While I'm a sucker for huge shows of love, the little things can be even more swoon-worthy. Luckily, men have tons of tiny gestures in their arsenals that can make your stomach swoop like you're on the world's tallest roller coaster. Read on, then feel free to add your own!
Four words: flowers for no reason! There aren't many things sweeter than a bouquet of fresh blooms, not because it's your birthday or because he's sorry, but just because he loves to see the look on your face when you get them.
Doing things you could do but just don't really want to. Most of my NYC friends and I are fully capable of removing our air conditioners from our windows. Doesn't mean we don't 100 percent appreciate when a boyfriend does it instead!
Tucking your hair behind your ear. It's a move that says "I want to see more of your beautiful face" in a way so hot, I wouldn't blame you for dragging him to bed cavewoman-style.
Making you a snack after sex. Extra points if it's grilled and involves cheese. You need to restore your strength after all that exercise!
Forehead kisses. Something about it feels so safe. I know, that's about as cheesy as the after-sex snack you so rightly deserve, but it's true!
Handling the household chore you can't stand. Whether it's cleaning the toilet or taking out the trash, he knows which one wants to make you rip your hair out and just does it for you.
Guiding you through a room with his hand on the small of your back. Wobbly knees, here you come.
Emailing you funny links he knows you'll love. He gets your weakness for YouTube prank wars so well, you're constantly stifling snorts of laughter at your desk.
Cuddling. Adorable when it's after sex, so much more adorable when it's while you sleep. It takes some maneuvering to avoid the persistent threat of limbs falling asleep, but it so worth it when you wake up in each other's arms.
Playing with your hair. Especially if it involves massaging your scalp so well, it's like he was put on the earth to do that and only that.
Bragging about you. When he announces your big promotion to your group of friends or his parents, it's embarrassing in a strangely delicious way. It may make you feel bashful in the moment, but try to just bask in the glow of his pride.
Telling you he loves you out of nowhere. So simple and sweet, but probably the most meaningful of all.
What little things do men do that make you fall more in love?
