Many of us spend countless hours maintaining our homes, our cars, and our bodies. Unfortunately, too many people neglect the most important asset they have\u2026their marriages. To boost your marriage, learn some ways to rediscover your partner and revitalize your marriage.<\/p>\n

With nearly half of all marriages ending in divorce, it is important to take a look at what is going wrong. Too often, marriages fail because the people involved have forgotten what made the relationship great in the beginning. If you want to revitalize your marriage and keep it healthy and happy, follow these simple tips every day to keep the love alive:<\/p>\n

1. Share memories<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Rough spots are normal in any marriage. How you deal with these rough times, however, can make or break your relationship. When things get rough, have a quiet dinner where you discuss nothing with your partner but happy memories you have shared. It is especially useful to talk about when you met and fell in love. Let the happy memories and feelings take the place of any negativity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

2.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Be thankful<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 <\/em><\/strong>Many people make the mistake of falling into a rut. They begin taking things for granted and forget to be thankful for the little things. Every time your partner does something for you, regardless of how small, take a moment to say thank you.<\/p>\n

3. Make your spouse happy<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Try to do at least one little thing every day that is for the sole purpose of making your spouse happy. Even a kind word or sincere compliment can go a long way toward making a bad day brighter.<\/p>\n

4. Be honest<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Small lies and omissions erode trust over the years. To avoid this damage to your marriage, make sure you are honest with one another every day about everything.<\/p>\n

5. Share leisure time<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 While it is vital for you and your spouse to have their own separate interests and activities, don\u2019t get so caught up in your own lives that you neglect your life together. Make sure there is at least one leisure activity that the two of you enjoy together on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

6. Work as a team<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Independence is great, but make sure you and your spouse turn to each other for advice and guidance. Solving problems together will make you both feel more valued and will strengthen your bond.<\/p>\n

7. Woo your spouse<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Remember the things you did to show love when you were dating your spouse? Marriage is not a reason to stop those things. Instead, you should continue making romantic gestures and constantly working to win your spouse\u2019s love.<\/p>\n

8. Keep yourself up<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 It can be extremely easy to let your appearance go once you are married. This is a tragic mistake, however, since physical attraction is an important part of love. Keep yourself in shape and take pride in your appearance so your spouse will keep coming back for more.<\/p>\n

9. Touch often<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 Regardless of how busy or tired you are, make time for sex and cuddling. Do not discuss your problems in the bedroom. Keep that area sacred for love and intimacy only. It is also important to make sure that you touch your partner often. Even a kiss on the cheek when you meet in the kitchen will keep that spark alive.<\/p>\n

10. Keep perspective<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 No opportunity is too small to make your partner feel loved and cherished. At the same time, most problems that seem big are miniscule when compared to the value of your love. Keep your eye on what is truly important and take steps to promote the positives and to minimize the negatives.<\/p>\n

Instead of allowing your marriage to wither and die from lack of care, make sure to feed the fire everyday by showing love, affection and by always treating your spouse like the most important person in your life. If your marriage is already suffering from neglect, it may take some time to bring it back to life. If you are just embarking on a new marriage, begin a great new habit of incorporating these elements into your marriage from day 1. You will find that when you actively pour yourself into the relationship, your partner will gravitate toward you and the love you have will grow stronger than ever.<\/p>\n
