Love
By Drs. Les and Leslie Parrot
Regardless of where you are in your relationship, it’s crucial to find ways to start giving your spouse the best version of yourself again. If you want to nurture lifelong love and a happier marriage, here are some tips that will help you give your spouse the best version of you.
1. Share good news with your spouse first
Whenever possible, if you have good news to share, make sure your spouse is the first person to hear it from you. Having close relationships with your family and friends is important, but your spouse should be your top priority. That means before you burn all your excitement with coworkers, friends, or family, take that news to your spouse first.
2. Clear away distractions
Clearing away distractions doesn’t just mean turning off the TV or putting your phone down to have a conversation. It might mean making sure you’ve completed your daily tasks or obligations so that you can give your spouse your full attention. If you’re a task-oriented person, rather than a more people-oriented person, then clearing away these distractions will help you give your spouse your best.
3. Create moments of tenderness
You can certainly make more time for intimacy to create more tenderness in your marriage. However, little everyday gestures can do so much to help your spouse feel loved. Hold hands, look into each other’s eyes, or leave love notes for one another. Remember what makes your spouse light up and add more of that to your marriage today.
4. Listen to your spouse’s heart
Has your spouse been seeking your attention or affection? Have you been pausing for long enough to meet their needs? Listen to their heart when they come to you with concerns.
5. Find your “off” switch
If you’re someone who prefers to stay busy, moving from one pursuit or task to another, it can be difficult to slow down. Finding your “off” switch is essential for a healthy marriage. It doesn’t mean you have to give up activities and dreams you’ve been pursuing. But it does mean that your spouse deserves to spend a little downtime with you.
