As a relationship evolves and emotions deepen, individuals may struggle to articulate their feelings adequately. This difficulty often arises from the limited vocabulary available to express such complex emotions, with the word love, serving as the primary descriptor. Moreover, societal norms often associate love with marriage, adding pressure to the significance of uttering this word. Hence, many couples may find themselves in a deadlock, being hesitant to be the first to express their feelings outright. Even in committed relationships, there can be a reluctance to verbalise those three magical words ‘I Love You’.
But not saying the words aloud does not mean that the feelings have died out. There are many ways you can make your partner feel loved and special, even without uttering those words. If the cat gets your tongue every time you want to say ‘I love you’ to your partner, then here are a few actions you can take to make them feel loved instead. After all, actions speak louder than words.
Make Time For Them
In today’s fast-paced lifestyle, dedicating adequate time to your partner proves to be a Herculean challenge. However, this is very important to keep the spirit of the relationship alive. Go watch a movie together, go out dining together or simply sit and talk to each other. It does wonders for your relationship.
Special Dishes
It is often said that the way to a person’s heart is through the stomach and it is time to put that to the test. Cook for your partner, surprise your partner with their favourite dishes and watch them swoon over you.
Pay Compliments
Validation from a partner is an important part of relationships. Do not hesitate to compliment your partner on their skill sets. Be it their academic or professional achievements, cooking skills or singing skills, praise them and they will know that they are loved.
Paying attention to small things
The lack of attention to small details can still lead to hurt feelings. Living together doesn’t negate the importance of checking in regularly with your partner, such as asking about their well-being and daily activities. These small gestures of care and concern have the power to dissolve any lingering anger or resentment in a moment.
