Love you like....

There are an infinite number of ways to describe how much you care about a person.  Each type of relationship requires a different approach.

Recently, I told a good friend I loved her "like a fat kid loves cake."  She didn't get it initially.  She's from the  mid-west and some of her jokes and expressions are different than mine apparently. When it came together for her she said "ohh, I guess that's a good thing?"  Good thing?  Hell yes, it's a great thing!

How do you tell people you love them?  With words? Humor? Art? A hug?  The secret is telling them in a way that they need to feel it. I've personally learned that just because you may like something, your partner may be in a different boat.
