Chapter 18: How to Express Your Feelings to the One You Love

Love is not about giving or receiving gifts but about sharing each other’s feelings and letting each other know how much you really care. You need to be romantic, creative, and unique. The best way to show someone you really care is by words and how your actions make them feel special. You need to say something coming from the heart and show them from your soul. Love them for who they are and not for who you are.


Steps:

1. Think about all the great moments that you have shared with that person for inspiration. If you think you won't remember, write it down or even better, make it into a poem.
2. Try to think of words that can describe what your feelings towards him/her are. The happiness you feel when you are around him/her and the necessity you have to being with him/her.
3. Find a place where you'll be comfortable and alone.
4. Tell them how much you want to be with them. They will appreciate that you are showing them your love and not just saying it.
5. Spend as much time with them as you can. If you love some one, you should prefer always to see him/her all the time.
6. If you feel they have something to say, do not ignore them.
7. Finally, just say it. Don't try to think of the perfect time to say it because sometimes it will never come out, if you become too nervous. If you didn't prepare anything to say, just speak your heart out.

Tips:

• Do not stress about it. They are your feelings; you just need to learn how to express them.
• You don't need to be at a fancy place to tell him/her your feelings. Just pick somewhere where you could be alone.
• If you want to be romantic, go somewhere special. For example; you can go where you both met, where you first kissed each other or just somewhere with a nice view or a place that is special to both of you.
• Don't forget to say "I love you," if you do and if you really mean it, say it a lot because that person will never get tired of hearing it.
• Express your love as often as you are able to.
• Don't break off eye contact while expressing your love.
• You could always write your feelings in a letter that expresses how you feel and give it to them.
• Always just let it flow out or you will never get that feeling out of you!

Warnings:

• To truly love is to give, give and give and expect nothing in return. This makes it a very special relationship when both think this way.
• Do not be afraid to give and show your love, understand and respect each other's feelings and emotions. Remember our hearts are fragile and feel everything.
• Don't end it if they don't say it back. Nothing says both parties fall in love at the same time, continue to love them and when it's right for them, they'll say it back.
• Tell them how much you want to be with them and spend as much time with them as you can. They will appreciate that you are showing them your love and not just saying it.
• If the girl/guy does not love you back, there is a chance she/he will freak out. Proceed cautiously and slowly
