Know what doesn’t make a man feel loved? Jacked up credit card bills and spending more than you can afford. If you’re sharing finances, mind the budget and he’ll love you for it.

Too much time together isn’t good. Give him time to go out with the guys. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, you know!
8. Compliment Him
Men appreciate a sincere compliment. There’re tons of things you love about him or you wouldn’t be with him. Tell him how handsome he is, how you love his kind heart or whatever fits.
9. Plan a Romantic Day Alone ⛵
You can surprise him with a romantic day alone just like he can you. He’ll love that you made such a special effort for him! Make sure to plan something he’s sure to enjoy, though.
10. Give a Little Love 💏
Affection is great glue in a relationship. It keeps it strong! Give him a spontaneous hug or kiss and reach for his hand sometimes instead of expecting him to always reach for yours.

His heart will swell with pride if you brag about him to others. He knows how much he means to you if you do this.

Most guys love their gadgets. If you can, surprise him with the latest gadget he’s been eyeing.

14. Do Your Part in the Relationship
If you’re in a committed relationship where you share responsibilities such as household chores, do your part. It’s not any fun when your partner doesn’t keep up their end of the deal.
15. Ask for His Advice
Guys are fixers! They love when you come to them and ask for advice. It’s even better when you actually take their advice.
16. Initiate Sex ❤
Most guys love when their girlfriend or wife initiates sex. It’s a nice change if it’s something out of the ordinary.
