Well me and my boyfriend have been
together for about 6 months. He is my
first real relationship and well guys I
have been with previously have been
nothing but me being used
sexually....Anyway lately he feels as if
im not showing enough love towards him ...
And we had a talk aout it and we worked
some stuff out... He is the kind of guy
who likes the mushy part of a
relationship....And im used to giving guys
sex as a way of saying I care.....Now I
dont know really what else I can do to
make him feel special....I dont have alot
of money but what could I do??? To show
him I love him?? Any suggestions thanks !

Some Ideas. . . Posted: 03-02-06 16:14pm
You don't need money.Do little things like
this:
-just out of the blue walk up to him and
kiss him.
-cuddle with him.
-i don't know if you live with him but in
the morning b4 my bf leaves he gives me a
kiss and says I love you.
-tell him to have a good day when you
leave each other/ask him how his day was.
. .
-when he has a bad day buy him a mushy
card and leave it somewhere he will find
it.
-cook for him
-give him a surprise call during the day
basically just be creative.You don't have
to show someone you love them by buying
them things,just let them know you care!
If I think of anything else I will tell
you!

I totally agree, you don`t need money to
show you love someone. I think your past
has just shown you the bad side of
relationships they aren`t all about sex.
Once you think of one thing to do the
ideas will start to flow. A few of the
following might help:
* write a little note saying you love him
and hide it somewhere you know he will
find it, he`ll love it if he loves
romance!
* before you kiss, look into his eyes kiss
gently and touch his face when you do so,
its a very romantic gesture.
* make him a meal, write I love you with
his vegetables!
* let him catch you have a long lingering
look at him, if he asks why your looking
say something nice " i`m so lucky to have
you" etc
* get a little box, wrap it in pretty
paper, write all the things you love about
him and he can cherish it forever.
* collect some photos and make a little
collage or put it in a little album and
decorate the front yourself.
Anything at all that you have put thought
into or given a personal touch he will
love. They are the most precious things
moreso than expensive gifts. I received a
box one day from my bf and I had thrown
out the roses he had given me for
valentines day but unknown to me he had
collected the roses and let them dry out.
He then got a little box and wrapped it in
paper, he put all the dried roses in them
and wrote a little message inside. I will
never forget how sweet that was and it
didn`t cost a thing!

Hey pinksalter,i like some of your
ideas!They are really cute,but my bf is
not a romantic,he is like an egg,soft on
the inside but hard as hell on the
outside.I know he appreciates the things I
do for him.

On my last business trip, my wife slipped
a card in my laptop case, which I didn't
receive until I checked in to the hotel
and unpacked. The card had a dog on it
that read "no you, no fun" and on the
inside "no duh". Those little things that
she does are far better than sex.
