    My FH is not good about knowing what makes him feel loved.  I want to show him I love him in the way that he feels it, but it's super hard when he can't figure that out.  So ladies- any suggestions?  What does your SO like you to do to show you love them?

    It's all about the little things. FI loves tea, so whenever we're just relaxing, I get up and make him some tea.. I try to go out once a week and purchase different flavors/brand so that he can try new ones :)

    @guitargirl:  Have you ever read the Five Love Languages?  Maybe this is something you could do together to figure out what would make each of you (especially him) feel loved most.  My DH loves to receive cards, texts, and random notes around the house...even silly places like on his soda cans in permanent marker or on his mirror in the bathroom for when he wakes up.  Smile

    @guitargirl:  I give him little kisses when he least expects it eg: when making dinner or washing up.  If he has been talking about a book or film, I will buy the book for him or take him  for a cinema date.  I tell him I love him every morning when I leave for work and every night before going to sleep (sounds soppy I know!).

    He always open doors for me so when he is going to the driver side of the car, I open his door for him from the inside. If he is watching TV and I'm on the internet, I'll take the laptop and sit next to him and cuddle our feet together. When he has a hectic work schedule, I'll try to swing by and bring him lunch. When he has to leave on a trip, I always hdie a love note in his luggage and he has to find it when he lands. Sometimes, I put toothpaste on his toothbrush for him as I'm getting ready to brush my teeth. Just the little things. I don't do them all the time, but as many times as I can.

    I love this! He likes a nice kiss on the lips when he comes home from work. i buy him his favorite travel sized anything when he has a trip and pack him snacks. I send him a hello text while he's at work saying how much we miss him (me & the cats). I will pick out his shirt and tie sometimes for the next work day so he doesn't spend 15 min in the morning frieking out over colors and stripes & what looks good with what (he's such a guy in that regard). I love surprising him with a 30 pack of beers sometimes or Champagne. He loves it when I do his laundry and he doesnt have to fold or hang.

    I always kiss him when he leaves for work, tell him I love him, cook for him, make him breakfast, take care of him when he's not feeling well, send him emails throughout the day, etc.

    It sounds really silly but I really think my SO feels loved when I cook for him, wash his clothes, things like that. When I "take care of him" I know he loves that. I also send him really loving text messages to let him know I appreciate him working so hard etc. He gets home around 3-4am so sometimes I'll leave him a note or letter on the counter :) Make his favorite desserts. If I see something at the mall or at a dept store that I know he'd really like, I'll randomly bring it home for him :) Cute thread!! Now I miss my honey..

    Make dinner & his favorite dessert, give him scalp and back massages before bed, take care of his laundry for him, make him some tea or coffee when he has to work from home on the weekends. Just little things. I care for him and the house and he supports us. It sounds very old fashioned but I love it!

    I give him massages, head over to his work with food for his breaks, make him dinner, get him pillows and blankets when he falls asleep on the couch, I tell him as often as I can how much I love him. =)
