#8 of 14 Sweet Nothings
Couples in love speak a special language, called Sweet Nothings. The whisperings of love and romantic talk to each other. Sweet nothings was first noted in a poem by English novelist Mary Elizabeth Braddon in 1776, “as low he bend o’er her he loves so dear, to whisper some sweet nothing in her ear.”

Love encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states, from the most sublime virtue or good habit, the deepest interpersonal affection, to the simplest pleasure.[1][2] An example of this range of meanings is that the love of a mother differs from the love of a spouse, which differs from the love of food. Most commonly, love refers to a feeling of strong attraction and emotional attachment.[3] (Wikipedia.org 2021)
“Many waters cannot quench love neither can the floods drown it.” Song of Solomon 8 verse 7
Thou hast ravished my heart.
“Thou hast ravished my heart.” – Song of Solomon 4 verse 9a
Romance is defined as an emotional attraction towards another person and the courtship behaviours undertaken to express these feelings ( Wikipedia 2021) Romancing someone can be expressed by giving gifts, spending time together or saying special words of affirmation. These could all be examples of courtship, which is a period where a relationship develops. (The Five Love Languages – Gary Chapman)
