A Compliment A Day Keeps the Divorce Lawyer Away

Share

Be generous with compliments. It is very common for people to notice something nice about another person and think about it internally, but never voice it.

When in a relationship, compliments are like glue. They hold the couple’s attention and respect. Make sure your compliments are genuine and based on something you see or hear your mate do. If you have a clogged garbage disposal and your boyfriend or husband is able to unclog it, compliment them on being handy. If your girlfriend or wife takes her mother to the doctor, compliment her on her generosity.

The fact is that criticism is destructive and can very quickly tear a relationship apart. Just like the cliché, “If you do not have something nice to say, then do not say anything at all.” This is very true – take notice of the good things your mate does and make it known to them that you see and appreciate those things.

Never Go to Bed Mad

Share

Man, your mate can be a real jerk at times can’t they? They have hurt you and made you angry. They have said or done the wrong thing and now they are trying to justify it with a reason that they think is important.

Your arms are crossed and you are just waiting for your time to strike back. You have the thoughts lined up and ready to machine gun them down the minute they take a breath.

At that moment they trip and almost land in your lap. With the surprise of sudden movement and your spouse inches from you laughter erupts out of both of you. Suddenly, you can’t remember what you were so mad about.

Most of the times when a couple has a spat all it takes is the one person to bring in some laughter or light hearted comment maybe even an apology to make things right.

Your action step is the next time you and your loved one is fighting remember to be the peace maker and never go to bed mad at each other.

A Healthy You is a Sexy You

Share

You might think – what does good health have to do with a good relationship?  In reality, it has a lot to do with it.  Having a good relationship means having the energy to enjoy getting out and doing things together.

To do that, it is important to eat right. A nutritious diet does not have to be bland and boring. Maybe taking a cooking class together can make for fun and a learning experience that will give healthy benefits.

When people are tired, they become short-tempered and frustrated. For this reason, it is important to get the right amount of sleep. If you or your spouse snores it might be worth your time to go to a sleep clinic so they can help you rest while you sleep.

Good exercise keeps your body in shape for being adventurous together. Start slow with a walk around the block and build up from there. Do you enjoy biking, working out at the gym, whatever way you can think of to get some exercise into your routine will help you.

Taking care of your body and mind will flow over into your relationship and make you a calmer, stronger, and better-balanced person.

Surprises Keep the Spices Simmering

Share

If you and your mate have scheduled some time for a Friday night dinner, put together a surprise instead.

For example, if your mate loves professional wrestling, buy some tickets near the front or if they like concerts, purchase the tickets ahead of time, getting the best seats possible. When Friday night comes around, insist on driving and head toward the location where the event is taking place. When asked where you are going, simply answer, “I have a surprise for you. I know you love professional wrestling so I purchased two great seats for tonight’s performance,” or “I know we had planned on going to dinner, but I wanted to surprise you with something special.  I purchased tickets to see one of your favorite groups in concert.”

The idea of you getting the tickets for something THEY like and then keeping it as a special surprise will touch the heart!

10 Tips on How to Help Your Marriage

Share

I am so excited! I just finished my newest ebook titled, 10 Tips on How to Help Your Marriage. I have put a lot of time and effort into it. As many of you can relate it has been my baby over the last couple of months and I am so proud of it. We worked on putting some extras in there just for the people who bought the book. There is a private online workbook that has questions for each chapter. We also have some video segments available in the book. And we are also attaching a free ebook with tips & hints to help make your marriage better. Following is a little write-up about it.

Have the emotions of courtship become tarnished memories?

Do you find yourself wondering where the passion has gone?  Is it difficult to see that dashing white knight in the guy who sits in front of the television watching football every Sunday?

Or maybe the challenge is finding the gal that turned your head with super model looks in the sloppy sweats and curlers that greet you across the breakfast table?

As they say, the honeymoon is definitely over!

The feelings are still there and the love hasn’t diminished.  But with the hassles we all encounter from day to day it’s easy to let our priorities get out of whack!

