6 Things You Do That Your Boyfriend Actually Loves

He may not tell you, but the little things really do add up.

I recently talked with my boyfriend about the things that I do for him that he really appreciates or makes him happy. You may not think your boyfriend notices, ladies, but he does. He adores you and the little things that you do really add up. Here are just a few things that guys are actually glad you do.

1. Ask him how his day was/is

This is a really simple and sweet question to ask. It shows him you care and it’ll start conversation between you.

2. Asking/making sure he is okay 

Guys can’t always hold up the “tough guy” persona. Sometimes they need to be checked on and made sure they’re doing okay. This is another simple way to show you care.

3. Complimenting him 

Believe it or not, they like to receive compliments, too. If he is looking like a snack, tell him.

4. Playing with his hair

Now, not all boys are going to like this. Personally, my boyfriend does and I don’t mind doing so. This can be really calming for them and help them to relax.

5. Your hugs 

He LOVES your hugs. Especially when you don’t see each other for a while, the reunion is always a lot sweeter (distance makes the heart grow fonder, right?).

6. When you talk to him about things 

They like knowing you can come to them if you need to talk. Communication is super important in a relationship. Even if it isn’t about your relationship he does want to know when something is bothering you.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
