Appreciation is more powerful than gratitude because gratitude is a feeling that you have after someone has done something nice for you, whereas appreciation is the feeling that you feel without receiving anything in the first place. That’s why “I really appreciate you” sounds much more moving than “Thank you”, even though both phrases mean the same thing!

What call center agents taught me:
I attended a workshop many years ago. It was about training call center agents. I still remember some of the content at that workshop – I’m writing it down here so that you can see how this idea can improve your international dating experience.
How to talk to the customer on the phone:
“Hello. Thanks for calling XYZ. This is Felicity. How can I help you today?”
“I’m going to check that for you on our computer now. Could you please be on hold for a minute?”
“Thanks for holding. I’ve checked that for you.” (Don’t say, “Are you there?”)
“Thank you for calling XYZ. Have a great day.” In this example, it is clear that effective call center agents don’t say “thank you” without adding something extra to this phrase. Indeed, when you add something specific to “thank you”, your impact is better!
How to thank your partner:
In a relationship, you would be well-advised to thank your partner by adding a specific reason to why you say “thank you”.
Let’s have a look at the following examples.
“Thank you for the beautiful date night. It’s so unforgettable.”
“Thank you for the delicious dinner. I’m impressed.”
“Thank you for this wonderful holiday. I’ve really enjoyed it.”
“Thank you for being such a kind lady in my life. I really appreciate you.”
“Thank you for this nice gift. I like it so much.”
“Thank you for your hard work. The house looks so clean now.”
“Thank you for treating my family and friends so well. I love you so much.”
“Thank you for being so honest with me. Honesty is always the best policy.”
“Thank you for spending some quality time with me this weekend. This is absolutely amazing.”
Be sure to use this technique in your international dating journey so that you can condition your partner’s emotions and make your partner appreciate you more because Law of Reciprocity is definitely real – when you appreciate your partner more, she will also appreciate you more!
“Make sure that you master the art of saying thank you in international dating.”
