Maintaining a friendship is a big part of any relationship but especially for married couples. Sometimes after the birth of a child or the changes in the circumstances of life, couples can lose sight of their friendship. Even if other parts of the relationship fall away, friendship is one of the glues that can hold it together.
Your friendship is vital to the relationship you have. What are some of the things you and your spouse did in the beginning to forge that friendship? Are you still doing those things? If you aren’t what has made you lose sight of that? What are some things you can do to regain that friendship.
We talk all the time. We laugh together. Sometimes we ask each other if the kids think that we are crazy because we are cracking up together all the time. We want to spend time together and we want to maintain the friendship. To help keep your friendship intact, take some time together. Here are a list of tips to get the friendship going again or enhance it.
- Turn on some music and have your own personal dance together
- Indulge each other in your favorite sweet treats if that means chocolate or chocolate covered strawberries and feed one another the treats
- Turn your bedroom or another room in your home into a sensual area with ambience, lighting, music, food, scents
- Take a bath together
- Instead of booking a massage at your local spa have the masseuse come to your home and create the spa experience in your home with a couples massage
- Relive your first date. Ladies will think you put a lot of thought into it.
- Have nights totally dedicated to the other where you do the things that they like. You completely indulge your spouse in their wants for the evening.
- Take in the local scenery. Take a walk downtown, if in a beach area pack a picnic and go to the beach. Or create your own beach atmosphere in your backyard.
