#3 - Speak your love out loud.
- There are endless ways to profess your love verbally.
- "I love you."
- "You're a special person."
- "I love the way you laugh."
- "I love it when you get totally serious."
Don't be shy about it. Use your own words to express your true feelings in a spontaneous way. It's unlikely you can overdo it as long as you're sincere and thoughtful in telling your partner how you feel.
It's not enough to simply assume your partner knows they're loved. They still need to hear the verbal message, "I love you." Your partner is not a mind reader. They may think you love them, but they know you love them when you show them and tell them so. Loving grows and thrives on free expression.
