Expressing Love through Action

    Express your love in words. Arguably the most obvious way of showing love is through words of affirmation.[8] This can range from anything from a simple "I love you" to a more elaborate passage about all the things you admire about the person you love. This applies to love in friendships as much as romantic arrangements.
    • Often, saying "I love you" says more than most anything else, if only for the fact that people have placed so much emphasis on those three words.

    Use physical touch to your advantage. Touch can be used to a wide variety of positive effects.[9]While the benefits would seem most apparent in a romantic connection, love may be demonstrated in all types of love. Depending on the type of connection you have with someone you love, physical affection may come naturally, and it may be reciprocated in turn. Physical touch feels good, and helps promote good feelings between the both of you.[10]
    • Kissing and cuddling are best suited to show romantic love.
    • A handshake or a hug can demonstrate platonic love.

    Make a habit of gift-giving.[11]Gifts are a great thing if you want to express your love to someone. While words go a long way, a gift is a concrete sign of your affection. Gifts can be as small or as big as you want. The important thing is that the gift was given with sincere feelings behind it. The types of gifts you might give depends on the type of love you're expressing:
    • Flowers are a very common gift to give to a romantic lover.
    • Less symbolic gifts, like concert tickets, may be given to friends or family.

    Make it last. When people first begin to love, they rarely consider the long-term ramifications. It can feel amazing to love someone at first, but the greatest rewards come from a lot of persistence and effort from both sides. Once you have a strong relationship, don't get lazy; feed it every day. Whether that's through repeating the steps or exploring new ways, making love last is very important. If love was thought to be short-lived, it would never feel as powerful as it does.
