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.

I LOVE this. My husband and I have been married for almost 4 years (during which we’ve had three children,(I have to add “none out of wedlock” for good measure) crazy I know!). I think it’s important to keep trying to impress each other and compliments prove that it works
Time flies when you are busy with young children. It is always a good idea to slip those little compliments in as much as possible!
