1. Keep your love growing by giving both love and respect
According to www.loveandrespect.com, “Love is a woman’s deepest need and respect is man’s deepest need. I believe this is based on the Bible.”
2. Keep your love growing by making adjustments
The good book says, ‘Look for one another’s interests and not just your own.’ (Philippians 2:4), Thinking of only yourself and not being prepared to meet the needs of the other kills a relationship. It’s called selfishness!
3. Keep your love growing by meeting each other’s needs
A husband who does the dishes, fixes things around the house, cares for the maintenance of the yard and car (Acts of Service) does not understand it when his wife says, “You never hug me.” (Physical Touch). Or, “Why don’t you spend time with me? “ (Quality Time). Or, “You never buy me flowers?” (Gifts) Or, “You never encourage me?” (Words of Affirmation) But, if her expression of love is Acts of Service, she’ll feel so loved because her husband does so many things for her. When you discover the best way your partner wants to express and receive love your whole world will look right and you both will rise to a new level.
Let’s look at three of these love expressions in more depth: encouragement, quality time and showing affection.
