Tips to Help you Bring Romance in Marriage


Life can become a lot different after few years of marriage, particularly after having kids. It is usual for the couples to let other things take toll over their lives, while their romance takes a back stage. For keeping the marriage successful it is important to proactively work on keeping the spark up between you and your partner.

Many times, just failing to do little things can pile up the bitterness in the relationship and can lead to heartbreaking results such as a divorce. Check out an infographic below that showcases some statistics on divorce cases in the US:

In the US, around 41% of the first marriages end in divorce. The percentage goes alarmingly up with around 60% of second marriages and around 73% of third marriages ending up in divorce. The divorce rate among couples with children is 40% lower than couples without children. And out of all states, Oklahoma has the highest divorce rate of 32%.

Such alarming statistics do make it necessary to go more in-depth of the problems that lead to divorce and solve them. Generally, the three most common reasons that can lead to divorce are - Adultery, Absence and Abuse.
While the third reason (abuse) in a marriage can be solved with the help of external consultants, the first reason (adultery) might come in marriage because of the second reason (absence).

Absence of a spouse in marriage - both in physical and mental way can lead to many complications. It becomes really important for the couples to make their presence known to each other, even in smallest possible ways to make their marriage work successfully.

Here are some tips that can help you bring that missing romantic factor in your marriage, and you don't even have to spend too much time, energy or money doing these. Check them out below:

1) Communicate:

Many times we get so busy with our daily routines, that we simply forget to talk to our partners and appreciate their presence in our lives. Even if you are dealing with 10 meetings a day, you can always find time to send a "Thank you" or "I love you" message to your spouse. Not only it will bring a smile on his/her face, it will also brighten up your mood and day.

2) Plan a date:

After spending a long hectic week, it is easy to let the weekends pass doing pending household chores and lying on the couch watching movies on television. However, if you put a little more efforts and plan to go on a dinner date with your better half, it can definitely add a lot of zing to the relationship. A nice candle light dinner, or even a long walk on your favourite walkaway while carrying coffee cups, discussing your lives, thoughts and casual things in life, can help you relax a lot.

3) Little surprise gifts can do wonders:

You can always bring a bright smile on your spouse's face by getting a little surprise gift for him/her. Thanks to these online shopping websites, now you don't even have to plan a shopping trip to a mall or spend loads of time and energy going from one shop to another in search of a perfect gift. Every thing is just a click away on online shopping portals, and you can always buy some nice goody for your spouse. Little surprises can always do big wonders in a relationship.

4) Give yourself a makeover:

Giving yourself a nice makeover can not only make you feel good, it will also make your partner see you in new lights. If you aren't much into fitness, try hitting the gym without letting your partner know and then let him/her observe the positive changes. Get a new nice haircut (or hair color!) and see how much difference it can make in building your chemistry with your partner.

5) Give your partner a relaxing massage:

If at times your spouse has to work long hours at office, instead of barging him or her with endless questions when he/she comes back, try giving a nice relaxing massage at back, neck and shoulders. Not only will your spouse enjoy it, he/she will be more thankful to you for being there and try to spend more time with you.

Marriage can definitely work well if the couples are willing to do their part a bit. What you give is what you get. So, instead of complains, worries and tantrums, give love, kindness and support and I am sure you can do wonders for yourself, your spouse and your family on whole.
