One of the bigger issues in saving a failing marriage is that the romance has probably gone from your lives.
This can easily happen. As you grow older together and become more familiar with your partner's likes, dislikes and habits you may inadvertently start taking them for granted. And they, you. It sometimes needs one, or both, of you to put in a bit of extra effort so you can both start feeling romantic again.
Once you start doing romantic things together again, your marriage will be in a much better state. But you need to put in that extra bit of effort. Come on, It´s fun! Here are some ways to get back the romance in your marriage!
Saving A Failing Marriage By Surprising Your Partner
Put a little spontaneity into your relationship
By doing something out of the ordinary for them once a day. This doesn't have to be a big thing, just one simple little thing to back their life a little easier. Maybe take out the trash or empty the dishwasher. You could give them a foot massage or put the kids to bed.
Anything really. You'll be surprised how much it´s appreciated.
Saving A Failing Marriage By Rolling Back The Years
Revitalize your relationship by remembering yesteryear...
...and start doing whatever it was you used to do together. Even if this doesn't become a regular thing, then at least you´ll have a good giggle. Listen to that album you both used to love, go out for dinner, whatever it was. If you are ex rock climbers or something, watch your backs!
Get Rid Of The Kids
Give yourself and your partner a little time alone
Not for ever of course, although that might be tempting! but trying to get a baby sitter once a week can be a big help in saving your failing marriage. It might be expensive but it´ll be worth it. It really is hard to feel romantic when there´s a little one vying for your attention.
So try saving a failing marriage by getting rid of the kids and then maybe lighting some candles, having a glass of wine and......
Making a little extra effort can work wonders
When was the last time you went on a date together? I thought so.... One night a week should be date night. Somewhere nice. You don´t have to spend a lot of money, but it´s certainly nice to dress up once in a while and go somewhere special.
Tell Them How Much They Mean To You
Saving a failing marriage by saying, "I love you."
Do they know how much they mean to you?
It's highly likely the general hum drum routine of every day existence has led you two to take each other for granted. But how hard is it to tell your partner, sincerely, you love them.
It's not hard at all really but you´d think it was nigh on impossible given how often married couples actually do this!
Saving A Failing Marriage By Turning The Lights Out For An Evening
A simple evening in can be transformed when you do everything by candle light. Try it, tonight.
Send Your Partner Little Notes
A post it note stuck to the mirror in the morning is a great way to put a smile on your partner´s face. Just a silly little, "Hey sexy, You rock my world!" will start their day with a great feeling and who knows, maybe they´ll reciprocate!
Flowers- An Old Favorite In Saving A Failing Marriage
Rekindle the fire with beautiful petals
I know, corny but women really do love them.
Roses are fine but why not go for something a bit special. A single beautiful orchid maybe or some Alstroemeria (Peruvian Lilies). Flowers always go down well as long as you take the time to choose something good (hint!-don't get carnations or anything from the local convenience store-go to a florists and ask for advice if you need it)
