Guys, what do you think is the best way to express my feelings towards my husband, I am not really the vocal, expressive gal...I am not really comfortable saying thank you to my husband for the things he do for me, I am actually planning to have dinner with him in a restaurant, buy him small things I am really thinking so hard but I think he wants to go on a vacation...but it is me who cant find the time to do that as much as I wanted to do that I just cant seem to be able to focus on that for now. well I hope in the next month we would be able to.

I know there are people who are more vocal than others in that respect but if it is something you in turn like hearing, you can know he loves hearing it too. It is only two words, and if i can say thank you to someone one the street for opening a door, I could surely say it to the one who loves me the most, the hubby! If you start now it will be more easier in the future and he won't think you're not thankful for all he does for you. Believe me, he will like hearing it. of course you can show it also after saying it, thats a generous way of thanking him.

Saying thank you is the best way to express your feeling towards your husband. If you're not comfortable with it, try it and slowly you can appreciate its effect. Having dinner and going on vacation is also a nice way but saying thank you from the heart is also special.

The costliest thing you can do is, to thank your husband for every special things he did for you and in your most sincere way. Treating him to a dinner is good but I think it will be more romantic if you can prepare a special dinner for just the two of you and there you speak out all you want to tell him.

hi faith! for me the best way to say thank you to my partner is to hug him and treat him into a place which we can have more fun like going out of country and many more saying thank you to other person makes me feel better especially if it is important to appreciate what other people do to you

two little words Thank You goes a long way, but if you find it hard to say these words then maybe you should cook him something nice or go on a day out or get him some tickets for the game or something, maybe put a little note in the envelope saying thank you for everything you do for me and i love you

I do not have a husband yet, but maybe I can share something on this. What you are thinking is good. Those things will certainly make your husband feel special. He is very lucky to have you as his wife. Well, you can say thank you to him even in your own simple ways. By serving him like preparing his foods, washing his clothes or massaging his body when he is very tired. Those are simple things but it might mean something special for your husband.Giving a time for him is very precious because even you do not say "I love you", just by giving him your time will make him feel that you love him.

Hello Faith1118.. :) I’m always saying thank you for my loved one.. But if I want to show how much I appreciate him, I don’t show it by words first, but by a kiss.. I will hold his hands and looking deeply at his eyes and give him the sweetest kiss, after that I will say thank you and he will smile at me.. Just a simple action but has a deep meaning.. You can try too anytime you want.. =] Cheers, -cieldz-

I usually say it with words. I made sure that I show my appreciation to my husband by not letting a day passed by.

When it comes to my boyfriend, I am not the one who just throw around words like 'thank you' or 'I love you' without blushing. So when I want to show my feeling, I tend to put it into actions and respects. Like when I am being thankful when he did something, I treat him for dinner and said something like 'this dinner is an appreciation for this evening' or something like that. It's a good thing he understand as he knows I hardly say the words out loud.

hi there, i think maybe this is the time for you to express yourself since you don't do that much. i am thinking you can either take him to dinner or maybe cook for him a special dish, get him even a simple gift but very meaningful and lastly tell him that you are thankful for all the things he does for you i am sure he would really appreciate it. maybe you can plan for the vacation some other time, i would be best if it is a surprise good luck and i wish you all the best in your marriage.

How about cooking one of his favorite dish. Or just a dinner at his favorite restaurant, as your plan and buy him a small thing. That's enough I guess to say "thank you".

You already got your plan so just make it. But if you can also say "thank you" to your husband when your give present to him, it would be perfect. Don't worry about your vocation, time is much to both of you. As long as your put it in your heart, it will be easy to make it true. Enjoy your time with your husband.

I am not that vocal either. I think it is better for you to send him a card sometimes, like thank you cards.
