I read this article about the 12 phrases that women want to hear from their men.
And I completely agree!
I think this goes further though.
All of our meaningful close, personal relationship should get the gift of hearing these from you.
Okay, some might be more for your spouse or significant other.
But if you really think about them, most should be said to others you are close to as well.
The words we use make a world of difference.
These simple expressions of affection and affirmation play a crucial role in strengthening our emotion connection with those we care so deeply about.
So here you go for the 12 for you to say and how they will receive it when you feel it, mean it, and are sincere about it when you say it
Here you go!
1. “You’re Incredibly Strong and Capable.” (boosts confidence)
2. “I Love Spending Time With You.” (show you prioritize their presence)
3. “I’m Here for You, No Matter What.” (the comfort of unwavering support)
4. “You Make a Positive Impact on My Life.” (boosts self-esteem and shows you know it)
