4 Easy Ways to Make Your Man Feel Loved

Jump up and greet him warmly when he gets home. I know, you've had a long day and you're finally stretched out on the couch watching Law and Order when you hear your man arriving home. Resist the urge to send out a muffled "hi honey" from underneath the throw - instead get up to meet him at the door with a smile and a kiss. He'll feel like he's #1 in your world! Turning your full attention to him also helps the two of you re-connect after a day apart, and sets the stage for a great evening together.

Fix his favorite yummy homemade breakfast.There's some truth to the old saying "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach"! Try this on a weekend morning when neither of you feels too rushed. Fix waffles, eggs & bacon, or whatever your man loves best - then sit down next to him and take your time eating together and talking. He'll love it that you made the effort to prepare a special meal for him. He's so lucky to be with a domestic queen like you!

Plan a night out and take him to a movie you know he'd enjoy. You get extra points if he knows it's not one you'd normally pick (note: it's totally okay to close your eyes during the violent parts.) It's a great boost for a man's ego to walk into a guy movie with you by his side. If you keep an upbeat demeanor and just enjoy the fact that you're giving your man a truly enjoyable night out, he'll feel like the luckiest man alive.

Express appreciation. I'm sure you thank your man on those occasions when he does something that strikes you as particularly thoughtful and sweet - but you can make him feel loved any day by simply noticing the small kindnesses that often go overlooked. If your man opens the door for you, takes the trash out, opens a tight lid, or fixes the drain, take the opportunity to let him know you appreciate him. A warm smile and a quick word of thanks will remind him that he's admired and valued just for who he is. Who wouldn't love that?
