Step 2: Ask for what you want 想要什么就说什么。
Ask your significant other for something specific such as a kiss in the morning, a hug, or kind words. Practice accepting these gifts so that when they come unexpectedly, you’ll know how to react.

Step 3: Learn to trust other people 学会信任他人，要顺其自然。
Learn to trust other people and be more open to new experiences. Don’t try to micromanage and make everything perfect, just let things happen naturally and accept them as they come.

Step 4: Develop compassion 要有同情心，要学会理解你的伴侣。
Develop compassion for other people, especially for your partner. Talk to them about how they feel at different moments and learn to experience these emotions with them at the same time.

Discover how to put your emotions into words to better understand them.

Step 5: Share something personal 要学会与亲近的人分享你的个人感情。
Share something personal with someone you love and describe how it made you feel. Accept their empathy for you openly to build a stronger connection and allow yourself be loved.
