The Little Things That Count

Treat your girlfriend like a girlfriend. Don’t always treat her like one of the guys. Yes, it is ok that she is your best friend, but you don’t have to act like she is your fishing buddy.

Make her feel like she is important. Tell her how lucky you feel being with her. Make her feel like you need her. Tell her she’s beautiful and how you like it when she smiles. Tell her how thankful you are of how good she treats you.

Take your special girl out once in a while. Instead of taking her to hang out with your friends, take her out where it is just the two of you. It doesn’t always have to be to dinner. You can go on a drive, watch the stars, go for a walk, or even just watch a movie at home.

Hold your woman’s hand once in a while. Give her hugs and kisses. Don’t make it seem like you just want to head to the bedroom every time you touch her. Sit by her on the couch for once, not in the chair on the other side of the room.

Plan something romantic for the two of you. I’m not saying that you have to do the same ol’ special fancy dinner with candle light. Do something that she will appreciate.

Buy her something she is interested in or something meaningful for no reason at all besides the fact that you love her and you want her to have something that she enjoys.

Do something to show that you appreciate her. Give her a break during the day. Take over what she is doing and tell her to go relax. If she’s tired, tell her to take a nap while you handle things. If she is cooking, take over and tell her that you will make the meal.

It is the little things that count. Don’t expect anything in return. Just do it from the heart and out of true kindness.
