As in any intimate relationship, complacency can set in. You become familiar, comfortable with each other and before you know it, the fire you once felt is diminishing. This is a common fact of marital life. I see you nodding your head and thinking, \”yep, that\’s us. I want to save my marriage before it gets dull and lost in responsibility\”. Good for you! You\’ve come to the right place. Let\’s see what you can do to rekindle the flame that brought you together in the first place.

Do you remember your first date together? Where was it? What did you do? What were you wearing? Was it raining, cold, sunny, was it warm? What made the day special? Talk about it with your spouse. Reminisce. Bring back the feelings you experienced on that day. After all, that day led to the next and the next and ultimately to a proposal, right? Go back in time. You\’ll see the passion once again make each other\’s eyes sparkle. Oh, the butterflies on that day! Remember? Bring out the photos from when you first met. Look at the way you looked at each other! Oh, the love!

If you are a couple with children, you know their needs take precedence over your own. This is how and when a couple\’s passion goes by the wayside without even realizing it. Remember, in the beginning you were separate individuals with like interests which brought you together as a couple in the first place. Those interests were a key factor in your hearts coming together and wanting to spend the rest of your lives together. Remember? Remember? Good, that\’s a start! Surprise your spouse with a valentine\’s day card in August. Bring home flowers for no reason at all. Sneak up behind your spouse while making dinner or doing the laundry and kiss his/her neck. Spark the tingle that results in a passionate kiss (and maybe more!). Remind yourselves of the passion you shared spontaneously once upon a time ago!

Setting aside a date night is something you hear all the time. That too can become routine and boring. Instead, why not put together a bucket list and start checking off those items one by one together! What were your dreams when you first became a couple? Did you dream of riding a hot air balloon? Learning how to kayak? Do you want to learn how to water ski? What were your dreams? Dreams are meant to be realized. They are that which you look forward to achieving. I\’m not talking about becoming president of the company for which you work. Then again, have you dreamed of leaving the corporate world and gone into business for yourselves? What\’s stopping you? Complacency, that\’s what!

If you have been saying to yourself, \”I want to save my marriage\”, take the bull by the horns and rekindle the spark. After all, isn\’t the spark what brought you together in the first place?
