According to relationship guru Dr. Gary Chapman, there are five love languages, or ways people show and understand that they are receiving love: words of affirmation, acts of service, gifts, quality time, and physical touch. While your guy probably has one or two predominant love languages, these may not be the same as your own. So if you’re looking to show your guy a little bit of affection and make him feel like he’s number one in your life, you may want to play it safe by expressing your love through all five languages.

We’ve listed a few ideas in the gallery below, and we’d love for you to leave a comment and share your tried-and-true methods for showing him you care.
