I must confess… I have a struggle. (Insert long sigh) Marriage was stinky hard for me. The wife thing never really made total sense. My role…well…just wasn’t clear in my mind. I knew I had to be a friend, a helper, a giver and forgiver. Other than that I guess I was lost. So for all you kinda-missed-the-pre-marriage-counseling ladies out there I have a few little things that have helped me along the way.
Dating Divas- good stuff there people! (can do on a cheap budget too!)
5 love languages- again, good stuff
Good examples- find a couple who has been happily married many years
Honor- simply put, honor that guy for the man he is. It just may change how he treats you for the better…win-win!
Speak love- this is a good one for me. I get a little tense and I need to at the least relax for the moment to focus on my words and say what I MEAN *not* what I FEEL. Counting to five is a good slow it down before you respond mechanism
Kisses- yes, even when you don’t feel like it. Be affectionate when/how it suits you. Don’t go super PDA if you are uncomfortable but a little squeeze/touch/smile/wink can go a long way
Happy Lovin’ !
