Be it to your boyfriends or girfriends, husbands or wives, friends, relatives, family or children or even to your neighbors. we all have different cultures and upbringings. we have different lifestyles and tastes. but how do we express our love to them or the people we love?

Like others said, love is not something word can tell expressing by mouth. it's something we must show either verbally or body language. Show to them. For me, sometime i will tell, but most of the time, i just show with my action. Something i do something opposite just to cover love expression. So, it's up to others to understand that :)

I give you the example of my action. My little sister just get good result for the mid exam, and she seems to proud with it. So i just scold her and tell her that if you not maintain and put more effort into it, the result will drop. You see, by the same time i want to tell that i'm so proud to her, but in the mean only i do understand about it :)

I do crazy things for love. Just kiddin! lolz. I'm not that type of person who expresses my love that much. I usually let them feel special by giving some presents.

being thoughtful is also sweet but kinda expensive. you could just imagine how the flowers and chocolates costs. but i bet it's not a problem with you.

I dont give expensive gifts. It doesn't measure your love anyway.

Let me see I cook foods for them that I don't like. Fix their clothing and wash it. I grow the foods in the garden alongside the ones I do like. I don't just up and leave. I tell them the truth. I buy them presents on holidays and birthdays. Just day to day tings that they might not do for themselves.

In my opinion love is more of action than words. Though l express it by saying nice words to the person. But l often do it by actions, doing what makes the person happy, giving, helping out, sharing in the person's pain and sorrow. Being around when l am needed.

doing it in action is better but would be a lot better if you are going to tell all this expressions of love to someone you love before putting this to action. just a tip.

Love is about our sense and emotion. sometimes, what we do to other people just express what will we do to ourselves. if i want to love other people, first i have to love myself.

I express my love by showing i care. showing them that im always there even they have no problems is one way of showing that i love them. But in my husband i show to him my love by trusting, respecting and understanding him in every way.

thats nice. respect alone is more than enough as an expression of love to spouse.

Love is a universal language.This is one emotion that we all feel at some point of time in our life no matter where we hail from.My expression of love is uncomplicated.For me,nothing except humanity supersedes love.My expression of love to a lover,friend or parents is different ,but one feature that's common for them all is that I'd do whatever I can to make them feel loved and cared.Humanity ,to me ,will take precedence over personal love because it is the love for the mankind.In other words it is universal love.
