Within a marriage, there will be times when you feel extremely close to your spouse and there are other times when you may feel very distant, or there's a dry spell.
This is perfectly normal and happens in any marriage.
However, when the dry period or the distance is left for too long, consequences may have to be dealt with.
Luckily, there are many ways that you can rekindle the romance after a dry spell and keep your marriage running long and strong.
Here are some tips to do just that! oMake a commitment to spend more time with your spouse.
For instance, you could make a promise to yourself or have a goal of spending an hour a day with your spouse.
It doesn't have to be romantic, heart to heart conversation time.
As long as the two of you are doing something you enjoy together, you will be fine.
Try watching your favorite movies together, or taking a long walk.
You can even go out and do some fun things, like bowling or something else that the two of you enjoy.
Spending time together with each other, doing things that are enjoyable will help those bonds get stronger.
oDo something to excite your spouse or something that will knock their socks off.
They know how you are and for the most part, our spouses expect a certain behavior from us.
Do something that is not at all like something you would normally do.
Be sure it's something that would delight your spouse and completely blow them away.
For instance, if you would normally go to bed wearing a baggy t-shirt and socks, wear something completely sexy and make your husband think he's died and gone to heaven!Or, rather than going out with the guys on 'guy night,' leave and come back to pick up your wife in a limo for a special date night!These kinds of things will keep your marriage hot and spicy, and you will have a lot of fun with it! oThink back to the 'dating' time you had with your spouse.
What were some of the things that you used to do which really excited or made your spouse happy?Try to recapture some of that exciting time and make your spouse remember why he or she chose you out of all the other people they could have chosen.
Do something sweet and romantic or something sexy and exciting.
Staying away from a complete and total routine all the time is a good thing and will help keep things interesting.
These may seem like simple things to do in order to keep the romance high in your marriage.
However, they are some of the most effective things that you can do.
Keeping things interesting and exciting within your marriage is not hard.
Simply think of it as if you were dating and trying to impress your spouse.
This will help you go a long way.
If you don't stop trying, you will see the benefits in a strong, exciting and happy marriage and in a loving, caring and dedicated spouse!
