What Makes You Feel Loved?

Just a thought I've been pondering...different people have different ways of expressing/recognizing affection. I'm curious as to what fits those standards for other people.

Me, I'm simple, I guess. In no particular order: initiating a conversation with me, finding my stupid little stories interesting, trusting me, little gifts to show you thought of me, remembering things about me and what I like, writing me letters, especially (although a phonecall or e-mail is almost as nice), actually carrying through something you promised to do for me.

And you?

Since you listed a great deal of ways I find I'm loved, I'll mention other things. Like random hugs or affectionate touches - though I automatically shy away from most physical affection when it's light and true, it makes me smile. Then there is asking how I am - that just brightens my day - and sometimes just sitting around and feeling absolutely great despite the lack of talking.

Sometimes simple is the very best.
