Over time, relationships, in general, become routine. Sometimes they get boring and we lose interest. It happens in the best and strongest of relationships. For couples, it is our responsibility to maintain a certain level of excitement, mystery and spontaneity.
We have control over what happens in our marriage. Of course life gets busy and can knock us down and wear us out in such a way that nothing else matters. That, however, can’t be the case for our relationship. The love can’t grow old or get stale. Each married person’s responsibility is to keep their partner interested and excited to be in that marriage.

Here are 5 ways to make your spouse fall in love with you all over again.
Look Good
One of the biggest reasons a spouse may lose interest is when their partner has let themselves go. In marriage, you can’t not care about how you look. There is another person who looks at you, gets turned on by you and wants to make love to you, as they should.
Don’t you want to be desirable? It’s important we take pride in how we show up for our spouse, just like we do for every other area of our lives.
Feel Good
A positive and optimistic attitude can make even the most difficult situations a little easier. Your partner needs a spouse who will remind them of the blessings in their lives and offer the motivation needed to continue to move forward.
Be Good
Treating our spouse with love and respect, always, is essential to marriage success. Love should always be evident with every interaction you have with your partner.
Remember those early days of your relationship when you were trying to impress? Yeah, you were probably thoughtful, considerate, kind, and gentle. That’s what drew your spouse in and that’s still what they expect.
Do Good
The little things matter and it’s important that we just think of our spouse every now and then. A surprise token of your love or a spontaneous date night are both great ways to make your spouse feel special. Doing things just because, reminds your spouse why they fall in love with you in the first place.
Love Good
Be present by listening and loving by showing affection. We should desire our spouse and be at a point where we can’t even keep our hands off of them because we want them so bad. Couples have to find bedroom (or even outside of the bedroom) activities to maintain the sexy in the marriage. Let’s love hard, good and often.
Our goal in everything we do should be focused on how to make it better. Marriage included. Wanting your spouse to desire you and be happy in that marriage is usually within our power. We just have to exercise that power by being proactive in making sure our spouse stays in love with us.
