Honestly, I would like to be much more affectionate and a lot of times I have to sit back and deny those urges because I don't feel that there is equal reciprocation in the emotional department. It's difficult to be affectionate towards someone that puts all their energy into shutting you out.


Due to long distance, I greet him via msn every morning so he knows I think of him


I kiss her. I will send her quotes of love throughout the day to try and express how I feel. I tell her I love her.


I compliment him, tell him how much I appreciate him, hold his hand, snuggle, and try to do things I know he enjoys.


By giving my lady lots of cuddles and kisses telling her how much I love her xxx


Spending quality time (usually doing things I don't like or that are boring to me) or by doing something nice/helpful. But when I do, the person usually doesn't recognize what I'm doing so I probably need to try to do something else.


Showing it.


Naturally, I get touchy... because that's my language. But thoughtfully, I try to do things for her, because I know that's HER language.


Many ways.......


It is much easier to do so in person, however I have an amazing gf who is long distance right now. so I try to show her the best I can. I really want her to feel my love. that is very important to me. of course I want to be loved too, however she has shown me over and over again that she does love me. I hope she feels mine like I feel hers. but when I do see her in person I like to hold her make her feel my love and gentle kisses. time is precious when you don't have much time, but the memories


You tell them that they are the only person that can be your lover. You do stuff stuff for them that they didn't ask for, but you knew that they wanted. Do stuff with them even if you don't enjoy it yourself ( take an interest in what they like ). Lastly, always tell them that you love them ( but don't just say " I love you " put more thought into it when you say it! ).


Im not the affectionate type a person, but I have learned overtime that my bf really likes being shown affection... He just soaks it up lol. Soo show him affection by touch and kisses, I praise him when he's being praiseworthy


I'm a lot more affectionate than my spouse !


I am not very lovey dovey. I do always tell people important to me that I love them. I look after them.


Words of affirmation to her when it's long distance. I try to get some quality time in too, cause I know she is so important to me and I want time for just her and I. No interruptions, complete focus on her. She deserves it, she is so amazing, and I'm thankful how good she is to me. Especially how loyal
