“THEY KNOW I LOVE THEM!”
You’ve heard this before haven’t you.
Maybe you’ve been told something to this effect: “You know I love you, I don’t need to tell you”.
Don’t take people for granted.
If you’re not “telling” them how you feel, do NOT assume they know it.
But there are other ways to “show” them so they aren’t assuming how you feel.
When someone asks me “how do you show someone you love, that you love them”, here’s what I tell them.
Listening when you are speaking
Offering my help when you need it
Value all the wonderful things you do
Encouraging you when times are tough
These thoughts must come from your heart & you must mean them. If you don’t, then don’t bother.
Genuine action of showing how you feel are easy to detect. But if you’re faking it, that shows also, but more like a red light alarm!
People have talked about this subject of expression for many, many years, decades & centuries.
The best thought for me to share, is the one I’ve written above.
After they’ve heard it, the questions start coming:
They ask; “how do you remember those things?”
I then ask them to write down what I said above, & I’d repeat for them.
Okay & they ask how to remember it.
Well, first of all you of course have to feel & believe it.
If they do, the rest is easy.
I tell them to look at the first letter of each sentence.
That’s how you remember what to say…
L O V E
Listening, Offering, Valuing, Encouraging.
Use your own words / thoughts as you want, just be sure you truly mean them.
“Falling in love is not a choice. To stay in love is”….
See you tomorrow..

I honestly have been through this myself. I was in a tragic accident last year & lost my job / income, my health & mobility. I was devastated, the bills never stopped coming in & I was drowning in debt. Sound somewhat familiar?

My six year old says that I tell him I love him too much….. but my wife doesn’t complain. lol I think being genuine is, as you say, so important!! Don’t say anything to people if you are lying, because they will know!
Oh very wise words Shaun. Your 6 year old will become a very affectionate man & will appreciate where that came from, one day. Speaking false words will always come back to haunt those who are not wise & try it. Thank you Shaun.
It’s so easy to assume that people know we love them … but daily actions speak louder than words. But words are nice too 🙂
Erica you are so right. Never assume anything, because we all have different perceptions. Words & actions together are the best combination. Thank you Erica.
I agree Linda we cannot assume people know we love them. I knoiw my husband loves me but there is not a day goes by that he does not tell me. I do the same. I also agree with Erica daily actions speak heaps but the words are good too. Thanks for a great message.
Thank you Sue, you are so wise to do both & do them daily. THAT is true love, to express & show it everyday.
I tell people how much I care all the time – Never assume great blog Linda..
Thanks Helen.
I have to admit I didn’t really catch the first letter of each sentence. That’s awesome! Never assume!
Ahhh, you went through it a bit fast the first time. No worries Beth, I’m glad you figured it out.
Thank you Beth for your honesty. I’m glad you came back & figured it out. Got you didn’t I?! Thanks for sharing Beth.
