There’s no gift like physical affection. An afternoon tickle fight, a weekly back massage, or just that hand squeeze when life is tough.

Ideas for Gifts of Physical Affection

These need not be limited to hugs and kisses: Tickling and other playful touch, back rubs, foot massages, even good old-fashioned hand holding are all gifts that you can give your loved one. Slowly, gently brush your beloved’s hair. A gift of physical affection is one which makes your mate feel desirable, comfortable, and appreciated.

A bottle of lightly scented massage oil or lotion makes a great accompaniment.

A Gift of Service

Acts of service require a keen eye and a servant’s heart. Is there a chore in particular that your beloved has neglected due to lack of time or inclination?

Do it for her, thoroughly and in secret, and you will find their undying gratitude in return for your labors.

Ideas for Gifts of Service:

Washing dirty laundry
Dusting
Washing dishes
Cooking
Vacuuming
Ironing
The list goes on and on and on…

An act of service does not have to be big or elaborate, it simply has to be you giving of yourself and your time in service to your wife.
