Does he/she still find me attractive? Does she/he wonder what life would be like with their ex? Does he/she wonder what life would be like with another person period? Is he/she ashamed of me? Am I the world to him/her as he/she is to me? Can he/she imagine their life without me? Does he/she really love me?
Sure they say those three magical words ("I Love You") but do they express it? A lot of relationships tend to sour for many reasons. I have come to realize that one of the reasons has much to do with lack of expression. Don't assume that your partner knows how you feel. I've talked to a few couples (together and separately) and the one quote that kept popping up was: "He (or she) should know how I feel by now". This disturbs me. Just because you say those three words does not mean that your partner should be satisfied with that alone. How about trying to say a little more than I love you? Tell the person that you're in a relationship with exactly how you feel. If you feel like you can't breath the same when they're gone, express that to them. If your heart skips a beat every time your phone rings and it's him/her on the other line, express it! If hearing them say your name a certain way turns you on, express it! If you desire no other, express it! How does your honey know how you feel unless you tell them. Yes, I love you are three very meaningful and melodious words. But, what else? And after you communicate and express your feelings, show it! Visit your baby cakes when they least expect it. Put him/her first, after the kids of course!!! Hold each other after you make love once in awhile. Never ignore a sweet little note or gesture because although to you it may seem small, it could be a pretty big deal to your significant other. And you should be happy to have someone who would take the time out to leave you any kind of note whether it's encouraging or naughty. Acknowledge the little things. The more you acknowledge the little things, the more he/she will appreciate the big things. Often times, it is better to receive lots of little things than it is to get one big thing. Ever heard that saying, "it's the little things that count"? All that I'm trying to say is, don't assume that your man/woman knows how you feel because they may very well think the complete opposite. I know that letting someone know exactly how you feel can be scary. Let's face it, you're putting yourself out there. But, imagine the connection you may lose if you don't. Here's Hoping for the Best! LuV, MeLi
