Everyone gives and receives love differently. This philosophy is the basis behind the <\/span>Five Love Languages<\/span><\/a> \u2013 a guidebook written by Dr. Gary Chapman over 30 years ago. Dr. Chapman used his background as a counselor to spread the knowledge of the love languages so that people could form meaningful and lasting relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not familiar with the five love languages, they are receiving gifts, physical touch, acts of service, quality time, and words of affirmation. One of those probably stood out to you more than the others, that\u2019s most likely your primary love language. Now, what about your partner?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Knowing your partner\u2019s love language can help you meet each other’s needs on a deeper level, and understand when they\u2019re not being met. Still, if you have different primary love languages, then it might not be totally natural for you to give in the ways that your partner needs. We\u2019re here to help.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If your sweetie is oohed and awed by whispering sweet nothings into his ear, then he may gravitate towards words of affirmation \u2013 positive, uplifting, and personal sentences, quotes, and phrases that make him feel seen and validated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As amazing of a partner as you are, you might not be the poet or wordsmith that you’d like to be. You might not care too much about words of affirmation so it\u2019s not the most natural way for you to share your love. Or you get caught up in the moment that the cat gets your tongue. Still, you know that that\u2019s what your partner needs and wants.<\/span><\/p>\n

No worries! We\u2019ve got you covered. Here are some positive words of affirmation for him no matter what stage of the relationship you\u2019re in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Words of Affirmation When You\u2019re Dating<\/b><\/h2>\n

Dating is fun and exhilarating, especially when you make a meaningful connection with a new person. It can also be nerve-wracking. You want to say what\u2019s on your mind but might not want to come on too strong. We all want to play it cool sometimes, it\u2019s ok!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t woo him with your brilliant one-liners. Here are some ideas:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \u201cI\u2019m really loving getting to know you. You\u2019re so easy to talk to.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cI really appreciate your spirit for adventure. It\u2019s so inspiring!\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cYou make me feel so comfortable, it\u2019s incredibly refreshing to be around.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cYou have the most gorgeous eyes, I feel like I could swim in them.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cIt\u2019s really sexy how passionate you are about ___.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cI love spending time with you.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cI feel such a spark when we kiss. It\u2019s electric.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cI\u2019ve been thinking about you a lot.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cI feel like I can completely be myself around you.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u201cYou make me laugh harder than anyone. My abs are sore!\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Take your time getting to know him, the dating phase can be so fun. When you\u2019re ready for the next stage in your relationship, read on ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Words of Affirmation When You\u2019re in a Relationship<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Every relationship can use a bit of extra zest from time to time. If your partner\u2019s favorite flavor of zest is words of affirmation, it can be helpful to have some quippy and sweet one-liners to deliver him when you\u2019re feeling especially ooey gooey.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Try these on for size:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • \u201cYou make me feel so at home.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cI am so proud of you. You\u2019ve accomplished so much and come so far.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cI have so much fun doing life with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cYou\u2019re one of the kindest people I\u2019ve ever met.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cThat thing you did last night was SO HOT. I can\u2019t stop thinking about it.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cI love how safe you make me feel.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cYou make my heart feel so full.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cYou always show me a new perspective that opens my mind up.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cI completely trust you with my heart and my life.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u201cYou give the best massages.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Ready to walk down the aisle? If you\u2019ve taken your relationship to the next level and are now sporting wedding rings, you might need some fresh ideas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      Words of Affirmation When You\u2019re Married<\/b><\/h2>\n

      If your sweetie is now your husband (or long-term partner), then the tone of your words of affirmation may have changed a bit. You know each other on a whole other level, and you want to communicate that to him.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Take these words of affirmation for a spin:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • \u201cThere\u2019s no one else I\u2019d rather be sharing my life with.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou’re my partner, my person, my husband, my everything.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou\u2019re my favorite person to do life with.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou are my rock. I\u2019m so happy that I can always lean on you.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cI want to spend my whole life with you.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou drive me to be the best version of myself.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou\u2019re the best husband\/partner ever.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cI love it when you start making dinner without me even asking.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
      • \u201cYou brighten up my life and everyone around you.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        At this stage in your relationship, you probably know just what he\u2019s most confident or insecure about. Try to boost him up by highlighting his talents and making him feel better about anything he\u2019s not too confident about. Let him know what a difference he\u2019s made in your life by being your husband.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        From The Heart<\/b><\/h2>\n

        The most important thing when it comes to words of affirmation is that they come from the heart. See your partner doing something that you love? Tell him. Does he look extra sexy in that crewneck? Make it known. Words of affirmation are all about communicating what you love about your partner in the most positive way possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

        If you get nervous about saying these things out loud, words of affirmation can be communicated through all different mediums. You can send them in a text, an email, snail mail, write them in chalk on your sidewalk, get creative!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        The amazing thing about words of affirmation is that it doesn\u2019t take much for your partner to know how loved and valued he is. A few snazzy (yet heartfelt) sentences here and there let him know that you understand what he needs, and how to give it to him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
