How to Show Your Wife or Husband or gf/bf That You Truly Love Them.
Here are some steps to show your partner how much you really love them.
Steps
Expand your love to include yourself. This may sound contrary to the objective, but you can't really love your partner fully, until you have loved the parts of yourself that you previously believed are unlovable. This doesn't have to happen overnight, but each day, you might spend ten minutes loving yourself the way that you want to love your partner. Follow the steps below and apply them to yourself as well. As you increase love for yourself, your love for your partner will grow even deeper.
Find out your partner's preferred "Love Language." Do they know you love them when you speak words of love? Or maybe they feel loved by your actions? Some people feel loved by receiving little gifts, and others by the time that is spent with them. Each are great ways of loving someone, but finding out your partner's preference will enable you to love them in ways that are particularly valuable to them.
Speak your love. Clear communication will let your partner know how much you love them. Speaking from your experience is a way of sharing yourself so that your partner can hear it. You might say, "My heart expands when you walk into the room." or "I think about you all throughout my day, and each time I do, I smile." Say whatever is true for you.
Show your love through your actions. Drawing a bath, giving a massage, doing the dishes, or writing a poem. Choose an action that appeals to you as well as your partner! If you're doing something you don't want to do, no matter how much you love your partner, it'll show.
Spend time being present with your partner. (This is often the least used, but the most powerful form of loving.) Turn off the phone, the TV, and the radio and sit together allowing yourselves to experience each other with out words. Being present with one another allows for total acceptance, and expands the love that you both feel.
Appreciate yourself and your partner. Successful relationships have a 5 to 1 ratio of appreciations to criticisms. Notice things big and small about your partner that you really value, and say them out loud.
Speak the truth. Telling your partner your truth is such a loving thing to do because it shows trust, respect, and it creates a deep connection. If you want to share how much you love them, but don't know how, it's okay to say exactly that. If you're scared you'll do it wrong, then tell her that. The truth doesn't have to be "Positive" to be meaningful. It just needs to be true for you.
Tips
You can't make a mistake in loving someone. Anything you do with love in your heart is a wonderful thing-- for you. If she also feels loved by it, then that's great too!
Take your partner out to different places such as out for dinners, movies, or vacation.
