Simple Love Advice

Love. How to give it, how to receive it? We never were really taught much about this, so often we can feel like we aren't getting or receiving enough love in our lives.

For example, most of us relate to true love like it is an emotion. A private inner feeling. And sometimes it is an inner feeling that we feel the need to protect or hide from the object of our love. Like it we express it we are vulnerable and we might get rejected or it might not be fully reciprocated.

However, what if you related to love like a beacon or lighthouse? A light or radiance to be shined and spread as often as you could? Something to be given fully rather than held inside? An emotion best turned into as many loving acts as possible?

What you may find is that love expressed and given freely is replenished easily. It is not something that needs to be kept inside and kept safe. When you feel true love, give it away, express it, act on it, and don’t be attached to what you get back.

So this article is to encourage you to turn love into action as often as possible. Express it. Give it away. Show your true love. It needs to be shouted from the rooftops rather than kept safe in the basement.

What are some of the actions that can express true love? There are so many. Listening to your mate like your life depends on it. Giving the gift of truly listening to another is a definite expression of deep love. Turning off our own thoughts and focusing deeply on what another thinks and says is a generous, unselfish act that makes the other person feel important and nurtured.

Another expression of true love is simply direct eye contact with the object of our affection. Looking them right in the eye, drinking them in while they or we are talking. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and direct connection is powerful. Studies show that direct eye contact tends to fade over time in relationships. Keep it alive!

And then of course a powerful expression of true love is touch. Not just sexual touch, but outside the bedroom. Just brushing their arm, giving hugs, these are direct expressions of affection that touch the heart easily.

Love Advice Actionable Steps:

1. Start making your partner feel heard and understood regularly!

2. Make more direct eye contact!

3. Touch them often!

There are entire books that can be written about each of these topics, so this is obviously just an introduction, but these ideas are a great place to start to improve your love relationship and the experience of intimacy for both of you. Some good love advice is to start loving! Don't wait for the perfect time. Love your mate some each day. Find something to appreciate for just a few minutes a day.
