1. Tell him you love him – Even though you show him through your actions, don’t think for a second that he doesn’t like hearing it as well. Sometimes these three simple words can make up for a lot.
2. Be affectionate – A kiss on the cheek, a hug or even a playful pinch on the butt reminds him that you care for him and desire him. It doesn’t always have to be about sex, although don’t be surprised if he gets a little turned on!
3. Show him how much you appreciate him – Every man loves to feel like the “ultimate dude” in the eyes of the opposite sex. Tell him how proud you are to be with him; compliment him, make him feel like the only man that matters!
4. Encourage him to reach for the stars but ultimately accept him for who he is. Nothing kills a relationship more than placing unrealistic expectations on your partner. Each of us has faults and we must love each other, faults and all.
5. Make time to be alone with each other. Intimacy must continually be nurtured if it is to remain alive. Establish regular date nights, which can even be alone at home with a movie and snacks. The key is to continue to re-connect with one another.