We live in a stressful world what with work, children and financial pressure.  Before we know it, our marriage has taken a back seat.  It’s no wonder that marriages are failing at an alarming rate.

Here are a few symptoms:

  • In conversation you constantly correct your spouse.
  • You make your partner the butt of jokes.
  • You argue over money.
  • Can’t agree on decisions about the children.
  • Sex has taken a back seat in your relationship.

By no means are these the only symptoms.  If you have forgotten what it’s like to communicate with you spouse as you did when you were dating, you can bet there are other difficulties in the marriage.

Remember what life was like when you were dating?  Those feelings were very real, but they do and should change over time.  The first blush of love is destined to nourish and grow as your relationship matures.

But, you can rekindle the flames of those forgotten memories.  You can breathe new life into your relationship and we are going to show you just how to do it in “10 Tips on How to Help Your Marriage.”

How do we do it?  Take a look and learn:

  •  Catch your spouse doing something “right” – Are you fighting fair?
  • Share domestic chores – Can doing the dishes really help your love life?
  • Becoming a good listener – We were given two ears and one mouth for a reason!
  • Share parental decisions and support – “Mom said. . .Dad said” Do your kids play this game?
  • Never forget to say please and thank you – Why it’s important.
  • Share financial responsibilities – This is a huge issue and you’d best get it right!
  • Remember to apologize – And make sure you mean it.
  • Resolve conflicts quickly – Letting them fester creates a relationship infection that’s hard to cure.
  • Establish marital goals – How to know where you are going.
  • Never go to bed angry – This is not just a cliché!
  • Plan time for romance – Spice is the variety of life!
  • Explore common interests – Just a little bit of “give and take” will go miles toward rekindling the relationship fire!
  • Share your fears and insecurities – How to show your vulnerability.
  • Don’t be afraid to cultivate your own interests – And reveal your own identity.
  • Never succumb to jealousy – This is “sudden death” for a relationship.

Don’t wait until it’s too late.  Don’t become a statistic.  Ensure your successful relationship and grab your copy right now and learn “10 Tips on How to Help Your Marriage.”

Touch Me

Share

When a child is ill, doctors will tell you that it is proven that a simple, loving touch of a parent can quickly pull the child through a crisis.

It is the same for relationships. Playing with your mate’s hair, rubbing their hand, a soft kiss on the neck, a soft pat on the leg or giving a gentle back rub will make a huge difference in how your mate responds to you.  When was the last time you walked up to your mate for no reason and without saying a word, affectionately placed a kiss on their neck?  This is not in a sexual way, but an affectionate way, there is a difference.

The next time the two of you are sitting in the car, at the grocery story, or standing in line at the theater, quietly reach over and take their hand. Do not be surprised if you get a strange look of curiosity the first time!

When You Give Your Marriage Will Receive

Share

Giving to something or someone outside of yourselves and your family can bring you closer to the one you love. It unites you and has you working together towards a cause that you both believe in.

Find a charity that you would both like to contribute to and give something special in both names.  For example, if there is a synergy house near where you live for unwed mothers, go in together and purchase a crib or baby clothes.  Another option would be if a local park needs donations, find out what kind of trees they need and purchase a tree together.  Make this something special where you go shop together and then present together.  These types of kind acts are great for bringing couples closer together and help both people love and appreciate each other even more for their kindness.

It is true that after you give you feel good about yourself, your relationships and the community in which you worked to bring good into.

Keep the Flame Burning in Your Relationship

Share

Every relationship goes through down time.  Just because the flame has become a mild flicker, that does not mean you have lost the love for each other, it just means you need to add a little fuel to the fire.

When couples have been together for a long time, the makeup comes off, the nice clothes turn into oversized sweats and tee shirts, and instead of cuddling on the sofa or floor, one sits on the couch and the other in the recliner.  Step back in time and start getting dressed up more on the weekends, invite your mate to sit with you on the couch, dance together in your living room to some music, or take a walk, hand in hand.  It is important not to let yourself go, even when your relationship reaches a “comfortable” state.  By taking pride in yourself means that you take pride in your relationship.
