Ways To Say “I Love You”

You have been in a relationship for some time, you love your partner, and you want to show it?

Maybe you tell her sometimes “I Love you” but you may feel that after a while this will lose that special charm. If you tell her every day that you love her, it will become routine and will not have any effect on her anymore. After a while, she might think that you just say it and you do not mean it anymore, and she will wonder if you still
care about her.

Therefore, it is better not to tell her so often that you love her, you can show her. Actions speak louder than words. In order to show her your true feelings, you have to make her feel special to you even if you are together for a very long time.

Here are some useful ways to show her your love without saying it. Remember that sometimes you should tell her “I Love you” but make do so during some special moments.

Surprise her every day with something that she does not expect you would do for her. For example, after a night spend together, wake up early and make her coffee so it is ready when she gets up. Treat her to breakfast in bed. This is definitely a good start for a great day.

Give her a soft kiss before you go to work. Show her that even at work you are thinking about her and the time spent together by leaving her messages on her voice mail with a silly, romantic poem.

Make everyday special. Spend quality time with the one you love. Cook her favorite meal, place love notes in her lunch and don’t forget to compliment her sometimes – tell her she looks amazing like in the day you met.

Get off work early and surprise her with a dozen roses and dinner just to show how much you love her. Prepare a special evening with a candle-lit dinner. What can be more wonderful than wine and dine under the romantic glow of a thousand candles?

Give her roses for no reasons at all. Deliver flowers with a special note attached “I Love you”.  However, never forget anniversary and birthday.

In addition, you can offer her a special evening by treating her to a relaxing massage. Rent a romantic movie, or create a romantic atmosphere by dancing  to slow music,  and whisper “I Love you” in her ear.

You don’t have to do something special everyday.  But doing the unexpected once in awhile, you’ll impress her and make her feel good.

For example, spend a night outside under the stars and talk about your first date. On another day prepare a basket and take her on a picnic, or plan a swim for two at the pool, or even a picnic on the beach.

You have many possibilities to show your love for her but do not forget that sometimes it is good to hear those three words “I Love you”.

How to Make Your Partner Laugh – The Basics

Learning and mastering the basics of making your partner laugh is the first step… you can try the tricks that the biggest of pickup artists use, but if you don’t know the foundation behind it, there’s no real point of ever doing much at all.

Relax

Don’t stress yourself out, this isn’t your driving test! You are just trying to put a smile on their face and if you don’t succeed then you have plenty of other chances. The more relaxed you are the better chance you have, so take some deep breaths and then get going!

Getting In the Mindset of Being a Funny Person

Most people don’t consider themselves a funny person, and because of that, they come off as not funny. That’s not a nice thing to come off as to begin with, and feeling like you’re not funny can be even worse.

Getting in the mindset of being funny is hard, though, especially if you’re not used to considering yourself a funny person. But you can be and that’s the first thing you need to start telling yourself……… that you’re a funny person.

It works on the same basis as happiness – if you pretend that you’re happy, you become happier. Get into the mindset that you’re a naturally funny person, and it all flows a lot better.

You will start to find the humor even in the bad things like falling over or burning a hole in your favorite top! And if you can provide humor at times when others would be wallowing in self pity then you can really brighten up people’s days and help them when they need it the most.

Be Comfortable when Cracking Jokes

Awkward times to crack jokes include…

-In the bathroom

-After your first kiss

-With their parents

…You get the idea, right?

If you’re not comfortable with yourself, and your area, when you crack jokes, they’re probably going to come out funny – and not the good funny. Start doing more in an area you’re comfortable with, and branch out from there.

The more comfortable you are, the better your joke will be received. It’s that simple!

Learn When It’s Appropriate

This goes with the above, in some ways. Only certain jokes are appropriate at certain times – you wouldn’t tell a dirty joke at your partner’s sisters wedding, would you? Well, you might, depending on their family. But that’s not the point!

You need to make certain jokes at the right time, so that they’re received at the best way. This includes when they’re in a bad mood. If they don’t feel like laughing, your joke is going to be met on deaf ears, no matter how funny it is.

How to Create ‘A Funny’

You have the basics, right? Well, at least the bones of what you need to be funny, and keep your partner amused. Now, let’s branch off a bit, and go with the next step of basics.

Finding Good Jokes, Stories, and More

A good comedian knows that not all funny jokes are funny when a certain person tells them. You can be the funniest person in the world, but it can sound awkward if you tell even the best of jokes. Some people just aren’t cut out for some jokes.

Telling which jokes are good for you… that’s the hard, but important, part.

Choose jokes, and stories, that you’re most comfortable with. If you blush when you hear someone swearing, a dirty joke certainly isn’t the type of thing that you should be reciting – and if you’re comfortable with even the boldest of topics, maybe you should stick with them.

Figure out your comfort level with jokes, and stories, and learn how to gradually expand that by telling different ones. Never, ever tell a joke that you’re not comfortable with – it will come out bad each and every time.

Finding Good Jokes and Stories

There’s no point in being naturally funny if you don’t have a joke or story to talk about in order to be funny. And finding a good joke isn’t hard, in this day and age, if you know where to look.

The first stop should actually be the internet. See if you can find a website that has quality content in your comfort zone, or a good site with thousands of different joke ideas, and funny situations to capitalize on.

A Google search will turn up more websites that you can possibly handle, and that’s a good thing. You have some great ideas to start with.

