The Importance Of Showing Your Love
When we say that ‘ someone has come into our lives ‘, it means that this person is no longer any random person and that he has come to play an important role by being with us. We get closer to this person and we begin to feel comfortable.
In these moments, when warm feelings begin to arise and they are mutual, the best thing we can do is to try to preserve and show these feelings.
When we love someone, just feeling is not enough. You also need to show it and involve that other person in your experience.
Show you love him
Sometimes we love that person but don’t know how to show it. It could be a friend, relative or your partner. We might even take for granted that he knows we love him and don’t want to lose him.
“If we want it, we must be brave enough to say it, and if we say it, we must be brave enough to do it.”
-GB Clemenceau-
Ovedia Rosales, a therapist, says showing that you love someone will make them more willing to continue to love you.
Therefore, it would be very positive if we told our parents and children more often that we love them, if we cared more about our friends and fought more for the feelings of our partners. Today we give you the tools to do just that.
Six keys to showing your love
There are many ways to show someone how we feel and we probably overlook the simplicity of this. It won’t mean much to us, but the other person will see it as very special.
1. The smallest details matter the most
All the little gestures added together strengthen our relationships more than we think. We shouldn’t think that one great gift at any given time is enough to keep someone in our lives forever. One great gesture or a beautiful gift is no guarantee for the future. The best guarantee is given from day to day: let every time you see that person thinks that you care about him and that he is important to you. He will appreciate it.
2. Love yourself first
It is very good to know that if we intend to love someone, we must love ourselves first.
We often think it is love to give ourselves completely to someone, but this is not true if we forget about our individuality. Respecting our personal space is the only way we can love ourselves and others.
3. Knowing someone well is the first step
Remember that every person has their most sensitive points and if we want to make them feel special, the first thing we should do is get to know them.
The moment we know his preferences, fears and worries and know what makes him happy, then all that remains is to prove this knowledge. Let him know that you can minimize his difficult moments and promote the things that make him happy.
Remember that a chocolate, a walk, a letter or a simple phone call can brighten someone else’s day.
4. Spend your time with him
One of the most valuable things we have in life is the ability to do whatever we want with our time. Therefore, spending our time with others is a way of showing our love and desires.
It is extremely important that the other person knows that you want to spend time with them, although this can be quite difficult at times, due to distance for example. However, if you can do it, then do it.
There are many ways to shorten distances and spend our time together, even if it means spending a lifetime together. You can probably think of a million ways to do this.
5. Show affection
“El roce hace el carino. This saying means ‘close contact breeds affection’ and is so very true.
It seems too obvious, but in many circumstances we forget that those who love us need us to express our affection every now and then. It is not only physical contact, a smile for example can also give someone the feeling of being embraced.
6. Trust the other, accept and respect his way of being
Listen to him or her as how you want to be listened to, forgive and show how you feel.
Because loving and knowing how to show it equals loving someone twice. Because if you want him or her in your life, you have to make sure that he or she wants to stay with you.
