Dull Marriage?

Published: Fri, 06/21/13

Is you marriage dull or boring?

Do you and your spouse do the same things over and over again?

Do you eat at the same restaurants without ever trying something new?

Have you become slaves to routine and predictability?

Not very exciting is it.

Everyone wants a little bit of excitement in their life every now and
again including your spouse - but maybe they've been too afraid to
hurt your feelings to say so.

So here's what you need to: Plan moments of surprise.

Keep your love alive by including the element of surprise.

Surprise makes a marriage fun and playful.

So surprise your mate with an unexpected gift, act of kindness or
romantic encounter.

Here's an idea: Tell them you're taking them to dinner to such and
such place. But surprise them by taking them somewhere else
instead!

Maybe they're favorite artist is in town. Get front row seats and
take them! Along the way to "dinner" they'll realize something is
up. When they ask, just say you've planned something you know
they will really like. Watch them smile and liven up.

Here's another idea: Maybe they secretly enjoy professional
wrestling and would never splurge on tickets. Get the best
tickets you can afford and take them! You might not like
wrestling but you'll have fun watching your partner.

Adding the element of surprise spices up a marriage and makes
the relationship fun.

So what I'd like you to do is plan a special surprise for your spouse -
maybe go do it right now while you're thinking about it. Your
spouse will like it so much that I bet you will do it again and again
and again.

about marriage!
