Whether it's saying "I love you" before you both fall asleep at night or saying "no" to the dessert menu on date night when your partner is attempting to diet, there are a million ways to show how much you care about your significant other every single day. Most of the time, words aren't even needed to convey your love and appreciation. From taking care of the chores to planning a couples' getaway, any relationship could benefit from a little extra love, because even if you know how you feel, it never hurts to remind your partner. Here's just a few tiny ways I tell my partner just how much I care — no words required.
Saying "I love you" or "have a good day" in unexpected ways is always such a nice, welcome surprise.
If you know your partner hates loading the dishwasher, take on that chore yourself so they know you're thinking of their needs. They'll most likely do the same for you in return.
Be happy to see them! Hug and kiss when you reunite.
When your partner tells you about the highs and lows of their day, make sure you're fully focused on them and not on your phone or watching TV. They deserve your full attention, and vice versa.
If you see something you think they'll enjoy, send it over. Even if they can't respond right away, it lets them know you're thinking of them.
You definitely don't need to do this every day, but a small and inexpensive gift once in a while (maybe pop out to grab their favorite coffee on a Saturday morning) will mean so much.
This is also something that realistically can't be done daily, but keeping it as a regular activity will continue to strengthen your bond.
Don't always sit on opposite sides of the couch when you're watching your favorite show. Touch them in small ways and give them a little massage if they've had a hard day at work.
Did your partner stay up really late last night working on a project? Then take the dog out the next morning so they can sleep in a few extra minutes. It's all about the little things.
Whether they want to totally switch careers or go for a promotion, support them and be their biggest cheerleader on a daily basis.
