Whether youve been married for years or freshly swiped right on each other, romance is always the answer.
Just like you want to feel appreciated and wanted, so does your partner.
Gestures go a long way, but for some people, words mean a lot more.
George Coletrain
And you dont need to be Shakespeare or write poetic love letters to do this.
This phrase is a lot better than thank you.
While giving thanks has its time and place, I appreciate you feels much more personal.
Showing appreciation lets your partner know that everything they do for you isnt going unnoticed.
Sometimes, all anyone needs is a little appreciation.
Let me be clear here: Im not saying to throw around apologies.
But sometimes people get a little too high on our horses.
All too often, I hear about couples arguing like theyre on opposing teams.
And if thats the case, then theres no need to yell or fight.
Remind your partner youre on their team.
Youre not against them; youre in this with them.
Can you explain ___ to me?
People talk about their problems or interests in a way that other people cant understand.
Its hard to realize when youre talking about something so close to you.
So instead of pretending like you understand, ask your partner to explain things to you.
Heres a glass of water.
It seems like a small phrase, but the implications behind it are far more.
I dont know what to do.
In an argument, people usually jump to trying to fix things or shut off completely.
This is why it baffles me that more people dont simply say, I dont know what to do.
Because thats usually the case.
If you find yourself in an argument, try saying this to your partner.
Tensions will ease, and perhaps you’re able to come to a solution together.
Your partner comes home and relays to you how shitty their boss treated them.
What do you do?
attempt to tell them how to fix it?
Or tell your partner to let it go?
Both are actually unhelpful.
Most of the time, people just want to be heard.
Is there anything I can do for you?
If you want to let your partner know you want to help, this phrase will do just that.
Chances are, you dont know what will help them at that moment.
Youre my best friend.
Only say this phrase if you actually feel this way.
Often, romance is focused so much on the love aspect.
But the friendship part of a relationship is just as important.
Women want to know they mean something to you to the extent that you enjoy hanging out with them.
I saw this and thought of you.
Its one thing to get someone flowers.
Its another to be out and about and see something that reminds you of your partner.
If that ever happens, I suggest taking a photo or buying the thing.
Your partner will be so happy, even if its the silliest gift or sign you saw.
The simple idea that you were thinking of them throughout your day is great to know.
Just thinking of you.
Compliments that arent focused on her physical appearance are going to go a long way.
Have the last slice of pizza.
And of course, the ultimate romantic phrase is giving away the last cheesy slice of pizza.
We know you want it.
But the fact that youre willing to give it up is the ultimate sacrifice.
Whats more romantic than that?
Remember, romance is always something to keep up in a relationship.
Everyone wants to feel special.
