Having my fiancé look into my eyes and hold me tight and say everything will be okay! <3
Whenever I have hard times and need someone's support, he always feels it somehow. From the look at my eyes he reads my thoughts and sees there's something wrong. Even when I say it's okay, he somehow knows it's not
A really tight hug
Speaking to him and letting him know how I feel
I either get really upset and pour out my feelings or am sad/distant and eventually start crying then we talk as he cuddles with me
Tell him
I'm not sure, I think I feel too stupid asking for encouragement. Maybe i should ask so he knows? But he is always good and positive an encouraging me in lots of different ways anyway :)
I don't know how she does it, but she always seems to know; or I'll just say "babe" and have her complete attention.
He encourages me constantly! No need to ask
I ask for it directly.
A hug...
Hey there partner. I need encouragement. I feel really low.
That's a good question. She's always receptive when I need to talk about things
I don't know...but if I need it he is good about giving it I am just not good at talking about feelings.
I act really cute and tiny and talk about cutesy stuff.
