but also for their family.

Be there when your partner or their family needs you. A caring ping or call to their parents, just to know that they are safe & sound would be sufficed. Be a part, rather a helping hand in all important family occasions so that you become a close family member of ‘your own second family’.

Cook them with love, their favorite meal & help them stay healthy.

Know your partner’s likes & dislikes in food, learn new recipes accordingly. Food has a deep psychological effect; cook your dish wonderfully by adding some more love & care in it, and this simple act makes your partner happy & is forever grateful to you!

Inspire them and bring both of your dreams to reality.

Everybody has individual goals & dreams to fulfill in their life. When it comes to a healthy relationship, each of them should know of their partner’s life dreams and mutually help one another to reach for the sky. Forget once & for all, competitiveness, jealousy or selfishness with your partner, when you need a happy relation.

Motivate them at times of failure and cheer them up.

When your partner is having tough times at work, support them and cheer them up. Know about your partner’s favorite stress buster and do it. Or take a small break from the mundane work life; go for a short trip to their parents’ or friends’ place to spend time together.

Try to remember important & little things about your partner.

I know it is difficult to remember to do these little things, but this matter in a relationship. When your partner is suddenly going on a business trip for a couple of days and you pack his baggage remembering a handkerchief, an extra pair of socks, first aid kit. Or, when your partner lets you take the aisle seat when you get the middle seat on a plane knowing that you aren't comfortable. These are little but important things.

Do the things together your partner love doing with you.

This moment stays precious in their mind forever. When your partner likes to watch football, and you accompany them by supporting the opponent team, makes the session more interesting. Similarly, sit & eat along with your partner during dinners and Sunday brunches! This adds a bit more love to your meal.

Have a lot of intellectual and interesting conversations together.

When you are newly married, you will obviously have a lot to talk about each other; but if you are in the relationship for quite some time, your conversation becomes limited. You may talk about trending sport, TV shows or movies, passion in life, best moments spent together, world news, crack jokes, and so on. Personally, I and my partner used to converse uttering timely comedy dialogues from movies.

Befriend your partner’s friends and get along well in their gang.

This is one other way to become closer to your partner (even outside of your home). Plan vacations, travel, dine out, or watch movies with both of your friends' gang and spend time together so that you also become your partner’s best friend.

Make them feel special with a loving smile when you’re in a crowded event.

Be it family functions or friends party, we socialize and you might miss out your partner in the crowd. For a moment, you found your lost partner looking at them with a caring smile. YES! That is what I mean. That expression of relief, concern & love in your eyes is magical!!

Collect and preserve the memories of your relationship and save them for later so that you can give a surprise gift on a special day. Make collages to print pictures, make a scrapbook with pictures. Make sure you check this post for ideas to preserve memories.

Going with ‘the old fashioned way’.

Send a hand-written letter or email or a greeting card by expressing your feelings, if you are staying away from one another. You can write and sing a romantic song or poem for your partner.

Touch is the best therapy for handling a relationship.

To most people, physical relationships bring in more intimacy and trust than all of the above stated. It is always an effective stress buster. Hug your partner more often. Give your partner a special massage. Just these simple acts prove to be the best of all therapies! 

"Be that man or that woman, who makes others jealous of his or her partner".

Believe me, most of these have done miracles in my life and I really hope these work out well with you guys too!! Comment below your way of expressing love and tell us such experiences from your life......
