Let Them Know You Appreciate Them

So, talking with my sis yesterday led me to write this post. Your partner needs to know that you appreciate them, that you still find them attractive, especially after you've been together for a few years. It isn't enough to tell friends and/or family how much you appreciate your mate, how beautiful/handsome he/she is if you aren't letting them know how you feel. It's so much better to hear things "from the horse's mouth". I'm not saying that you have to tell your mate he/she is beautiful/handsome each and everyday or that you have to do extravagant things for them to show them you care every weekend, but I am saying that every now and then it's good to tell them how much you appreciate the things they do for you and compliment an outfit or change in hairstyles they may not think you've noticed. Think about this, it's the little things that make relationships worth having, something as small as saying "do you know how much I love you" can put a smile on your partner's face and remind them that you feel lucky to have them. They say women love attention, and I can agree that for the most part, we do, so in a lot of cases, if we're not getting the attention we're seeking at home, we'll go out and look for it elsewhere and the same can be said for men. Keep these things in mind and you'll have a happier, healthier relationship.
