Here are some of the creative, cheap ways that I’ve enjoyed using over the years to say “I love you!” to my man. And just in case you are wondering, these are all “man approved,” meaning he enjoyed them and agreed that most other men would too.
1. Make a treasure hunt by hiding a gift and then creating a bunch of clues, making each clue lead to the next and ending at the location of the gift.
This one takes a bit of time to do, but it’s always been a hit with my husband! I mean really, who doesn’t enjoy a good treasure hunt? Simply hide your gift or prize and then create a bunch of clues, making each clue lead to the next and finally ending with where you hid the prize. Hide all but the first clue – you’ll save that one to give to your sweetheart to get started!
2. Tuck notes in his clothes
Take Post-it notes, write a sweet message on them and randomly tuck them into a stack of his clothing (t-shirts for instance) for a little surprise.
3. Buy his favorite candy or snack and put it, along with a love note, as a surprise in his lunch or car.
4. Do one of his usual household chores for him
When he notices (and let’s hope he does!), just grin, give him a kiss and say “I love you!”
5. Write a love note on the bathroom mirror using erasable marker
6. Give him a massage or foot rub
Make it even more special by lighting some candles and turning on soft music.
7. Fix him his morning cup of coffee, bowl of cereal, breakfast smoothie or whatever he likes.
For even more fun, deliver it with a kiss.
8. Send him an unexpected, fun text in the middle of the day
This can be flirty, something you like and appreciate about him or just a simple, “I love you!”
9. Surprise him at work with lunch
Stop by and eat lunch with him – take him something special to eat together.
10. Leave him a note on his computer
You could do this a variety of ways: change his desktop background to say “I love you,” open a new document and type up your note there and leave it open for him to find, or add a note to a current document that he’s working on for a fun surprise. (If you do the last one, you might want to change the font color to red just in case he isn’t observant. You’d hate for him to miss it and end up with the note stuck on something important when it shouldn’t be there!)
11. Make him his favorite meal
The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, right? If he would appreciate it, pull out the china, decorate the table and light some candles too!
