Quick Ways to Improve Your Marriage

For both husband and wife, here are some of my quick ideas that may stir up more of your own too.

Quick Ways to Impress Your Wife

These easy, quick tips will really impress her.

1. Next time you’re in the presence of both her mother and your wife, speak to your mother-in-law loud enough for everyone to hear, “Have I told you recently how I really, really love your daughter?” A verbal way to say “I love you” in a new way.
2. Save up some money and stick it in an envelope. Either hand it your wife or stick on a table and leave it for her with a note. Tell her to go spend it and to not come back until she bought something for herself.
3. Complete one half-done job. If you need a suggestion, ask your wife. She’s sure to point one out.
4. Take a blank calendar and once a month cross off an evening as her night. That means you are available for whatever she plans—whether going out or cleaning the garage. She chooses the activity and that’s your commitment.
5. The next meeting the two of you attend, get there ten to fifteen minutes early. Likely no one will be there, so park and neck. You’d be surprised how much privacy you have ten minutes early to a meeting. This says “I love you” with a touch.

6. For your anniversary this year, among the other gifts you buy, buy one rose (not twelve) with a little card. Then, a month later, give her another rose. And the following month, another. Keep going until you’ve given her twelve roses. Each month you tell her how important that anniversary is to you. And you’ll never forget your anniversary either.
7. Or learn to play a few chords on a guitar and serenade her with a romantic song. This one may be tricky, according to your skill, but could be a quick way to impress.

Quick Ways to Impress Your Husband

1. Once a week, grab him, and kiss him on the lips in public. That could be in front of your garage or at K-Mart.
2. Embarrass him at least once a year with a gift. For instance, out of the blue you or someone you hire could dress up like a clown with balloons, carry a gumball machine, and sing a jingle to him at work.
3. Dig out an old pair of boots of his, scrub them up clean, buff them nice, then return them to the closet without saying a word. He’s going to find those and be amazed. “I never knew those boots were brown,” he’ll say.
4. At least once or twice a year, make sure the children are gone for the night before he comes home. Just you and him for the evening.
5. Talk positive things about him at the beauty parlor. Tell whoever will listen what a great guy you’re married to. It may stop the tendency to negative chitchat.

Impressing your mate doesn’t have to be complicated, expensive, or time consuming. But there are quick ways to continue to say, “I love you.”
