Take pictures every day.
Don't save the camera for holidays and special occasions. Create a visual scrapbook
of your everyday lives together. Better still, set the timer and pose together.
You will both appreciate the warmth of the moment when you see these snapshots
in an album down the road. Set something aside for your
spouse every day. It might be a magazine article you read during your
commute, a link to a website you came across, or even a story you heard at the
office water cooler. They will appreciate that you took a moment to think of
them during the course of your day. Do something thoughtful every
day. Maybe its making a cup of hot cocoa in the morning,
sticking a surprise note in his brief case, or leaving a chocolate 'kiss' on
the night stand before bedtime. Everyone loves a romantic surprise. Be generous with your
compliments. It's always easier to practice flattery at the start of
a relationship, but also easier to forget to say later on. Remember that
everyone loves a sincere compliment and your partner is no different. Let him or her see you at your
best. It's ironic that we dress up to meet total strangers but
let ourselves go around our nearest and dearest. Most men love to see their
woman in attractive colors, in well fitting clothes and perhaps wearing a hint
of their favorite fragrance. Keeping a
tidy appearance is simple but most important. Be honest if you are feeling
stressed or under the weather. Your spouse will appreciate your
honesty and will know not to take it personally when you are in a bad mood. Trust your partner's decisions. You
may not agree with everything your partner does, but truly having trust in
another person requires that you accept the decisions he makes.
