Awesome! 100 Reasons Why I Love You

Everyone needs to hear they are loved. “I love you” is great, but knowing why someone loves you is super important. Especially in long-term relationships where the flame can go out if one doesn’t get reminded of why one’s partner loves you. It’s just as important remembering why you love them.

Why you love someone ranges from the physical attributes you adore, to the way they make you feel. Unfortunately people tend to get stuck on certain compliments—like looks or personality, but there’s so much more one can compliment.

One great idea is to create a mason jar with notes about “things I love about you.” You can give it to your partner, with a label on it saying “Reasons Why I Love You.” That way they can pick one note a day to look at.

Or why not create a card for their birthday or your anniversary saying “This Is Reason Why I Love You…”?

Of course, your relationship with someone is unique, so you have to look for what you love in them. Below you’ll find some great ideas, however, for 100 reasons why I love you.
