9 ways to express love to your man other than saying ‘I love you’

Women love to hear the three magical words ‘I love you’ but when it comes to men, things might work a bit differently.

Men are not so much into verbal pronunciation of love and may want to see things done for them instead of mere mention of words.

There are many ways to express love to your man other than saying ‘I love you’. It makes them feel special when they know they have your 100 per cent attention.

This can be done by showing physical appreciation so don’t shy away from giving him lots of hugs and cuddles.

He will definitely notice the special touch in the way you caress him. So if you want to show the man in your life how much you care, try these things and see him smile.

1. Don’t ignore him when together

Give your man your undivided attention and show him that he is your priority. When you’re together, spend time without any intrusion. Avoid checking your phone often, taking calls or diverting your attention from him. Focus on what he is saying and doing. Maintain eye contact, hold hands and simply have time only for him.

2. Rustle up his favourite meal

It’s known that best way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. So, rustle up his favourite meal even if there is no special occasion. The fact that you know what he likes when it comes to food, shows that you care a lot about him.

3. Dress up the way he likes

Wearing that dress which he loves to see you in, sends his brains the right signals. It shows you desire him, value his liking and want to look good for him. So, once in a while just doll up his way!

4. Admire him genuinely

Who doesn’t like compliments? While women attract a lot of them, men have to make do with fewer ones. However, men like genuine compliments whether it is for their looks, attire, manners or their work. It’s difficult for men to pick up subtleties in conversations when it comes to admiration if they don’t expect it. Thus, a direct dialogue with them is advised to avoid misunderstandings. You will see him glow after the compliment as you admire him for his traits making him feel secure as to why you opted for him over other guys.

5. Take his advice

Any man will feel important when you seek his guidance on various problems that you may be facing. It shows that you trust his opinion on important aspects and that you value his judgment. It makes them feel competent and useful.

6. Say ‘Thank You’

It is a joint responsibility to maintain the house, but many times women take it for granted when men do routine chores in their absence. Men also have extra energy for additional tasks and if you have such a man in your life don’t forget to give due to his good deeds and express your feelings. Saying thanks will infuse positive energy in your relationship.

7. Be a good listener

Even men have issues bothering them whether at home or at work. When these reach a limit, allow him to vent and help release all that tension. As compared to women, men are less expressive when it comes to talking about their emotions. They often think logically and fear being ridiculed. So, whenever a man wants to open up to his partner, he wants her to be more empathic and listening. He is happier if you are listening with intent and understanding the points he is trying to make, rather than you behaving like a teacher or his mom.

8. Get into a quickie mood

Instead of sticking to a routine schedule of love making, indulge in a quickie once in a while. Romance, foreplay and making love for an hour might not always be possible, so once in a while just engage in plain, simple sex which is something men really look forward to.

9. Give him a warm hug

Remember to give your man a nice hug before leaving the house. And don’t make it a quick peck, but hold him close in your arms and enjoy the squeeze. Men relate to bonding through touch so let the hug be for more than a few seconds. When you both are done, you will end up receiving positive vibes from each other.
