This post is all about ways to show your boyfriend you love him.
Humans thrive on being told how much they mean to other people, and out of everyone, your boyfriend especially wants to hear how much he means to you.
According to an elite singles psychologist, "Saying 'I love you' is more efficient than any other phrase. But saying it every day can seem a bit excessive. The heavy meaning of the three words may be lost over time, that's why it is best to be reasonable and save it for special moments."
It is important to always remind your significant other how much you love him, but showing him is a completely different story.
Sometimes I just have random thoughts and think, "I am so dang lucky to have such a great guy". I think about how much he does for me and wonder what do I do for him... and this is where I realize that I need to step my game up!
Saying those three words is a must in your relationship, but showing your love can spice your relationship up and prove that you really do care. {BTW, if you haven't gotten to that "step" of saying I love you, these are the perfect ways to show you DO without straight out saying it!!}
Here are three benefits of telling your significant other how much they mean to you:
-It shows commitment.
-It makes your partner feel secure.
-It creates a moment between you two.
These 22 creative ideas on ways to show your boyfriend you love him will show him just how much you care.
Cheesy Ways To Say "I Love You"
I am not a gushy person at all when it comes to relationships, but sometimes doing a "cheesy" gift is just what is needed! While not everyone might agree with me that these are all cheesy, these will definitely put a smile on your boyfriend's face (while making him feel just a little uncomfortable ;).
- Make a gift certificate book for him.
- Go an entire day without saying anything but positive remarks towards your partner.
- Write him a song
- Put sticky notes in random places that he will find later.
- Write him a small letter every day about something he did that you loved and give it to him at the end of the month.
- Order a heart-shaped pizza for dinner.
- Throw a grown-up slumber party for the two of you.
- Give a 365-day jar to him.
- Make him a gift and surprise him with it in the mail.

- Order a game he loved to play when he was a kid and surprise him with it.
- Plan a day revisiting all of your "firsts".

Not only will these show your man how much you love him, but they're also fun for you! I am going to pick one of these to do each day and see if he catches on and says anything...
