How do you make him feel you truly love him without scaring him off? How do you tell him how you feel without making him think that you're clingy? How do you show him affection without making him feel smothered? Everyone knows that men are terrified of commitment. They are put off by women who are too emotional and hate the mushy stuff. Of course, this changes with time and the longer you are with your man the more loving he will get. But in the meantime, here's some advice on how to make him feel you truly love him without causing a kafuffle.

Don't Show Too Much Affection

Being affectionate is always healthy and will show him that you care, but too much affection can be suffocating. Tone it down and let your heart cool off. There's a good chance you're giving him more affection than he needs. Find smaller ways to show your love. If he needs more affection let him come to you. This might sound like the wrong thing to do to make him feel you truly love him but it works. It will show him that you understand and respect him.

Also, be sure not to show too much affection around his friends and family. Men like to keep their emotions bottled up, especially in social situations, so let him take the lead.

Move At A Pace That Suits Him

Men usually like to take things a little slower than women. They need more time to develop an emotional bond and to cope with the changes that a relationship brings. Don't make him make commitments just because it would suit you. Instead, give him some space and let him make them all by himself.

Don't Be The Fist To Say 'I Love You'

Men enjoy the thrill of the chase and if you tell him that you love him too soon he will feel like it's all been too easy. Let him be the first to say it. Then, when you say it back, he'll feel like he's won a special prize and he'll be like a dog with a bone. These are all great ways to make him feel loved. They might seem counter intuitive but trust me, they will make him feel you truly love him.
