Have you ever tried to tell someone how much you love them?

Have you ever told some one how much you love them only to find that words can't express it? I want to tell my husband that I am so very much in love with him, but it seems the words would just sound dry and dull. I want him to know that I really do love him and that he means the world to me. Have you ever had that happen to you? How are some other non-verbal ways you say I love you to your s/o?

I am sorry that she did that to you. That really stinks. You will find some one who will love you liked you loved your first ever love.

love i feel is somthng tht cn nvr be said but shud be experienced and understood. somtimes poems, romantc songs, walks on the beach, stolen kisses, surprise gifts, getting angry if our partner isnt taking care of their health... sch acts prove to be mre effective in sending out the msg...

That is what I mean. I think that is it. I just think that the things I do do isn't enough for him to see.

i'm like you... it's hard for me as well to tell someone that i love them.. i don't know why that is though but personally i think should know that you love them or they wouldn't be with you.. Sometimes though it's vise versa some men can't say it either, it's also hard for them to say such words.. some people can and some can't..

There have been good ideas posted here all ready but I wanted to share another good way to let your husband know you love him without words. Listen to him, I mean really listen to him when he talks about troubles or happy things or whatever. You'll learn a lot about your husband this way and the other non-verbal actions you can take to show him you love him will come to you. Can't tell you specific things to do because I don't know your husband. Can tell you that I know my husband very well and can sense when there is something bothering him and what he needs to feel better, whether it be a few hours out fishing by himself, a backrub or whatever. Just be there for him in every way that you can and your husband will feel those non-verbal love statements. :)

That is good that you tell them that you love them. Have you done anything to show them?

I guess you're not ready to tell the exact phrase for your partner. I was deeply inlove with my girl before she was my girlfriend, I told her the way it should be. She smiled at me and hug me tightly. I was afraid or shy at first but I conquer it my fear. Just be yourself and everything will be fine.
