He likes feeling needed, and although he sometimes grumbles, he likes having the responsibility. It makes him feel like a man, and it makes him feel like you need him which in turn gives him an ego boost which men love. That's just something you can't change about them.

Photo Credit: xollob58 Take something he usually does, and do it for him, just once. Does he hoover, or put the children to bed? Just take one thing, do it for him, and let him relax while you do it. Then tell him how much you appreciate him helping you, there’s a lot of men that don’t, you know! I might even wash up for my boyfriend tonight...

Tell him he is an amazing father, a great cook, a brilliant husband. Tell him he looks hot, or that you miss him, and that you can’t wait to see him after work. It’ll mean more than you can ever imagine.

Change your plans, send the kids, dogs or chores away, and spend the day with him, doing something you both enjoy. Giving him time and attention is the best way to show that you love him!

Photo Credit: brad0853 Grab his favourite chocolate bar on the way home from work, plan a little in advance and make his favourite meal, buy him his teams shirt, or just a beer. Buy him something that shows that you know him, and what he likes. It doesn’t need to be big, he’ll be flattered anyway.

Ever wondered what makes Posh and Becks a power couple? Their confidence and respect for each other! I have been using these tricks for the last few weeks, and the difference has been huge. My boyfriend has been much happier, even though he says he felt loved before, and I feel much happier too. Making him feel loved? It’s worth it, you’ll feel so much closer together, and it’s almost effortless, too. Have you got a tip for making your man feel loved? Please let me know! Top Photo Credit: jdawn1982
