- Write him a love note and hide it somewhere he will find it (wallet, computer, briefcase, etc.)
- Surprise him with a gift. It doesn't have to be something expensive, it could be something that you made for him yourself, or just his favorite drink/snack!
- Compliment him. - Do you think he has killer eyes? Or do his strong arms make you melt?? Tell him! You aren't the only one that loves compliments
- Give him guilt-free time with his friends or to work on his hobbies
- Lighten his load. Is there anything you can do to help him out? Clean out the garage, organize his desk, wash his car, etc.
- Dress up for him for no reason. After being with someone for a long time one of the major perks is that you don't always have to look your best, but sometimes we take it a bit too far maybe? Get all dolled up for him like you would for your first date!
- Encourage him and support his dreams
- Make his favorite food. My grandma believes that the quickest way to a man's heart is his stomach.... and she was married for over 50 years to the same man. She might know what she's talking about!
- Praise him in front of his family and friends. Who doesn't like being bragged about?
- Kiss him as soon as he comes in the door and every morning before he leaves
- Play songs that are special to you as a couple from when you were dating
- Plan a fun day for just the two of you. Nothing makes a man more crazy then the indecision of figuring out something to do, especially when our response is usually " I don't care". Instead of making him figure it out plan something you know he will love. Is your guy an outdoorsy man? Rent some bikes or go for a hike. Is he a sports man?? Take him to see a sports game.
- Give him a massage after a hard day
- Sit on his lap. Sometimes guy's like a good snuggle too!
- Hold his hand. This one may seem silly, but when you reach over and take his hand it is a great way to connect even if you aren't talking
- Give him ALL of your attention. Put down your computer/phone while he's talking to you and actually look him in the eyes. Listen to what he has to say without interrupting.
- Choose the sexy pajamas over the comfy flannels jammys sometimes.
- Flirt with him in public. It shows him that you are just as crazy about him as you always have been
- Bring him breakfast in bed. Come on, you know he's done it for you. Return the favor!
- Have supper going so the house smells great when he walks in.
What are some ways that you make your man/woman feel special??
I LOVE THIS! These are such good reminders and they're all so easy to do. Most of them are things I have done but maybe not recently. I'm gonna get on that. But seriously... do I have to choose the sexy PJs? I just want to wear the big tshirt and baggy sweats.
