1. If you have children, one thing I am sure you are aware of is even as they grow older, and are no longer babies, it seems like someone is up at all hours of the night, and Mom is the one who gets up with the child. Tell your wife you love her by letting her sleep in the next morning. Cal in to work, let them know you will be coming in an hour later, and let her sleep. Take over her responsibilities for just one morning. That will tell her you love her.
2. Though it is tried and true, you really can't go wrong with flowers. However, flowers for special occasions are almost expected, and like beating a dead horse. Unexpected flowers, just because, say I love you better than almost anything else. Don't use them to make up for fights, use them as a gesture of love, just because.
3. Most husband's are not very good at being verbose, and expressing their love in words, so how shocked and amazed would she be if you wrote a little poem about your love for her? You can even get help online and use templates. Not into poetry? Make a list of things you love and appreciate about her. She will cherish it.
4. Tell your wife you love her by simply wrapping her in a big bear hug first thing when you get home and simply saying, "I am so happy to see you, I love you!" That will make her feel important, like you missed her, and that she is the number one thing in your life." (Do this before you kick off your shoes, turn on the television, etc.)
5. You know it is often the cheesy things you do that make her feel the best. It is those "embarrassing" gestures that she wants to brag to her friends about. For example, you could leave a sticky note on the mirror telling her how much you like her ____________ (fill in with anything, cooking, butt, breasts, smile, voice, you choose).
6. Initiate conversations. It seems like for many women when their husband gets home from work he needs some wind down time, whether that is with the TV, a book, the paper, whatever. However, often times that wind down time never really ends, and the whole evening is spent with little or no (or at least not meaningful conversation). You can tell and show your wife you love her, by turning off the television and asking her how her day was. Ask her about ambitions, dreams, desires, fantasies, ask her anything, but start a real conversation.
7. One of the best ways to tell your wife you love her is to simply remember to tell her she looks nice when she gets ready, compliment her clothes, hair style, make-up. Show that you notice her, and like what you see. Don't just eat dinner, and assume she knows you like it because you cleaned your plate, rave about it! Tell her she cooks so well she should open a restaurant. It is not a lie, it is love! Love is all about making people feel good about themselves, appreciated and needed. Saying, "I don't know what I would do without you?" when she helps you out is so much better than "Thank you!" So the small things!
When you want to tell your wife you love her and words aren't enough, show her with your compliments, your appreciation, your attention to detail, and your concern for her needs, dreams, day, and life.
