Hi I'm Katy. "How to Express Love with Requests, Not Demands"
My Opinion: Expressing love is something very difficult for many to do due to the insecurities we have inside of us. We tend to criticize, judge and despise ourselves in such a way that we end up demanding what we know as "our own needs" without taking into account the needs of our loved ones.
A way of expressing love properly can be by practicing EMPATHY by listening to what others want to express. There is nothing more beautiful than learning to empathically feel what a loved one wants to imply, whether it is anger, love, desire, feelings of friendship and affection, even hatred. I say beautiful because being empathic we can find the most sincere words that our heart wants to express without demanding the other person to understand us or listen to us.
So listen first, think and then express yourself appropriately and you will see that you will no longer demand love, but that you will make yourself heard and feel the way you want taking into account the other person's feeling.
