Brief Tips for Creating a More Loving Relationship
How easy it is to get stuck in a rut when you have been a couple for many years! So many people forget they are in a romantic relationship, but with a flame that once was blazing, yet now is an ember. There are very simple things you can do to improve the quality of your marriage. Here are several:
- Tell your spouse you love him/her at least once per day. Please do not assume that 'he or she already knows that and doesn't need to be reminded.' In successful relationships, partners say 'I Love You' daily, and it always manages to feel fresh.
- Smile at your partner.
- Hold your partners hand, even for just a few seconds.
- Do more than your 50% share. If you are keeping tabs on how much of the workload you shoulder, you probably are not doing enough. If something needs to be done, do it! Your partner will love you for it.
- Appreciate your partner. Say 'Thank you' for the very small things your partner does to help manage your home and your lives.
