Just think of the last time you went out on a real date with your spouse. And no, a real date doesn’t mean taking the kids to the movies with you and sitting them in the front row while you sit five rows back to cuddle, eat popcorn, and share a large soda. Spending time with your better half can not only save your marriage but brings it back to life. To discover what it feels like to fall in love all over again follow these simple steps:

1. Listen to your spouse.

What is your better half constantly wishing she could do? Is that something you can turn into an evening of fun?

2. Take your spouse out on a date.

Don’t just tell her that you two are going out without the kids, get more romantic and take her out on a date.

3. Buy a gift for her.

Is there something your loved one has been eyeing on but just couldn’t justify buying? Is it in your “cash only” budget? If it is, buy it. If it’s not, find something comparable and unique, then wrap it up in a
real elegant box, tie a ribbon around it, and present it to her on the occassion.

4. Write a love note.

Well, if you are not good at writing, ask someone else to do it for you or surf the internet for love letters. Hallmark is famous for offering cards that pull on one’s heartstrings.

5. Make reservations.

Don’t head out to the local chain restaurant for a meal; you can do that any day. Instead, call ahead and make reservations to some place new. Is there a local resort in the area? How about a private club?

6. Surprise your date.

When you are back from work, surprise her by coming to the door with a bouquet of flowers and/or box of chocolates. (Save the gift and card for later.)

7. Don’t talk serious issues while shopping.

When you finally make it out of the house, don’t talk about the kids, work, school, finances, health problems, or anything else that could add stress or put a damper on the evening. Talk about fun,
no-nonsense things instead.

8. Share a dessert.

Order your spouse’s favorite dessert and two forks, and then offer a bite to one another.

9. Bring out the Real Gift.

If you’re really adventurous, get down on one knee, look your spouse in the eyes, and tell her how much your life together means to you while handing over that beautifully gift-wrapped box. If that’s a bit
too mushy for you, just reach across the table, grab your spouse’s hands, tell her how much you love her and then say, “Oh wait, I have something for you.” And pop out that gift.

10. Go dancing.

Have you always wanted to try salsa dancing? What about line dancing? Now is the time to try something new, you’ll laugh so hard that it’s the perfect way to end the evening. Can’t find a themed dance
studio in your area? That’s okay, just boogie the night away at your local dance club.

Every marriage deserves a little spicing up from time to time. If you follow these simple steps, not only will your marriage thank you for it, but your spouse will be reminded of her importance in your life.
