When you love a woman, you want to make her feel special, and little gestures can go such a long way towards ensuring that she feels cared for and appreciated by you. It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s a holiday or a regular Tuesday, the little things you do for her will help sustain your relationship, even through the tough times. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing that’s also important is learning what your special lady\u2019s love language is. Popularized in the book <\/span>The Five Love Languages<\/span><\/i> by Gary Chapman, knowing her love language<\/a>\u2014whether it be in acts of service or spending quality time together<\/a>\u2014allows you to know exactly how to keep her \u201clove tank\u201d full. If she\u00a0 loves receiving thoughtful gifts and you\u2019re only complimenting her all the time, she may not actually feel loved, even if you\u2019re doing everything you can to show her that. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following gestures are little things you can do to help her feel loved. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Compliment her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Tell her she has a great butt. Tell her how much you appreciate that she went and picked up the kids from school. Send her a sweet text message telling her she\u2019s going to do great on her big work presentation. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Touch her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Whether it\u2019s a casual grope when no one is looking or a bear hug before you leave for work, do it. Hold her hand. Touch her arm. Give her a foot rub or back rub. Sex is included in this too, but sex is so much more than just the physical act. It can be all of those little things you do to show you desire her. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s also important that not all of your gestures are done with the expectation of sex. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surprise her with tickets to a show or a mini-vacay.
\n<\/strong>While these may not always be possible, it shows you listen. It shows you care. It shows you want to spend some good quality time with her and she matters.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bring home take-out from her favorite restaurant.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>We\u2019ve all had those rough days where all we want to do is stay in. Surprise her with her favorite meal, so she doesn\u2019t have to go pick something up or change to go out. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make the bed.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>It\u2019s always nice to crawl into a made bed at night. If you want to get REALLY romantic with it, make sure the sheets are totally clean too!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean out her car for her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>She may be really busy or a total slob, or she\u2019s a mom and spending the majority of her time carpooling, so she\u2019s got goldfish crushed in every nook and cranny of the seats and every square inch of her floorboards. Cleaning out her car for her makes her think about how grateful she is for you every time she opens the door and climbs in. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buy her her favorite shade of nail polish or that stupid little toy she said she liked when you were last at the store.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>You don\u2019t have to wait for a holiday, her birthday, or your anniversary to buy her something. It also doesn\u2019t always have to be a <\/span>big<\/span> something to matter. It can be just those little things that you know she would like. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Write her a cute note to find later.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Remember when you were in middle school and a girl left you a cute note saying she had a crush on you? You can still have a crush on your lady, even if you\u2019ve been together ten years. Tell her so in a little note that makes her swoon.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pack her lunch for her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Maybe she\u2019s been complaining that she\u2019s going out to lunch too often during work or she\u2019s mostly been eating whatever her kids don\u2019t. Pack her a lunch so she doesn\u2019t have to worry about it. If she likes healthy meals, do that, or make her that mac n\u2019 cheese recipe she\u2019s been talking about and wrap that up for her. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open the door for her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Depending on the kind of woman you\u2019re with, this may reflect kindness and respect on your part, or maybe she\u2019s a woman who can open her own door and doesn\u2019t want you to, so be mindful. But the act can convey that you appreciate her and care for her, whether she\u2019s getting out of the car or walking into a restaurant. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do one of her household chores for her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>If she\u2019s always the one to do the dishes or laundry, take it on for her one day. She’ll love coming home to an empty sink or laundry that\u2019s already been put away. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Draw her a bath.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>If it\u2019s been a long hard day or just a normal day and she likes taking baths, go ahead and start a bath for her, light a candle with her favorite scent, or play some soft music. She\u2019ll come out relaxed and knowing how much you appreciate her. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Offer to do one of her hobbies with her.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>No couple has all of the same hobbies, so offer to join her book club, go shopping, or go on a long bike ride with her. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bring her breakfast in bed.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>This is a no-brainer!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talk her up to others.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Whether it\u2019s a sweet shout-out on social media or a compliment at a gathering, let other people know what you love and appreciate the most about her. Let them know that she worked her butt off and got that promotion or that she\u2019s been losing sleep over working a full-time job and taking night classes. You fell in love with her for a reason, and she\u2019ll know you see all of the hard things she does if she finds out you\u2019ve been talking her up. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We so commonly do sweet things like this in the beginning of our relationships, but it’s in the middle that the little things matter the most. You aren\u2019t trying to win her over anymore; you\u2019re trying to keep your love strong, so incorporate some of these into the beautiful regular old life you share together. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
