How to Express Love to Othersthumbnail
Try these helpful tips to start expressing your love to others today!

1.Verbalize your feelings. Give compliments, let them know how important they are to you, make them feel important and special through words of encouragement, and of course, say "I love you".

2
Give gifts. Some people feel very loved whenever they receive a gift and this can be a great way to express your love because it takes time and thought and lets them know that you take the time to figure out what they like. The gifts do not have to be expensive. Try giving a coffee mug to your dad, a bean bag to a kid, some flowers to your wife, or some chocolate to your husband.

3
Give the gift of touch. Some people go for years without being touched once by another human being. Try giving a friend a hug when they seem down or make it a rule to hug your family when you see them.

4
Give the gift of time. This only works if you spend time with your attention focused on your loved one. Try going out to lunch and asking them what is going on in their life. Or go sledding or walking together. Just make sure they know that you love them enough to pay attention to them without getting distracted.

5
Show your love through acts of service. Next time your sister is stressed, offer to help her with something, or take care of the kids for your wife. Easing the burden for others is a great way to show that you appreciate all that they do and you love them enough to make life a little easier for them.
