Sometimes a quote can express love in a way our own words
cannot.
When in love it can be difficult to make sense of your own feelings -
feelings that are typically confusing and difficult to put into words.
Though it’s important to establish a natural way of
expressing your love for your significant other, be sure it’s never forced.
Trying to “force” a romantic exchange between you and your significant other will
set you up for disappointment.
And speaking of disappointment, one important point to
remember at all times is this: don't wait for your significant other to respond
in some way. Do not have a problem with how they react. Hear your significant
other and be fully engaged in every moment that passes. Loving isn't something
which can be defined concretely. Only loving.
It's my hope that these expressions of love will be incorporated into
your relationship to bring you and your significant other ever closer together.
There are usually two pivotal moments in most relationships that dictate if the
outcome is going to be heartbreak or "happily ever after."
But even then, no matter how deeply you and your man are
in love, disaster could come in between. If at some point he starts losing
interest, are you ready for it? Let's say he doesn't call back and that he gets
emotionally detached. It seems like he's pulling away... do you know what to
do?
