You wife loves it when you help out with household chores. She would be totally surprised if you did some things for her that she never would suspect you to do. Your relationship would be healthier and the two of you would be extremely happy with each other. The neat thing about this is that she will do nice things for you as well. Blessing her will help her to bless you.

Relationships are give and take and a lot of men take all they can get. We can drain our wives of their emotions and life if you do not give back and love them with good deeds around the house. You will be amazed at how much your wife will love you back when you do nice things for her.

I must add a disclaimer that you shouldn’t do anything on this list that you can’t do without breaking or wrecking something. I understand that it is the thought that counts, but do not ruin her favorite pair of jeans because you washed them with a brand new red shirt.

Here are a few things you could do to bless your wife:

1. Hand wash the dishes.
2. Clean the bathroom without her knowing you did.
3. Wash all the laminate and hardwood floors by hand with a bucket of water and a rag.
4. Make the bed for her while she is in the shower getting ready for work or just the day.
5. Water the garden/flowers for her before she gets out of bed.
6. Leave her a note on the bathroom mirror that she deserves a back rub when you get home. It will make her happy all day.
7. Wash the laundry for her instead of having her do it. Please sort the whites and colors though.
8. Vacuum the whole house as if your life depended on it. Vacuum everywhere that the vacuum and hose can reach.
9. Make her a nice little lunch for her to take to work. Slip a few chocolates in there also.
10. Tell her that you want to have a picnic with her.
11. The final thought for this short list is to ask your wife what she would like you to do for her. You may find out some things that will bless her and it will make your relationship healthier.

This is not a whole and complete list. There are so many things that we can do for our wife that will make your relationship healthier and that will keep the relationship going strong.

Please feel free to add some more ideas in the comments. I am interested in why the readers have to say. Tell us about the little things you do for your wife that make your relationship strong and more fun.

A kiss means a lot. It is the action that marks the beginning of a romantic relationship. A kiss is what seals the vows exchanged on a wedding day. A kiss can say hello, goodbye, give comfort, or be romantic, just to name a few. In other words, kissing is always appropriate with that special person in your life. Coming from a woman’s perspective, kissing is essential to feel connected to our mate. I also feel it is one of the things that often gets overlooked as to how important it really is for women, and men, in a relationship.

M was the first guy I had ever kissed. We had dated about a month before we kissed for the first time, and although I was scared out of my mind, I was ready. I had gotten to know M well, and I trusted him. Trust is a big issue when it comes to kissing. You are allowing someone to come within your personal space which communicates a message to the person. Most people don’t just let anyone into their personal space, and by kissing someone, it tells them that you feel a special closeness to them. Although I had never kissed a guy before M, I did have the opportunity to. I was with a group of school friends, and I got to talking with a certain guy from school. We talked for a while and realized everyone else was gone. When I started leaving to meet up with the rest of the group, he pulled me in with his arms and tried to kiss me. I was completely startled and pulled away from him. I hardly knew the guy, and talking with him for about an hour was not enough time for me to trust him enough to kiss him. So like I said before, kissing conveys trust between two people. Continue reading ‘The Importance of Kissing’

It seems that as soon as M and I got married, we were instantly bombarded with questions about when we were going to have children. Some people do it just to harass us, while others are just being nosey. No matter what their intentions in asking, it has really started getting to the point where it is annoying, and extremely predictable. I’m sure many of you out there can relate. Why do people automatically assume that babies are the next thing on the mind after getting married?

Before getting married, M and I had discussed our plans for a family in the future. I highly recommend this to anyone on the road to marriage so your partner clearly knows your feelings on the issue. M has always known that I would be just fine not having any children. I am very happy with it just being M and I. However, he has always loved the thought of having a family someday. Though it seems like we were on polar opposites on the issue, we decided to get married anyways, after all, my views could someday change as my “biological clock” kept ticking.
