Sorry, title should probably have been "how do you really show someone....."

 

Yes, of course you can tell them, but in my last relationship I don't think I did a great job of actually showing and expressing to her. She did have these expectations she kept inside that I wasn't apparently always meeting. I hadn't been in a relationship in a very long time and was very rusty and only now I can look back see missed opportunities.

 

I wanted to hear some examples, from an outside perspective, of things that you might do for someone that you really loved. Some things that during the early part of the relationship (first 2-4 months) that would let any person know that "hey, this gut really does love me". He doesn't need to say it, he is showing it. I'm also not talking about things that involve spending a lot of money or trying to win someone over that way. I don't believe that spending a lot of money is a way to show someone that you love them.

 

Looking forward to hearing some great examples, both simplistic and maybe a little over the top.

Ok, well I'll throw one thing out that I did and I would think this would have told her something (she was 40+ previously married).

 

She was working full time and going to school online and she was working on a project so I would talk to her about it and show interest and even went online myself to look into the subject matter so I could really try and help her with it. I let her know that what she was doing was a big deal to me and that she had my full support.
