How to express love and affection to my boyfriend?

Physical touch is the easiest way to express affection. It also tends to be the top way in which men understand and need it. Hold his hand whenever you walk side by side, rub his back, cuddle him to sleep. Find ways to touch him whenever you can (unless he is working or asks you to stop).

You can also smile at him frequently. Letting him know that his presence and effort makes you happy is more effective than affection. Next time you do something with him, let him know how much fun you are having. And when you're doing nothing, you can say "I love spending time with you. Simply doing nothing with you is good, too."

I find it super helpful to ask what his top “love languages” are… and what the order is for both how he “gives” and “receives” love.

It’s an easy way to figure out exactly how he feels most loved. And as a bonus you get to hear how he expresses love back.

Ultimately though, I think any act of love that is seeped with rich intention makes people feel loved, regardless of which “language”.

Your own version of showing love is what matters. My partner is Audhd. He's never bought me flowers, but he makes sure my computer never has issues, and that the house is a comfortable temperature. It's love, just like how others feel it, just a different colour.

I'm autistic myself. I don't look at it as a "correct" way of expressing love, just different. My affection is very much sincere, but I am not the "typical" lovey-dovey outwardly doting woman. Have you guys talked about where you feel the barriers are regarding your end and how he feels about it. Do you know exactly what he's expecting? Maybe researching and discussing love languages will help find a middle ground.

Title: How to express love and affection to my boyfriend?

Author ohdalebi

Full text: Being close to the diagnosis of AuDHD, I really struggle correctly expressing my love to my bf. Autism seems to block me from this sincere affection that women (usually?) possess, even though I try my best. I truly love my bf and want to create a traditional relationship together with him, but this behaviour of mine doesn't help us at all, ruining everything. It seems that I need to know how to express love correctly in order to learn these patterns.

Please help me!
