Get Over That Marriage Plateau

Every marriage experiences it's ups, downs, and plateaus...but that doesn't mean you have to settle for being just "ok" with your relationship. Follow these tips to re-kindle that fire in your relationship!

1. Give Service, Think About One Another

When you are constantly thinking about the well-being of your spouse, you don't have the time to complain or delve into your own issues. Lose yourself in service! When you show that you care for your partner they will reciprocate and take care of you too.

2. Plan Unique Dates

A kick boxing class? Rock climbing? Movie in the park? What is "out of the norm" in your relationship and what is something one of you has been dying to try? Set aside funds and set a date to make it happen! Seeing one another in new situations and locations reignites that spark you have for each other.

3. How Did You Fall For One Another?

Revisiting the time when you two were falling in love with each other will bring back the fuzzy feelings you had for one another! What was it that attracted you to your spouse? What were your favorite experiences during your courtship?

4. Make Out!

Well, duh! Connecting through physical touch is a great way to reignite that attraction and passion for one another. Hand holding, hugs, kissing and more will show that love you have for your partner and reinforces the bond that you two have.

5. Fall in Love Everyday
Discover something new about your spouse that you love and appreciate, then show your appreciation for your partner! Falling in love everyday ensures a marriage that will last a lifetime!
