What He's Dying For You To Tell Him, Based On His Zodiac Sign
Find out what he wants to hear from you...
weheartit It's the small things that really can strengthen a relationship.
It's doing the chore that you know your partner hates to do, or making their favorite food even though you don't like it that much.
Sometimes all we need from our partners is a small touch or compliment that lets us know they care.
Sure, grand gestures are great. Who doesn't love a huge bouquet of flowers or tickets to see your favorite musical?
But not everybody is wired that way, and your huge display of affection may not even occur to your significant other.
When we're no longer trying to pursue someone and are already in a relationship with them, we can get complacent. We forget about how thrilling it was just to get a text from them or how that love note they left for us in our purse sent us over the moon.

Any kind of communication can be tricky, and we don't always say the right thing at the right time.
There are times when we need our partner to say that they love us or that they're not angry. But the thing that you might need to hear can be completely different than what your partner needs to hear.
