My marriage is a priority.
I keep my marriage strong and healthy. I treat my partner with respect. I listen attentively to what they have to say. I am polite and courteous. I care about their welfare.
I provide support and validation. I cheer them on when they are struggling and celebrate their victories. I try to see situations from their perspective. I let them know that their feelings matter.
I give generously. I pitch in with household tasks without keeping score. I bring my partner presents like their favorite foods and novels.
I show affection. I start the day with a big hug and greet my partner at the door when they return from work. We hold hands and write each other love notes.
I discuss my thought and feelings. I allow my spouse to know me and give them the same opportunity. Our familiarity builds a strong foundation for intimacy and trust.
I share my goals and dreams. We work together as a team to build a fulfilling life.
I'll deal with conflicts right away. I am willing to negotiate and compromise. We search for solutions that satisfy both our needs.
I schedule date nights. We enjoy spending a couple of times together away from work and parenting responsibilities. We have fun and remember the qualities that brought us together in the first place.
Today, I connect with my spouse. I treat my marriage like a garden that needs daily tending to grow and thrive.
