When you don't tell your spouse what you need, want, or desire you leave a lot of room for them to get it wrong.

Sometimes just saying :
"I love you"
"You look good"
"I am here for you"
"You are beautiful/handsome"
Is really all they need to brighten up their day .
8) Be complimentary.
Happily married men have wives who stroke their egos and give them their warm approval. And in return, these men practically worship their wives. They want to give them the world.

Are you a spouse?

Do you feel like you can't/shouldn't have negative feelings toward your spouse or marriage?
We all have negative feelings sometimes and that is allowed.....
It's how we display them that is the problem
"Feel" your feelings but show them with respect!
12) Be positive.
A relationship means you come together to make each other better. Support each other. Build each other. Believe in each other. Be their peace not their problem.
