would you rather your husband show u or tell u he loves you?

Curious about this after a chat I had with DH, he is more of a doer than a sayer, if I had to choose one, it would be, I would rather my husband show me that he loves me, actions speak louder than words.

Re: would you rather your husband show u or tell u he loves you?

  • Definitely both. Actions often speak louder than words but there's nothing like hearing I Love You.

    I think showing it is important but I grew up in a family that says I love you often so I couldn't be with someone who doesn't like to say it.
  • Action.  There is a book called the 5 Love Languages that is good and you can find out what you "language is and your partners"

  • Thats a hard one, I would have to say that I lean more towards actions. All those little things mean so much to me. Also, theres nothing better than hearing I love you as well. 
  • well... I suppose it depends on what the definition of action is...

    flowers, gifts and other presents as a gesture are fleeting... nice in the moment but then what happens the next day?

    Saying it means a lot to be...but by "action" if you mean really listening to things I've asked for help with, or anticipating I need help before i say -- well then I pick action....

    when I asked the question, I was leaning more towards, showing I love you by the little thing like, cleaning the house when he knows you are tired, or starting your car in the morning on a cold day...etc :), sorry, I should have clarified, lol

    i totally was meaning this as well. Yea flowers are great but help with the day to day stuff WITHOUT me asking would be amazing!

  • Definately SHOW me!  And he does.  Its those little things he does that no one else  would notice, but to me it is like he is shouting I LOVE YOU.
