okay ouch :’) guys help how do i show my bf i really care for him bc lately i’ve been having a hard time showing him affection in front of people at school and i need to work on telling him how i feel and that i’ll help him through stuff (even tho he’s always fine haha) but also that i really appreciate how much he helps me bc i feel awful with how i’ve been treating him the past week.

in the back of my mind i was hoping i’ve been doing a better job so when he sent that ,, ow ow :(

i’m so mad at myself i’ve been crying for an hour. and there’s not a single piece of me that’s upset with him at all, i’m so angry at myself

i put those laughing emojis bc we’ve never ever had a fight and i didn’t want to cause one or be an *sshole

have you heard of the types of loves? like some people show their love in different ways. maybe if you could identify it it would help him understand when you’re showing your love. not everyone is super affectionate in the obvious way

I found a website called 5lovelanguages.com, it might help bc they have quizzes for that stuff so you can figure out what it most important to you

mine is quality time

I saw a thing that said the a lot of people express affection differently, and if you aren’t completely comfortable showing affection you could maybe show it in a different way like one thing I saw was telling him that two taps on his arm or squeezing his hand two times meant I love you. honestly idk of that makes any sense but don’t be too hard on yourself 💗

You just have to remember that people express affection differently 💗💗

“for realsies” hes such a softie aW

I wish I could offer help or some ideas but to be honest, Mack & I struggle with that sometimes too? I just try to make myself as open as I can to be there for her and when I know or few she’s going through something I just say ‘hey I’m here if you wanna talk or anything’ which is all I know how to do? and usually it doesn’t. work. but maybe just saying that you’re there if he wants to say/talk about anything maybe it would work differently between you two than with me & Mack..?
