Do You Know His Hobbies?
Author: MInTheGap
You may believe that your husband should have his hobbies and you can have yours, and that both of you can be happy pursuing your own thing on your own time. To some extent, it was probably true. You see, you both entered into a relationship with things that you liked to do.
However, you both learned to do some of the things that the other person liked to do, and you spent time with each other. That time that you invested in your spouse is part of the glue that holds you two together.
What you do together increases your feelings of love for each other because it associates positive experiences with that other person.

Do you want to know why this man is angry? Because his wife noticed that he got his haircut—today. He had it done the day before.
Have you gotten to the point in your marriage when you begin to not notice changes in your spouse? Perhaps it’s weight they’re losing, or the fact that they are wearing something that they like.
You need to make sure that you pay attention to each other, and you don’t get to the stage where you aren’t admiring what they look like.
Especially if they have a twin!
Happy Anniversary, Sweetheart
Author: MInTheGap
It was eight years ago today that my wife and I said “I do” in a small church that was her home church. We had met online and she came near to my hometown to go to college.
I proposed to her on February 6th, nine months after we had begun dating, and we were married July 7, 2001.
Three kids later, with the fourth on the way, I can say that I love her more each day, and that I’m so blessed that it is she who is at my side—and that’s no lie.
Have You Stopped Dating?
Author: MInTheGap
When he was just your boyfriend you couldn’t get enough time together. It didn’t matter what you were doing—the movies, dinner, miniature golf, etc.—you were happy just because you were together.
When you got married, things changed a bit—there was another “activity” that was thrown into the mix, and you started doing all your meals together.
When you add your first child, the dynamics of the family change again, such that you start spending time and focusing on the child’s development.
So my question is, have you stopped dating?
Underappreciated
Author: MInTheGap
You work and slave every day, doing work that you know he wouldn’t like to do. You don’t mind, you’re selfless. However, the fact that he never thanks you or never seems to acknowledge what you do bothers you.
It bothers you so much, that if he does something to help, you don’t acknowledge what he does either—because it’s only fair, right?

Author: MInTheGap
Flirting. It could be used as a derogatory term1 to say that you’re never serious about a person or a relationship. It could be something that you do without knowing it to have fun or to gain attention.
However, there are a lot of flirting myths out there, and we’re here to tackle 5 of them today—right before your very eyes. So sit back, smile, and look at these below:

His Least Favorite Food
Author: MInTheGap
You don’t ever do this, do you? Do you cook his least favorite meal on purpose to try to teach him a lesson?
There is a lot of truth to the statement that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. So if you’re not taking the time to learn how to cook something well, you’re likely hurting your own relationship.
Hey, don’t look at me, I’m just trying to help you out!
Not Tonight

The truth is, the two of you were made for each other—both physically and as the cliche goes. Part of the marriage covenant means being physically available to one another, and though you may believe that you’re making him want it more by withholding—or that you’re teaching him a lesson, you are hurting the physical glue that helps bind the two of you together.
Seriously, physical intimacy does so much to hold the two of you together—and it is something that is pure inside the marriage relationship!
Remember The Children
Author: MInTheGap
Something happens when a woman becomes a mom. The dad loves his children, spends time with his children, but is still a man. A woman changes, and is much more easily focused on her children than on her husband.
It may be that the wife is more invested in the children. She’s more nurturing, probably spends more time with them. They were a part of her insides once, and they have a special bond.
The problem is that the primary relationship that a wife needs to maintain is the one with her husband—both for their sake and the child’s sake.
Your Pledge
The truth is, your marriage will not survive if you do not give each other the attention you pledged to each other. When you said “forsaking all others” that included your children in a way. You promised to have a primary relationship with your spouse. Yes, you love your children and need to show them that love. But that love cannot come at the cost of losing your relationship with your husband.
The Only good Wife is the Trophy Wife
Author: MInTheGap
I’m sure there are many wives out there that believed, before they were married, that the only way they could get a man was to look “hot”. Why else would you have young ladies going to great lengths to get or keep in shape, to be able to show off their bodies, and look at magazines thinking about proms, formals, and their wedding gowns.
The point being that I believe many women believe a lot of their worth is derived from their ability to look attractive to their husband.
But that’s just simply not true.
