Quick Tips to Liven Up Your Love Life
"Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth--for your love is more delightful that wine."
Song of Songs 1:2 NIV
-Go buy yourself some new lingerie - TODAY! And I'm not talking, just ANY old stuff. I mean a beautiful color, a great fit. Bras and panties do NOT have to be expensive with all of the bargain stores around. You'd be surprised the quality and choice you will find. Be sure your lingerie matches. Take it home, wash it, and put it on. Feel better? I bet you do! You are beautiful. (Oh, yeah, and get the right size!)
-Stop worrying, stop planning and start doing! Get busy and you’ll have less time to nag your husband about what you think HE should be doing.
-Watch a movie together. If it is a love story--even better. I recommend The Notebook, Walk The Line, A Walk In The Clouds.
-Pull out the Bible and read it together tonight. Take turns reading to each other. When you have completed a passage, take a moment to discuss what you have read and whether you have experienced a time when the verses applied to you. Make this a habit!
-If you are a good cook, make his favorite dessert and tell him you made it especially for him. Maybe he'll pack it in his lunch this week and remember you each time he eats it. Or if you're not so great in the kitchen, mix up a box of brownies or cookies right out of the box from your local grocer. They're yummy, too!
- Dream together! Choose a project you have both wanted to tackle, or a trip you have both wanted to take, or an experience you have both wanted to have -- and dream about it together. Plan how you'll make that dream come true TOGETHER! (Remember though find a dream you both desire!)
-Work Together! Get busy with a project around the house and complete it working side by side. You may be surprised how often you reach out and touch each other during the process!
-Go out and buy your man his favorite candy bar. Write a sweet note--I Love You will be enough-- and wrap it around the candy bar. Leave the note and candy right where you know he'll find it. (the bathroom, his lunch box, his favorite chair) A little thought goes a long way!
-Tonight, when all is calm, ask your husband what he felt he accomplished this week. (Practice just listening!)
-Kiss your husband right in the mouth the next time you leave for work!
--While eating supper tonight, stop and just look at your husband, when he sees you looking at him, just smile -- no other words are necessary.... sure, he'll wonder... but mysteriousness IS sexy!
--When you lay in the bed tonight, grab his hand in yours and give him a squeeze.
--The next time he cuts the grass, folds clothes, washes dishes, etc., tell him, "Thank You!"-Take time to just lay on the couch together, even if you are watching television, just lay together and enjoy the closeness.
