These are the 2 words most often used, abused in a relationship prior to nuptials. One thing most couples bank on is the feeling of euphoria to keep them going even through the darkest periods.
However I find that the formula is simple yet difficult at the same time, words are but words and if not backed by actions – they are nothing but lip service. Show your other half how you feel by small little acts of affection, vary it in the bedroom and out of it. Surprise them, dont let them expect it on a regular cycle e.g. birthdays and anniversaries.
A story to illustrate this point, many years ago I helped a friend source a diamond for his 10 year anniversary. When his wife received it, her first response was – are you dying? She was so unaccustomed to his act that she thought immediately of the worst. The bright side is she trusts him, I know of other wives that would say – are you cheating on me?
The thing I love about Velia is her heart, she has kindness unmatched by anyone else I’ve ever met. Her love is the kind you feel every single day, doesnt need words but I know undoubtedly that she literally loves me unconditionally. I am grateful, and I look forward to sharing the rest of my life with this very cheeky monkey (lao gao).
