Communication is key in a marriage. How do you talk to your partner? Do you constantly nag or do you have positive comments? Try naming three things each day that your partner has done really well that you are thankful for. Try to do this for as long as you can. Habits can take 27 days to form. Try every night before or at dinner to list three positive things about your partner and see how things change.
“The object of love is not getting something you want but doing something for the well-being of the one you love. It is a fact, however, that when we receive affirming words we are far more likely to be motivated to reciprocate.” (The Five Love Languages, by Gary Chapman)
