‪#‎Refresh‬ your ‪#‎marriage‬/‪#‎relationship‬ :




Tight resources and work responsibilities might make you think that taking a vacation is out of the question. But instead of viewing it as another expense, consider the vacation as an investment into your relationship. Moreover you need not go for a luxury cruise or at an expensive location. Even a ‪#‎weekend‬ getaway at a nearby resort or a ‪#‎couple‬ of days at the beach can be enough to reconnect with each other. Pick a quiet place with no internet, calls from office, reminders of chores at home and preferably no kids. Use this time solely to be with each other. Talk about‪#‎happy‬ ‪#‎memories‬, future dreams and present concerns. When you return you will not only feel refreshed yourself but find that your #marriage is rejuvenated and stronger than before.

Don't go to ‪#‎bed‬ ‪#‎angry‬


Don't go to ‪#‎bed‬ ‪#‎angry‬

When you do, it gives the ‪#‎enemy‬ a foothold in your‪#‎marriage‬. After you calm down, talk it out and make peace. ‪#‎Anger‬ grows if you don't deal with in it in a timely manner.

seven things your husband needs to hear you say




“Forgive me” – In our family, we try to avoid the ‘I’m sorry’ because it doesn’t always seem sincere enough when true damage has occurred within a relationship.  We leave the ‘sorries’ for time when we bump into each other or make a mindless mistake, not something that was done on purpose or with intent. 

“I was wrong” – Asking for forgiveness is a great place to start, but I have found that my husband loves when I admit even more to him with the ‘I was wrong’ statement. I can still see his face the first time this unheard phrase slipped from my lips. He was really shocked that I could admit being wrong and he instantly softened toward me.

“I appreciate how you provide for our family” – Men work hard to provide for their family and in most cases, they do not get any respect for the work that they faithfully do for the company they work for and it shouldn’t be the same case with the family that he works hard to provide for.

“Thank you” – I started thanking my husband for the little things he does, like playing with the kids, helping get our youngest ready for bed, helping with the discipline of our children and just listening to me.  Sharing your gratitude with him should be second nature, but it really took a focus for me to make it that way and I’m said I didn’t start earlier.

“You look so gorgeous” – I’m a strong believer in ‘if you think it, you need to say it’ because people need to hear positive thoughts more than negative ones. Telling your husband that you are still attracted to him, even if he has gained weight or looks different than he does when you first were married (trust me, you look different, too).  Having confidence in how you view him can help him feel more confident in your relationship with him.

“What can I make you for dinner” – Asking my husband if there is anything special that he would like for breakfast, lunch or dinner (or even dessert) really let’s him know that I desire to please him and make him happy.  Many times he doesn’t have anything special because I usually stay with the meals that I know he enjoys, but on occasions, he has been quick to say that he was hungry for something.


“What do you think we should do” – I have always been quick to share my opinion with my husband, however over the last several years, I have been learning to ask his opinion before giving mine.  It has surprised me to find that many times we were both thinking the same thing, but allowing him to go first allowed him to feel more of the leader I have desired him to be in our home.  That has been so empowering to him and an answer to my prayers!  And to think, I was the one standing in the way of getting my heart’s desire.

Relationship Tips: Connect with Your Partner



A lot happens in your life after you exchange I-Do's, so it's only natural that your relationship changes over time. Our relationship advice? It takes work to ensure that you grow closer rather than farther apart over time.
 

Here are several relationship tips about how you can connect with your partner and strengthen your relationship. Your challenge is to choose and complete at least two of these ideas (or else!):

    1)    Go on a date with your spouse/partner.


·         Make it a 'real' date. Go to a restaurant or the movies, visit friends, or attend a sports event.
·         Make it an 'at home' date. If you're staying home make sure to transform the look of the room for the date (e.g. decorating the kitchen or bedroom with candles, flowers, etc.) and hire a babysitter. Your "date" could be a home movie night, dinner, sharing a bottle of wine and talking...anything that gives you relaxed time to connect with your partner.

2)  Spend quality time with your partner at least twice this week.

This is different from the "date" in that it doesn't necessarily involve the romance and preparation that go into a date. 

Relationship Tips:
·         Work out together.
·         Watch your favorite program or a movie.
·         Visit friends/family together.
·         Do something you don't normally do together.

3)  Increase the romance factor in your relationship.

Plan a romantic night at home or in a hotel to strengthen your relationship.

Relationship Tips:
·         Get rid of the old sweatshirt as pajamas and wear something sexier than usual.
·         Try massages, cuddling, or watching a good movie in bed.
·         If you like, add champagne/wine and anything you like to nibble on.
·         If necessary, start by de-cluttering your room so that you have space for romance.


4)  Surprise your partner.

Do something that you know your partner would like but isn't expecting.

Relationship Tips:
·         Do something YOUR PARTNER would like, not something YOU would like.
·         Give a gift, plan a special event, or give your partner some alone time.
