Vulnerability's role in expressing love through surprises

While speaking to Briefly News, relationship expert and Founder of Engaged Humans, Paula Quinsee said the following:

"When someone takes the initiative (or risk) to surprise their partner, it requires a lot of courage (or vulnerability) in being able to express their love through surprises. This revealing one's true desires, and intentions in a way that makes the person on the receiving end feel special and validated."

The relationship expert and Founder of Engaged Humans added that this kind of act demonstrates "trust and emotional openness, which can deepen the relational intimacy."

Partners who are daring and taking initiative communicate a genuine concern for the other person's happiness by going beyond their comfort zones.

"Surprises that are thoughtful and personal often speak to deeper emotional needs such as the desire to connect, and do something to make both feel significant, and appreciated which can build a stronger emotional relational bond. The willingness to be vulnerable and show affection in unexpected ways can enhance the trust and mutual care between couples," she added.
