I love you
Telling someone that you love them tends to be a difficult task for some people, but it can be necessary for them to hear. You never know what someone is going through, and even if it is not a big deal to you, it can be all someone thinks about for weeks because of the desire to be loved. Loving someone is amazing, and you should let them know even if you feel like it is obvious. These simple three words can change someone’s whole day, so say it more.
I am proud of you
Let people know when you are proud of them. It can seem like such an easy task but it is necessary to celebrate others’ accomplishments. Even if the achievement is not that big, letting someone know that you are proud of them for trying their best can motivate them to do even more. Whether someone is trying out a new hobby, won a reward, or just got out of bed in the morning, let them know that you are proud of them for their accomplishment, and let them feel loved. Life is hard sometimes, and that validation may be necessary for them to hear.
I don’t think differently of you
There are times when we have to have difficult conversations with others. We may talk about our struggles, hardships, or things we are ashamed of. It is important to let the person sharing these kinds of things with you that you do not think of them differently. Most of the time, people do not want to share because of the fear of being judged. When someone is opening up to you let them know that what they are telling you doesn’t change your outlook on them. Your friend is still someone who is deserving of love, even if they have struggled with different things in the past. Let them know that because it will help grow your relationship, and allow you to have a deeper and more meaningful connection with that person.
You make me happy
Let the people you love know that they make you happy. Even if it is when you are doing mundane things with them, they deserve to know that their presence can bring you happiness.

This is a great form of love to have with another person, and by saying this they will feel loved as well. Have people who make you happy, and that you can say make you happy as well. At the core of the relationship, you need someone who makes you happy, and it feels good to be the person receiving this comment as well.
