Affection is how I say I love you. It’s how I feel loved in return.

“

Whisper something in their ear.

“

The light pecks on my cheeks, my forehead, my lips – they’re comforting because they don’t ask for anything more.

“

People who are touched a lot are richer, happier, healthier and in stronger relationships.

There is no feeling as good as the steady, quiet reassurance of frequent tender touches from your loved one.
