“Ben listened once again as Jasmine poured out her heart. She was always depressed and wasn’t happy in her relationship. Ben often thought of what he could say to her to make her see that she was worth more than that; but she continued to stay in the relationship. He seemed at his wits end such a beautiful woman.
Her red hair blowing through the breeze; light little freckles sparkling on her face. Her smile lit up the room – though he rarely saw it these days. Ben wished he could make her smile. He wasn’t even sure how to approach her. He didn’t want to chase her off or offend her. He wasn’t sure what to do but he didn’t want to see her so sad—anymore.”
Like Ben many of us get stuck in this situation. The ever honest, always there, friend! And we find it difficult to get out of– is there a way to dodge the friend status once you have gotten this deep? Below are a few ways to subtly show her you care:
Tip 1: Maintain Eye Contact: It is important to a woman that their significant other pays attention to them. This includes maintaining eye contact whether you want to hear what they are saying or not. Your expressions say a lot to them as well. “Have you ever heard anyone say-they gave me the eye?” this is a powerful look it can tell them how you feel without even saying a word. Woman are very perceptive. Just be prepared it just might be what they were waiting for.
Tip 2: Send her Flowers: All woman like getting flowers. [no matter what they say] A out of the blue gesture like this will show them you were thinking about them. Quite often it is the simplest things that get the biggest reaction.
Tip 3: Do something unique for them: Each woman is different but if she is someone you know I am sure you have picked up on her interests. Find something that is unique for her. Her favorite song on a CD. A poem she likes framed, a special outfit she has been looking at for a while. Something between you and her. This will show her you are giving her some special attention. Who knows she may give you a surprise back.
Tip 4: Pay More Attention to her: A lot of times just spending more time around them is enough to get you noticed. Find out more about them. Ask questions, their interests, their hobbies, their favorite color, etc…they will see you are genuinely interested in them.
If all else fails simply tell her…take your chances. It maybe scary to you at first– however once it is out you will feel loads better! She has to have some feelings about you to come to you for her advice. Let her have some space to get her head around the idea. Who knows it might be for the best!