Your next stop should be to your bookstore, to check out the humor section. From books on how to be funny, joke books, and books of entertaining stories, you can find just about anything. If it’s a good bookstore, sit in their café area and read your piles of interesting material as you’re sipping a coffee.

Finally, you can pull much of your material from other comedians… and they can be big name ones, too. All you have to do is start with ‘I was watching this one guy on TV…’, and you’ve got a great story that they’ll love.

Comedy Central often has some great material out there, and once a week they have a different comedian on. If you’re looking for someone in particular – like Dane Cook, for example – you can either buy their DVD, or watch it online somewhere. You’re sure to find clips on someplace like ComedyCentral.com, or YouTube.

The more material you are exposed to the more stuff you will have to call on when you need it. You will also become so used to it you pick up how they make things funny which will help you no end.

Popular TV also makes good material, imitating people from TV can be funny, like Homer’s ‘DUH!’. Just make sure that if you do imitate people off TV and famous comedians, because if you just try and rip off someone’s joke and your partner says, ‘Oh yeh so-and-so said that’ then you will feel like a right plonker and it won’t be funny at all (not to mention you look like you can’t come up with stuff yourself).

Find your own style

Again, we are different, we have different personalities and different ways of thinking. As you try different things you will find your true style in the end.

Don’t get caught up in trying to ‘be like’ someone, if that is not your style you will just be awkward and never get really good at anything funny, pay attention to what you enjoy or what you are good at.

General tips

Smiling is powerful and infectious, smile as you say your jokes so that if they are a bit obscure people know you are joking as you say it, and also to make them smile as they listen and then they are much more likely to laugh!

Be animated and enthusiastic about the joke (unless you are doing deadpan sarcastic humor… then don’t!)

Make sure you don’t rush it, I used to do this all the time, trying to rush through the joke to avoid taking too long, and then ruining the whole effect… take your time and enjoy the process.

Don’t ever, ever laugh before the punch line! It ruins the build up!

If all else fails… poke fun at yourself!

Sometimes the person you are with just doesn’t want to laugh, or maybe they are feeling bad because of something or worried and you don’t want to say anything that might upset them.

In those instances go for the old fall back of poking fun at yourself!

It get’s people’s guard down, I mean if you poked fun at someone else in the room they could say you were being nasty, include them in a joke and you could be being inconsiderate or just wind them up more. But poke fun at yourself and how can they be upset with that?

Either recount and embarrassing story from your childhood etc (we all have some!) or maybe tell them about funny things that have happened in the past month or so. How about making something up that is so obscure they will laugh at the very thought or it?

Like saying you couldn’t tie your laces till you were 10 until your parents were sick and tired of it and made you tie together everyone’s spaghetti when you were having Spaghetti Bolognese and then you learned it…

Say it with a straight face and wait for them to start with a, ‘Really?’ or a, ‘You’re having me on!’ until you let on you are joking!

Overall…

I’m recommending that you start with jokes, because they’re the easiest way to ease into being funny. If you start with jokes, you can make more jokes off the cuff in a funny situation – and you become even funnier as you become more comfortable.

Remember the very basics – like ‘be comfortable’ – and don’t be afraid to take some chances with your jokes. Never be discouraged if they don’t find it funny at first, because there’s always another time to make them laugh.

Laughter is like music – it’s beautiful. Especially when it comes from someone you love.

If you think all this sounds like hard work then remember, everyone wants someone who has a ’sense of humor’ so it is a big turn on and ice breaker when you can be funny.

How To Improve Your Relationship

Is there magic to what makes some relationships last longer than others? Maybe. Do some people just sit back and sulk, while others seem to let life go by right over their heads and problems? It sure seems so. Or maybe it’s just that some people learn secrets of success from their grandparents or other relatives or friends. And since the latter is probably more accurate, here are some tried and true tips from people who have enjoyed long, happy relationships.

1. REFRESH – Take time to look back, refresh your memories and share what brought you together. Especially when times are difficult, lean back and rely on these old memories as your foundation and glue yourselves back together with them (not literally, of course!)

2. DATES – Keep dating each other. Even if life seems too busy, meet at the end of the evening for something light and easy, like viewing your favorite sitcom (record it if necessary) together.

3. FUN – Couple tend to have fun on dates, then get married and become too serious. Lighten up. Head out to amusement parks or skating rinks, but relive the fun you had at the beginning.

4. FORGET – No need to “always” remember the bad things that happened during an argument. Actively “forget” sometimes. Be the first to apologize and make up. Go for it!

5. SPACE – Give each other some space. Either you trust or you don’t. Get on with life, though. People need time alone and time with their mates and other friends. Be sure to give and take your fair share of space.

6. DISAGREE – Agree that it’s okay to disagree on some issues, and leave it at that. No need to create a new religion or political movement just to appease both of you. You don’t HAVE to agree on everything. And you won’t. And that’s okay.

7. MEMORIES – Make some together. Enjoy special moments, special anniversary dates and events. No need to be elaborate. For example, maybe you enjoyed watching a hot air balloon race one spring day. The next year, you might schedule time to watch it again. Make it an annual event. Collect postcards with balloons on them, playing cards, toss pillows…over time it becomes a theme.

So don’t just sit back and sulk. Take short steps to improve your relationships and let life’s problems magically pass by while you hold on to your relationship.

Improving relationships require knowing what to do and how to do it. If you follow some tried and true tips, it is possible you can also improve your relationship.
