So, what sort of "little stuff" do you do to show you love someone?

I tend to do a lot of little things. With women I love, I start having the spontaneous urge to call them little pet names, and I tend to be very touch oriented. I like to always be touching her, caressing her, near her. I like to do things that are unexpected, just to see her smile. I will position myself to make sure that when we're walking down the street, I am the one who will be hit if a car comes off the road, instead of her. More often than otherwise, I let her choose instead of choosing myself. I will spend inordinate amounts of time giving her massages.

There's more, but that's enough examples. What do YOU do?
 
Examples

I cook.
I photograph.
I make stuff for him/her.
I brush hair and paint toenails.
I give manicures.
I write poetry.

I do what I can, daily. :)
 
I had forgotten the pleasure of brushing a woman's hair... it has been so long since I could do that... such a beautiful, romantic way to share time... I had a redhead once who loved it, and I was very happy to do it for her. *sigh* It has been years.

I hope you find someone very special very soon.......Do you know anyone like yourself (older) in Seattle? :kiss:

Washing her hair would cause major melting, as well. :)

That is one I have never had the chance to do, and for some reason it never crossed my mind... I will have to try that next time I have the chance. :)

Hmmm... I am suspecting I might... :) Care to elaborate? lol
 
Random little gifts, unexpected visits at work, a dozen roses for no particular reason, having my hair brushed ever so gently, just knowing you can talk at any time of the day or night whenever you need to, lots of hugs and kisses, wonderful massages to relieve the knots in my back....

Ah yes... this is the life.....
 
I do lots of things for my guy.

But most importantly.... I just like to look at him and tell him what a sexy man I fell in love with. I always make sure to tell him every day that I love him.
I do not want one single day to pass by without him knowing and hearing that from my lips.
 
I'm a snuggly person, I give frequent hugs and kisses. I always ask how their day went, if they're feeling ok.

I shower with attention, I tell them how sexy and cute they are. I resort to names such as sweetie and cutie. (Not sure why, LoL)

I'll usually end up being the one to go to the store at four am for cough drops, or to Wendy's at midnight.

In short; I baby, I pamper, I show them respect.
 
I like the light touches, and holding hands in public and picking out movies that i like and flowers, i LOVE flowers!
 
Whew... all the little things wear me out...

Sometimes it's a hug, kiss on the cheek, tell them how pretty they are, maybe calling them up for a surprise dinner, bringing homes flowers, a card or trinket out of the blue, making them a cup of coffee, the back scratching or massage, rubbing the temples when she has a headache, covering her in a blanket, washing her hair and brushing it, sharing poetry or anything she might enjoy. It doesn't matter who the person is, I just feel good for being able to do the little things for them.
 
Hmmmmm...

Buy a book for him that I'd think he'd like....while I'm at the bookstore for myself.

I'll draw the bath, light the candles, pour the wine, and start the music.

Make a point of finding out when a favorite band of his is playing close by....and pick up tickets.

Give him a full body massage....just cuz.

Make chocolate chip cookies.

Wear his favorite dress when we go out....even though I don't care for how it looks on me.

Tell him that I don't see any grey hairs.

:heart:

Well, it seems like you know a lot of the things that make for a successful relationship. Do you have any older available male friends in Seattle that know how to treat a lady and are maybe looking for someone special?

Is that helpful?
Thanks.........let me know...........:kiss:

* write little notes to him

* fly to where he is at out of town & spend time with him.

* go with him to his favorite resturant even though I don't like the kind of food they serve there... :)

* spoil him ... with words of love.... tell him how he makes me feel , tell him how much I miss him ... :heart:

* completely give myself to him ... in every aspect.

* tolerate his " music" ... :rolleyes:

* be there for him when ever he needs me ...


But of course I just don't do these things for just anyone .... there is only one man... and he is one of a kind.:heart:

Of those people I know, none understand a woman as well as I do. None of the males, anyway. And, unfortunately, the only people I ever knew in Washington State were my uncle and aunt and their two sons, none of whom would befit you, and all of whom who have moved to Florida.

So, I am afraid I must say that I do not. :(

Then I guess I will have to be content hoping to attract someone as understanding of women as you are. I'll go one better......sending fabulous energy your way to make sure your life is everything you would like it to be. Keep up the good work, maybe other men will learn by your example.........:rose:
 
I write her notes.
Send her flowers, they don't have to be expensive, just something that she likes.
I love to just hold her in my arms and just lay there.
Give her massages.
I just do anything that will bring a smile to her face.:)

Thank you. To lead by example is the most passive form of teaching, though, one many do not even notice.
