I think it’s possible to be married and still feel like we’re
living with our boyfriend of years gone by.
Here are five ways that have helped me do just that, and I’m
confident they’ll help you as well!
1. Remember the
beginning:
Anticipation, butterflies, dreams of the future, how you felt,
a dream come true… a dream come true, right?
2. Give up trying to
change him:
Try changing yourself
and see how hard that is… If you could change your bad habits, you’d most likely
not care about his.
We only focus on others’ “faults” when WE are not busy
enough improving ourselves.
How organized is your closet, your underwear drawer, do you
need a pedicure, a haircut, to exercise, to enrich your mind, further your
skills, strengthen relationships with family…
3. Focus on his
virtues and remember his trials:
Too often we unfortunately forget that we’ve been through
difficult times in life, the hurts that have shaped who we are now to a great
extent.
When I remember my husband’s trials I love him so much more
and have so much more compassion for him.
4. Appreciate him
and his efforts:
What does your husband do, as a man, as a husband, as a
provider, as a protector, that show you how much he loves you?
Too often after a while we neglect to notice and appreciate
our husband’s efforts
Their contribution to our lives together
Their hard work and sacrifices
5. Allow him to be
your hero, your protector:
Men want to be our heroes, our protectors, and to PROVIDE
for us
When we allow them to be our protectors they thrive!
When we allow our husbands to just be men, we stress less!
When we become graceful receivers and allow them to give to
us, we synchronize to each other’s natural innate energy!
