holding hands, kissing, hugging is a great way to show affection - everyone needs a hug sometime
With us it's a huge mixture of things. We hold hands. We give cute little kisses. We're very close. So we can treat each other like crap but its how we get along. We call each other names but it's how we love each other. (:
I do a lot of small things for him. He rarely notices them but i know I do them. I tell hm I love him and miss him all the time!
I am not the greatest communicator but i try all avenues and i am open to new ways of showing affection
Telling him and licking him ALL over during sex
Hugs kisses hand holding and juss being in her presence is alot
Being around her & telling her how much I live her talk & lay down watch movies but I try & spend as much time as I can
Learn Melanie's love language and speak it fluently and often.
Touching, kissing, holding hands, hugging, rubbing the back of his head and neck, and falling asleep on his chest

In many ways
We punch each other.
I've closed myself off from that on accident. More guarded then I used to be probably
While I do have touchy moments. I express most of my affection by doing little things that I know he appreciates. Picking up his dry cleaning, straightening the house, etc. he works hard and I like to think if things are in order when he gets gets home it makes him feel good. Then he can pay attention to his family instead of the tedious day to day activities.
It's a lot of talking and making him feel cared for and looked after and loved :). We're going into a long-distance relationship, so I'm trying to find ways of being affectionate while away.
There are many ways of doing this
Don't think I ever got it right, if I did at all...
