Real ways to win someone’s heart this Christmas

When there’s a special someone in your life, you will seize every opportunity to make them feel extra special, valued and appreciated. But, sometimes, you might wait for the perfect time to do so in a really big way.

Fulfil a wish

After years of knowing each other, you must be aware of their dreams, desires and what they yearn for the most. These wishes are usually very special because there’s likely to be a lot of meaning and reason behind them. Nothing could be more touching to someone than having these wishes fulfilled. This may sound cliché but you really could melt someone’s heart by doing so, for two reasons: one is that you actually cared to get to know them so well, inside and out, and secondly, you go the extra mile to please them.

Dream destinations

There could be many types of wishes one could have. You might want to visit a particular place or destination. This may be a place with lots of sights to see, or a romantic destination with stunning views, like Venice. It could even be as simple as a particular church in or outside your country, or the top of a mountain range where you can witness the glorious sunrise. For some, it could be a museum that inspires them or a place related to some sport.

The big career dream

A wish could also mean a dream job. This could be considered as one of the most treasured and priceless gifts you could give someone. When you know they’ve been working so hard for it, sometimes for over a decade, and you know how much the job means to them, nothing could blow them away than helping them get it. If by any chance, you are able to get your significant other this job, it could make the kind of Christmas they’d cherish, remember, and relive a lifetime.

Perhaps your partner was one step away from landing the job he’d been dreaming of for years, and couldn’t take the offer right away owing to some obstacle or something he didn’t have – the reasons could be many. However, if you figure a way to fill the gap this Christmas by getting your partner that one key thing that’s been missing or removing the big obstacle that’s been standing in the way, you’d be giving him the Christmas he’d never forget in his entire life. It wouldn’t just be an unforgettable Christmas, but could even be one that turned his life around, for the better of course.

The dream encounter

Your partner could be yearning to meet someone they admire. Again, this could be just about anyone – a movie star, a singer or a celebrity in the entertainment industry. It could also be a popular person like a sportsman, an educationist, a speaker, a priest or a President. On the other hand, one could yearn to meet someone they’ve been missing and lost touch with for long years, even for decades, owing to various reasons.

The point here isn’t about who they want to meet, but the reason or the drive behind it. If a popular personality has been a true inspiration or is close to their heart for various personal reasons, you know that the yearning to meet them actually means something. Fulfilling this dream would be an excellent way of telling them how much they mean to you, and how much you care.

Peace-making

It isn’t rare that people have arguments, quarrels and completely break off relationships owing to silly reasons. These breakups and grudges could sometimes go on forever. With time, the hurt you feel because of this could go deeper, making you miss the person more and more, yet you are unable to make a move and reconcile. This could be quite difficult to cope with, especially when the person you’ve broken up with is family, a friend or someone who was close to you and meant so much. As the days pass, the longing to see them, meet them, and put an end to it all could grow stronger. When you see that your partner is going through this sort of struggle, you may want to look for ways to step up and mend things between the two. This sort of move would certainly touch their hearts and be remembered a lifetime.

Give them something they’ve wanted

If you know that your partner has been wanting something really badly, getting them this dream gift isn’t a cliché or old fashioned way of impressing someone and touching their hearts. Most of the time, the reason why they cannot have these items is that they cannot afford them, or they don’t have access to them. For instance, if your partner is a pilot, and he’s been eying one of those rare aircraft models, you may want to hunt it down and make him feel over the moon this Christmas.

People have different passions, especially those connected to their professions. Above all, they may feel that the people around them don’t understand the sort of passion they have and the feelings connected to it. Thus, by getting them what they’ve been longing for, you not just fulfill their dreams, but you show them that you care for them and that you understand and accept their tastes.

Change for them

One of the major things you could do for a special person or the biggest gifts you could give them is to change. There could be one nasty habit of yours that your partner truly wishes you didn’t have.

For instance, if you have a really bad smoking habit or a drinking problem, and your partner really wishes you’d make an effort to improve, even quit altogether, this Christmas would be the time! By deciding to put an end to your bad habits, and being true to yourself, you’d be winning your partner’s heart in a massive way. She’d not just feel plain joy but have respect, love, and pride for you because it isn’t a simple gesture you’re making, but a message that screams “you mean the world to me”.

There are a million ways to tell someone you love them. But, choosing to show them instead, makes your feelings a lot more valid and true.
