Many people have a (bad) habit of taking good things for granted. We rarely say nice things to people around us because they are implied, while we always point out the things that bother us. Because of that, our minds become occupied with negative thoughts and our relationships are at risk. If you want to let people you are close to know how much they mean to you, make sure to tell them these things every now and then.
How Can I Help You?
Knowing they can count on your help means a lot. Even if they end up saying you don’t need to do anything, just the offer can mean a lot and take the pressure off a person’s chest.
You Look Great
You may think your closest friends and family members look great, but when was the last time you told them that? It’s a simple compliment that everyone likes to receive, and it can be especially important to tell it to your partner every once in a while to let them know you still like the way they look.
Thank You
After saying “thank you” multiple times every day in interactions with strangers, we often forget that we need to say it to those who are closest to us. Again, don’t take it for granted and make sure your family and friends know you appreciate them and their efforts.
