I could say, I like it when you tell me how nice I look( if he does tell me. I can't just say it out of the blue), or when you say I love you it makes me feel loved. What do you think? Can you add more to this CL, MAT , Nikki, OT?
Tough question there jak.. not one I'm very good at, either. It may just be too soon on the ILY one. On the compliments, I like your idea of waiting til he says something and then appreciating him for it. Maybe next time you catch him admiring you, you can gently get a compliment out of him too by kinda joking about it - "Hey watcha looking at?" (flirty tone) or something. Then if you do get the compliment, tell/show him how much it means to you.

Just to do the nice little things he used to do before his MLC. IE:he used to make me a foot bath when I got home, candle light dinners a couple of times, Flowers for no reason( I did get some recently because he knew i was upset about phone call from the person who thinks i need to know things).
Boy do I know mean here - I posted a bit about that on my thread too, the "little things." My MC says those ARE the big things, ultimately.
Hey did he tell you the flowers were a result of the phone call? Or is that an assumption on your part?? (I'm bad about assuming the worst). Maybe they were totally unrelated? If you can change your thinking on that, maybe that'll help some, too. See the things he IS doing in a better light.

So happy for you, seems like things are slow but steady and going well.
