Working out sweet things to say to your boyfriend in not easy, especially if you are not accustomed to saying sweet things or perhaps a little shy or embarrassed.
Your boyfriend may also feel likewise so there are a few things you might want to take into account before diving in had first!
Among all the loving stuff to say to your man those familiar three little words usually say it all but I know that you want to make it out of the ordinary and personalise it so let's talk about giving compliments...
Compliments
I love you may be a sweet thing to say to your guy but why do you love him? What's so special about him that you love? What has he done for you that no-one else can or why do you try to spend so much time with him?
A good friend once told me that a compliment only became real if it involved taking a risk. If you think about that for a second,what they were trying to say is that it must mean something and you must show your feelings a little for it to mean anything.
For instance, we thought about the phrase I love you, it might be a nice thing to say but would he like that or something that you took a little risk over and exposed yourself more?
For instance (Supposing this were the case) I wanted you to know how much I appreciate the way you have made me be a more self assured person and respect my own self a lot more. That's why I love you.
Understand how one is a nice thing to say to your boyfriend but the other is not only sweet, it is sincere and you took a risk. Which one do you think he will appreciate more?
We have learnt about compliments, let's discuss the right way to do it...
Pick Your Time
Men are different from us girls and it is really important to pick your time wisely. You may think it is funny to say something sweet to your man while he is on the phone to his work colleagues or he is with his pals but that sweet thing you said to your boyfriend will end up showing him up and could possibly even cause an row.
Besides, it's nicer to wait till a time when you are alone and simply whisper it into his ear... Don't you agree?
How to do it?
If you are having issues working out of nice things to say to your man then here is a way to quickly work out a couple and go from there...
Write down 3 things he has done for you. Things that were just lovely... anything like that. Make sure you start it with you and not he.
Right, now you have finished, then write down how they made you feel inside, how much you appreciated it and what it means to you.
That's it, all you have to do is put them together. Let's look at an example:
You...
1.You stood for 2 hours with me in the pouring torrential rain when we first met, stood for my bus
2.You made a meal for my parents and siblings the first time you met them
3.You make sure you open the door for me, carry my bags and put me first
It makes me...
Feel wonderful
Feel adored
Go all tingly inside
Look forward to being with you
Over the moon I met you
I appreciate it...
More than I realised
Immensely
More than you'll ever know
Put them together...
I loved the way you waited for 2 hours with me in the heavy rain when we first met, waiting for my bus, it made me feel so protected and I am so happy I met you, I appreciate you more than you'll ever know.
So, mix and match and see if it feels good, if it does, you'll know...
Go for it and make today the day you say some kind things to your man!
