45 Caliber Ways to Say "I Love You"

Men have many ways of making their women feel loved. I've learned that there are still lots of ways to drop those magic little words in the most heartfelt manner- and I'm not talking about usual roses and chocolates.

Here are some unique ways to the usual declarations of love. Some are impractical and costly, but each will surely make her feel very special.

1. Take her to the roof top of a tall building then shout your love for her, as loud as you can
2. Confine yourself to a hospital and ask her to visit you. If she does, tell her that you're getting weaker and weaker because you can't sleep and eat. All because of too much thinking of her.
3. Serve her alphabet soup. While eating, spell the words “I love you” and ask her to read it.
4. Give her a necklace with a key pendant. Inscribed on it are the words, “Would you let me in to your heart?” Never mind if it's Laurentti and not 24K. It's the thought that counts.
5. Send her a love note with a message written in different languages that she's not familiar with. Wait until she asks you or someone to decipher the message and she eventually find that it is simply “I love you.”
6. Try to accompany her when she goes shopping. Then go to the customer service counter and do the paging yourself. With all the shoppers around, tell your feelings for her using the microphone. (Coach the lady at the counter on this one, too).
7. Make a card with a “love acrostic” of her name. Conclude with this line: Just a few reasons why I love you.
8. Send her a sonnet or maybe a short story you wrote expressing your feelings about something intimate between the two of you. But never ever send Shakespeare's or Tennyson's work and declare that it's yours.
9. Invite her to a restaurant. Coax the waiter to be an accomplice in this one. Ask the waiter to say this to your woman, “You know this guy seems to love you very much.” This will make her blush. But don't forget the tip or else.
10. Give her a cake. On the cake's surface lies an intricate design with the words “I love you”.
11. Record the entire proposal in video cam. (Great if you are telegenic. Are you?)
12. Stage a mock rally in front of her house or office. Your placards must bear a politically-correct love message for her.
13. Lease your own space on an advertising billboard and print on it something like “I love you, Alice!” with her humongous portrait on it
14. Fax your message to her then make a call and say it verbally. Make sure that her boss doesn't get hold of it.
15. Inscribe your message in a tattoo
16. Write a letter to the editor of her favorite magazine and declare your love message for her. Make your letter sensible and romantic enough to be worthy of the space.
17. Some love struck Romeos has tried using column-inch classified ads to profess their love for their dear ones. Try to be different by buying the whole page of the major dailies and print your message on it.
18. Give her a pillow with a message stitched on it. This way, you'll always be remembered every bedtime.
19. While on the street with her, stop the traffic yourself. With all the commuters and pedestrians around, announce to her your love message using the traffic aide's megaphone.
20. Announce in a bill poster that you love her. Post it all over the subdivisions where she resides.
21. Invite her for a nightcap and let her take a shot of Cuervo Gold. Instead of giving her a lime to bite, hand her a ring and say the words “because I love you.” With the alcohol's affect on her, you might just hear the words you've been longing to hear.
22. Roses are passé. Match your proposal with a bouquet of anthuriums. Love may cost clearly sometimes.
23. Ask your friend to stage a mock holdup when you are with a woman. Set up a mock chase wherein you emerge unscratched. Make her believe that you are her “hero,” and drop this line, “it's because I love you!”
24. If roses are things of the past and anthuriums quite cost too much then, why not give her a lei of everlasting flowers
25. If she enjoys a romantic novel, give her one. Then write a message on the fly leaf, saying “I promise to love you as deeply and passionately as the hero in this romance novel.” This might squeeze a lot of romantic juices from her.
26. Hire a plane to fly a love message over a public gathering. If you couldn't afford, a taxi tagging your message behind will do.
27. If she's an officemate, send her a message through computer links or E-mail
28. Invite her on a treasure hunt. Give her a map she can use to locate the hidden treasure is a message that says how much you love her.
29. Give her a disarranged specially-made jigsaw puzzle that bears a love message. Then ask her to find out what the message is.
30. If you've got a good voice, sing her a song of your own composition. Then give her a song of your own composition. Then give her a copy of the lyrics.
31. Prepare a firework showcase that will light your love message
32. Give her a knitted sweater adorned with an “I love you” designed by your mom or grandmother
33. Make your proposal when she's down. Hire clowns to perk her up, something like Send in the Clowns. If you want to act the part…better!
34. Award her a certificate that states her outstanding qualities…just some of the reasons why you love her
35. Bake fortune cookies. Instead of the usual predictions, insert slips of paper telling her that you love her and that she is for a wave a good fortune.
36. Hand her a watch and say that your love transcends time
37. Make your own voice tape. Record your own heartfelt song proposal.
38. Invite her to a fortune-teller. Be sure that this one is prearranged. Ask the fortune-teller to tell her that the man she is with at the moment is very much in love with her and that both of you deserve each other.
39. Give her a mug with the words “I Love (woman's name)”etched on it. Just don't smuggle it.
40. Give her a bottle of vitamins with a matching prescription: “take a dose of my love three times a day”.
41. If you can draw, give her a portrait. You may add the phrase A Portrait of My Love at the bottom, if you want to. It makes sense.
42. Take the woman to the cemetery where your dead father lies in peace. Then pour out your feelings for her and swear in front of your father's grave that she's the only woman for you.
43. A friend of mine etched the word love and the girl's on his forearm. Not out of utter desperation nor suicidal urge, but out of dear love. If you don't mind pain, try this.
44. Invite her to dine at any posh restaurant with singers. Ask the singer to serenade your woman with a song you personally composed/choose.
45. Lastly, if one or two of these ideas didn't work, try all of them at the same time. Tell her the three magic words-“I Love You” in the most sincere manner. Who knows, these must be exactly what she's been longing to hear.
