Marriage.

Staying happily married is something we all struggle with. It’s putting your 100% into it each and every day. We must learn to give and take. Before we can do this properly, we must take a deeper look into who our partner really is. Most of us tend to think that other’s should react and feel the same as ourselves. When a sittuation occurs we all react in various ways. When it comes to happiness, there is a special key that unlocks each of our heart’s. Never is it the same as our own. It’s time to pay closer attention to who one another really is. Over time we learn what pushes each other’s buttons. For some reason it seems to come natural to do so. Although when it comes to satisfying your partner, it seems to be a bit more difficult. Just try keeping in mind how each of our need’s are much different. Ask your partner more questions, and give your partner more answers. We can’t read each other’s mind, nor can we give up with out really trying.

Below are a few tips:

• Take time to write down ten important things that your partner can do to contribute to your happiness! Hang it up in a room where you can glance at it each and every day. When ever your partner does something off of that list, make sure and praise them for doing so. This will help one another get to know the differences in each other. This is key to a stronger marriage.
• For this you will need 2 simple journals. Take your journal and write something down each day. This something can be anything. You may write about your day, a simple thought, or even a fantasy. At the end of each week, swap journals, and read what your partner has to say. This helps you take a good look into one another’s week. Great for any couple, although especially for couples who don’t see eachother as often as needed.
• Romance and time alone is very important for every couple. It’s important to go on at least one date per month. Just the two of you! Take turns each month planning a date. When one plans this special date, don’t tell the other one anything about it. That person must just go along for the ride, and not worry about a thing. This helps you get to know what the other enjoys, and be apart of it. If it’s not something you would normally do, just try and support it. It’s important to take part in what the other enjoys.

Good luck to all of you!
