Love in many ways

Monday, February 13, 2012

BEING loved and loving someone is such a very nice feeling. This may come in handy, wherein love for your family (parental), siblings, relatives, love for friends, and most especially, love for our so-called ‘soulmate’.

One way of expressing our love to someone, aside from the material things given, is saying the word “I Love You.” But don’t you know that this can be expressed in many ways?

Have something to report? Tell us in text, photos or videos.

As they say, actions speak louder than words. Here are some of the best ways to say “I Love You” effortlessly:

1. Give her a soft kiss. This may sound very easy and common but it’s like the sweetest thing in the world that makes every girl shivery and fuzzy (in a positive manner) when in love or infatuated.

2. Have flowers delivered with a note attached saying ‘I Love You’. Well, it’s obvious that every girl (especially me) likes to received flowers from our partners that simply makes us smile, fuzzy and happy all day long.

3. Listen to his/her words. Through listening to your partners, every word would make your partner feel very special in every way.

4. Make a list of everything you love about them no matter how stupid it is. Knowing how your partner gives importance to you not only to your physical looks but also to your being as a whole is a very ‘kilig’ thing.

5. Give surprising hugs and kisses in unexpected places. Simply express your love anywhere and anytime. Giving your partner an unexpected kiss and hug is much sweeter.

6. Cook them their favorite food. Well, as they say, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, so have your partner taste one of your delicious delicacies that would make them more in love with you!

7. If living in distance place, call or video call her always. This will lessen the missing feeling and makes the love stronger.

8. Rub your partner’s nose and simply pinched it softly. A very cute gesture that surely makes heart pumps rapidly.

9. Write a sweet love letter expressing your love. Although very time-consuming, letters are the oldest fashion way of letting your love ones know how much you care for them.

10. Lastly, look into his/her eye, hold your partner’s hands and then silently whisper I love you in his/her ear. Simple yet very memorable.

Well, saying I love you is not just a silly crap that you can throw to anyone at anytime you want. It’s rather a form of commitment to someone that you want to be with your life. It’s something that makes a person inspired, happy and feels young.

Since today is Valentine’s Day, these ways may come in handy. And saying I love you is probably the sweetest words a human can say. However, it requires a lot of courage and determination to say these three words. But the most important element in saying these words is the true heart that speaks out only for the true feeling.

Stay in love and be loved. If saying it in many ways matters, then do it and you’ll surely feel delighted. (Christine Marie Doliente/Lourdes College Intern)
