20 Things That Men Love to Hear From Women

All that your partner needs from you is not the customary, “I love you”. Honestly, they need much more than that:

1. When you ask them for help, they feel like they are needed and it makes them happier in the relationship.

2. When you appreciate them for something good they have done, they get a childlike delight out of it. Don’t forget to acknowledge his input in the relationship, and he’d be more than happy to contribute more.

3. When you tell or show how happy you are being with them, it makes their day.

4. When you tell them that they are perfect for you, it helps them fight the insecurities and inhibitions they have to go through.

5. When you show your respect towards them and their methods, you are strengthening the bond of your relationship.

6. Let them know when something is that urgent. They are afraid of turning you down but they also might be taking on too much.
