I do it when he is not aware sometimes. Paparazzi/incognito selfie. Lol!
To photobomb is easy. To photobomb and get away without the photo's other person being aware, that is ninja!

Everyone has a unique, God-given way of telling you they care, but I really like the five love languages for a general rule.

Quality time (spending time with someone)
Acts of service (doing things for someone)
Gift giving
Physical touch
Words of commendation/praise

They say everyone has a primary and secondary love language. (example: my primary love language is acts of service, and the secondary is likely quality time, which means that when I want to do something really nice for someone, I'll do one of those; and in return, that is what makes me feel the most special from someone else :)). Like I said before, everyone is unique; I've always thought it was kinda fun to observe myself and others and see what blend of the love languages they have, everyone is a bit different :)

That was one of Kim's threads, and at first I thought that post right above yours was Kim's post. I didn't realize it was years ago though... I guess time really does fly.

I'm not quite as passive-aggressive as the maestro himself, DF...

But when I like a person, I try throwing something at them.

You can tell HOW MUCH I like the person by how heavy the object is that I throw--if it's really big and weighs a lot, it means I'm trying to prevent them from getting away.

Unfortunately, I have terrible aim, so they all seem to run away before I can claim my prize.
Sounds like you're doing it right. :)

the uncool thing is when a lady doesn't want to be in a picture with you ... then it makes you wonder about your looks LOL

Well, I mean...there are the 5 love languages (most common ways people express love): Acts of Service, Gift-Giving, Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, & Physical Touch.

So, usually, it's some combination of any to all of those. I mean, you hang out and learn about each other/do stuff together (Quality Time). You try to let him/her know what you think/how you feel about him/her in a positive way (Word of Affirmation). You try to find a way to help with something (Acts of Service) or buy something he/she would like (Gift Giving). Then there's always the kissing, holding hands, hugging/cuddling or whatever you choose to do (Physical Touch).


Usually, somewhere in the mix of all of that (saying how you feel, acting on those feelings, spending lots of time together, going on dates or progressing in levels of intimacy, etc), either you, the other person, or both should get the message of one liking the other. That's just been my experience anyway... *shrugs*

Yes I love the last post. There are love languages that we have to remember. How I see love isn't how someone else does.
My husband feels loved when I organize the bedroom and at least put clean clothes away even when I couldn't care less.
But also I'd love to switch it around. Its important to receive love from someone blessing you.
My husband also shows he loves me by washing and cleaning out my car cause I work and live in it a lot.. I don't really care what my care looks like but he thinks he's helping me.
He does make me coffee after a long time at work and that I'm truly greatful for.
So it's really a two ways give and receive.
