You can never say no to or refuse princess treatment from anyone, especially from your boo. Or even from you to you! This type of treatment shows a lot of attention and expresses lots of affection and care towards someone.
Given that the word “princess” is used, it’s mainly referring to a woman, but anyone who identifies as female can receive princess treatment. Heck, you can even playfully use it on a guy when you pamper them!
Let’s learn how to give and receive such TLC down below.
How to Give Princess Treatment
Givers of princess treatment prioritize making their partners feel special, safe, and adored. You’re on the giving end; here are some tips you can use to pamper your partner successfully.
- Use kind and loving language: Such communication is top-tier princess treatment. Compliment them genuinely, offer them words of encouragement and reassurance, and tell them just how much they mean to you.
- Be attentive: Whether or not you’re physically together, always pay close attention to your boo’s needs, moods, or preferences. You can even physically note it down, as it helps. Step in when they feel stressed and praise them if they’re excelling at something they love!
- Make things easier for them: Got errands they’re struggling to meet because of work? Take over them. In need of a massage or some sort of relaxation, but can’t afford it? Either splurge on a spa date or host a DIY spa night. You want to ensure that you lessen any overwhelm on their plate or even make them lift a finger.
- Be generous with the romantic gestures: This can be small or big, but making it personal to them adds plus points. Think of planned dates, remembering important days, and even scheduling sex if you’re sexually active! This tip can also look like knowing their love languages, checking in with them, and giving them whatever they want (with boundaries, of course).
- Celebrate their wins and support them during their losses: Pretty much self-explanatory!

How to Ask and Receive Princess Treatment
If you’re craving for this kind of attention, this section is for you.
- Be clear with your standards and needs: Princess treatment looks different for everyone. Ponder on what that looks like for you, whether you’re leaning towards receiving physical gifts, spending more quality time, or simply being the first priority on anything your heart desires.
- Communicate what those standards and needs are: Nobody can read minds, and making assumptions is no better. With the right timing and location where it’s private, let your partner know what makes you feel loved and cared for. Use “I” statements like “I would love it if we both had Friday date nights.”
- Let yourself receive princess treatment fully: It can be easy to reject help at times, but when someone offers to help you out, allow yourself to accept it. The same thing applies when such treatment is given in aspects of your life that you didn’t tell your partner about. Princess treatment is unconditional, so let your partner be there for you.
- Reciprocate the treatment respectfully: Just because you’re on the receiving end, it doesn’t give an excuse to be cocky about it. Be appreciative towards your partner and return the care in your own way. Even givers like receiving from time to time.
- Set boundaries: If you’re not being treated well, don’t accept that fate any longer. Princess treatment only works and is even applied when you’re in a happy and healthy relationship. Don’t settle for less and know your worth!
Takeaway
Princess treatment isn’t about being spoiled to the core nor being entitled or deemed more “dominant” than the other. It’s about being doting to one partner who likes such treatment, and the other (giver) is happy to provide it. It’s all about balance and mutual respect for one another, and to constantly be appreciative towards each other.
