Relationships are supposed to bring you and your girlfriend true happiness. But, if she isn’t happy, then no one really is. Finding the “perfect” thing to say or do to make a girl happy can be difficult. But don’t sweat it! Here are six detailed ideas that lots of girls tend to appreciate.
Random compliments
To start with the basics, compliments are super important and appreciated. Whether it is about her appearance, intelligence, sense of humor or anything that comes to mind. These can help boost her self-esteem and show her that you actually notice these things about her. Even if you both know it’s true it’s always nice to be reminded, especially when she doesn’t expect it.
Asking for her opinion
Girls love it when you ask for their opinions on topics, mainly because they are usually right. Doing this shows her that you care about what she thinks and want to hear her advice. She also might have some great points. But, even if she ends up giving the worst advice ever, it will still make her feel appreciated when you listen to her ideas.
Anything about your friends liking her
This is a big one people. It may not seem like much, but a girl really wants to hear about your friends liking her. It’s a lot of pressure trying to join a new friend group. She just wants to know that they don’t hate her. Meaning, if your friends say anything remotely kind about her, let her know. It will probably make her day – even if she doesn’t show it.
Being included
This applies to more than just girls, but it’s one that people tend to forget. Inclusion helps give your girl a sense of belonging and connection. It makes her feel like she is an integral part of your life and that you really want to be around her. You two can be together for three years and she will still be afraid you don’t like her.
Unexpected hugs
Hugs are so sweet and meaningful and cute, especially when she doesn’t see it coming. Obviously, she is not going to ask for one because then it’s not as meaningful. You are supposed to just give her a random hug to reassure her that you like her being around. It doesn’t have to be the most heartfelt embrace ever, just a nice, wholesome hug to show her you appreciate her. Plus, then you get a hug out of it and if you like her, you should like her hugs too.
Flowers
Come on people, this one is easy. Not just on birthdays or holidays, flowers should be a more common idea. Get some on a random Thursday or the next time you stop by the store. Flowers are the poster child of romance. It’s a kind and romantic gesture to remind her that you are thinking about her. So why on Earth do you only think about her on holidays? That’s almost insulting. Go get her some flowers right now.
Girls are complicated, but doing these things is not. She may not show it, but she will appreciate every little thing you do for her. But remember, you know her better than I do, so add a little personal flair to it. That will be the cherry on top!
