Say I Love You More

Over the years, 27+ years of marriage plus a year of dating and a year of engagement, we have said, I Love You, thousands upon thousands of times. At the start of the day. At the end of the day. After something really good happened. In the midst of something bad happening. Saying, I love you, is one of the most comforting and reassuring ways to remind your spouse of how you feel. But for all the times we have said those three words to each other, we are learning, that it’s just not enough. We need to say, I love you, MORE!

​It’s true, we say these words, a lot. But sometimes we need to hear these words more. The problems come when we find ourselves becoming too complacent or comfortable and we forget to say, I love you.

So with Valentine’s Day coming, this is a perfect time to remind ourselves to say, I love you. We have a few thoughts for why you should say, I love you, more.

​It Feels Good.
It’s Comforting and Reassuring. 
It Unites You.
It Fuels Your Soul.
It Fills Your Love Tank.
It Sparks the Romantic Fire.
It Strengthens Through Tough Times.
It Makes the Good Times Better.
It Makes the Really Good Times Great.
It Forgives.
It Shows Grace.
It Helps You Look Forward to the What’s Next.

For most of us, we could do better at saying, I love you, more often. We know we don’t say it enough, and should definitely say it more.

​As we kick off this new week, let’s do better together, and try saying, I love you, to your spouse a little more. Here are a few ideas to try.

\

Say I love you when you first wake up.
Say I love you as you leave the house for the day.
Leave an, I love you, note someplace your spouse will find it.
Send a text message half way through the day that say’s, I love you.
Say, I love you, as soon as you get home after work.
Say, I love you, as you go to bed.

It might sound simple, or like a no brainer, but think about it, how often do you say, I love you? Try it this week. Say, I love you as suggested above, and see if it changes anything about your relationship. We think it will.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
