8 Ways To Show Your Love For Your Husband

No relationship will be successful if you don't work it out. Just like the flowers, it needs water and sunlight. I have been married to my husband for 5 years but we've been together for 10 years and over the years i have observed things that would pleased him. So in order to make him happy and show him how much I love and care for him, i should keep on doing the things that compliments him.Here are some of things i do for him...

1. My complete attention - Men's brain evolve to one thing ( book:Key to a man's heart) while we women tend to multi task. Often times i am the one who's more destructed by work, friends, mobile phone, children. But attending to them while talking to him makes him think that he is less important. So , keep an eye contact and limit interruptions as much as possible. Make him feel that he is the priority.

2. Serve his favorite meal - " the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach" i guess that is the best description everyone knows. Serving healthy foods makes him feel you wanted him to stay fit and healthy too.

3.Taking care of yourself - My husband is health conscious, he exercise often and i don't. So He keeps on encouraging me before to take care of my health specially now that we have a child. Pampering my self, exercising, eating healthy food indicates that " i want to have a long and wonderful life with you" 

4.Complimenting him - Genuine compliments on his looks and strength  confirm that you admire him which equates to love.

5. Encouraging him to take time for himself - This is what i keep on telling him, as long as your doing your obligations, fulfilling your duties and taking care of us, it doesn't matter to me if you have fun once in a while. I would love to see you having fun and enjoying life. Just don't indulges to vices, drunkenness, or adultery. That's a different thing. Encouraging him to take time for himself means showing support and allowing him to have the freedom to do what he wants, what he needs to be his best self. This will also indicates that you trust him.

6.Asking his advice - Asking for an advice shows that you rely on him and there's a place for him in your life. " when a man can fix something, he feels competent and useful".

7.Thanking him for the little things - Giving thanks will improve his attitude and infuse your relationship with a feel good energy. I still recall the time he asked me why i never said thank you to him, i told him i don't understand why he wanted to hear it because for me i never asked him to thanked me every time i did something for him.It's understood that we are grateful for each other. Well, again it's a feel good energy so instead of getting upset for his demand, ill do it for him. Anyways, it is an etiquette we can share with our kids too. To show and express gratefulness.

8.Intimacy - While woman connect verbally men connect more through touch. A big hug, a loving touch and sex. The chemical they release during sex stimulates the mental pleasure and reward center of a man says Dr. Dow.


9. Letting him vent - It shows you care. Just listen to his worries or problems without even trying to fix it. When my husband worked as an OFW for 3 years he often vent at me at night. Instead of having sex, we're having a conversation. I just feel his trust for venting on me. And at the same time i can feel how hard his life is when he was away from us. At least he was able to unload his burdens for quite a long time. I know it helps him.

I hope i will learn more ways other than these. You can share some tips on the comment box too...
