    It depends on who it is.

    If it's family, I give them hugs and stuff, check on them, that sort of thing.

    With Steph, I give her footrubs when she gets in from work, and backrubs, and I snuggle her tightly. I always check on how she's doing, and I try to say "I love you" whenever I'm going to brb or something because then if something happens to me the last thing I said to her wasn't spazzing out over a ridiculous Internet meme or something.

    Family, eh other than my parents I tend to keep my distance with my family these days. Uber-religious and judgmental so I tend to not get along with them.

    As far as friends go I'm only friends with people I give a trout about to begin with so I generally do whatever I can to help within reason.

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.

    Oh. I showed my parents I cared one time by moving to BFE per my dad's request and then paying for their boxer's vet & cremation bill instead of using that money to get my license back.

    How am I supposed to know you love me if you don't go up to the elbow?

    A thank you or endorsement isn't enough? Well then, usually like dinner or taking them out to a movie, but mostly I just would prefer to do something that doesn't require me getting hit on by people who have the wrong idea.

    It varies from person to person, but a generalised viewpoint is:

    Being there when they need you, showing that they mean alot to you, and making their life easier.

    I could go all soppy and start regaling everyone with poetic tales of friendship, but, the above statement rings true for me. As does all the other things people have said.

    I'm not a very touchy-feely person, but you know I care about you if I openly show interest in your life and listen to your problems, whatever they may be. I try to offer a lot of good advice and I'll offer to help you with any issues you have.
