Say it loud and say it proud!
Not just to your spouse, but if you love someone, let them know. Say "I Love You", or "Love Ya" or anything like that. I think it means so much to hear the words.
Sure, you can say i love you with your actions, you can hug, you can provide for, take care of, and whatnot but it means more than you would ever know to hear it said.
If you are a man, do not EVER think it is not manly to say I love you to your son, or daughter for that matter. Saying I love you to your kids is so important. No matter how old they are. I am 25 and my dad says I love you to me every single phone conversation we have. It means a lot. Something about the dad and kids that is special, so to hear I love you from daddy means a lot.
If you were brought up not saying it, BREAK THE CYCLE!! Dont keep that going....make it stop with you. Tell your kids you love them all the time. Tell everyone you love that you love them, often.
Please!
So true..I am a Big Sister for Big Brothers Big Sisters..and I told my little sister that I loved her while we were talking on the phone. Next time I got together with her she asked me about that and asked if I really loved her-and I said of course, you are so special and amazing! The look on her face was priceless...the power of conveying feelings... :)
