Steps that speak louder than words
In a relationship, everything starts with emotions. But it remains thanks to actions. You can talk about feelings for hours, promise mountains, stars and entire universes, but true interest is tested in simple and real actions. These do not necessarily have to be expensive gifts or grand gestures - sometimes attention shown in small things is more important: a call at the right moment, support on a difficult day, a desire to be there, even if it is inconvenient.
It seems to me that a woman feels truly loved exactly when a man's words are backed by a specific "I did". After all, words are music, and actions are a dance. And only in their harmony is born that very feeling that cannot be confused with anything.
So, perhaps, the secret is simple: fewer promises, more steps. And then everything will happen by itself.
