Do you wish there was something that you could do in order to save your marriage? Many couples go through hard times in their marriage even though they might still be in love. Before you get to a place that is too hard to get out of, start fixing your relationship now and put romance back into your marriage. Through the years, things do change between a couple. Most often romance is the first thing to go. Things like finances or the needs of the kids can get in the way and out- weigh the needs of the parents. But the need for love and affection does not lessen. By ignoring these needs, the bond between the couple becomes stretched and may break. Plus, if one person is committed to keeping the romance alive while the other puts it on the back burner, resentment can build; and resentment will, without a doubt, crush a marriage. So what are some ways that you can put a little romance back into your marriage before it is too late? When children are involved in a couples relationship, it can be hard to find time just for yourselves. In order to keep the romance in a marriage alive, make sure to hire a babysitter or allow the kids to spend some quality time with grandma and grandpa at least once a month or even once every two months. Sometimes just the chance to have a dinner out alone is a wonderful relationship refresher. It is also possible to show affection to your partner on an everyday basis without being intimate or even being home. Write your partner a love message where they will find it during the day. Something as simple as writing I love you! on a piece of paper hidden in their wallet, or drawer will boost the romance between you two and make your partner feel loved. You can also take a walk together. Put your responsibilities like the dishes, the lawn, and bills aside and show your partner that the most important thing at that time is to spend time with them. A walk is a great way to leave distractions behind and focus your attention on your partner. Remember to take your partners needs into consideration. Maybe romance is not on your to-do list at the moment. But, it might be at the top of your partners list. Be open to the suggestions of your partner. A relationship will quickly fall into the gutter when someone cannot make time for their spouse. We all lead busy lives, but it makes a big difference when you put your schedule aside for your spouse even if it is just to hold onto a lingering kiss. Plus, remember to be open and honest with your spouse about your expectations for affection, sex, and romance in your marriage. Now is the time to start even if the course of your life is not where you expect it to be. Telling yourself that "someday" you will have the time to be romantic
will only hurt your marriage. Sooner or later you will find out that someday never comes and you have wasted the time that you once had.
