80% of behavior is habits.
Consistent satisfaction amid ups & downs
4 essentials:
1. Show and speak love (oppose complacency) with goodbyes, hello’s and “I love you.”
2. Set the tone for the day in the first 5 minutes. Don’t correct, complain or criticize in the begin of the day… set a positive tone instead.
3. How to end the day: spend 20 mins together within spouses and arrival home from work reconnect emotionally (meaningful hug& kiss& check in with each other).
4. Complement your spouse & speak appreciation

First one has to find a person compatible; man to woman and woman to man with the capacity to communicate with each other.

[@tammyholliday3289]

That’s right. You can do that. Pray for the type of man or woman you want. I did that over 30 years ago. Jesus answered my prayer completely.

Boy that introduction hit hard......Planning anything is a struggle.

[@dr.randyschroeder]

I hear you! Planning can definitely feel like an uphill battle sometimes.

[@kikibeloved6786]

but can one form habits alone in a marriage, my husband doesnt seem to care much

[@cpg1355]

So sorry to hear that. Prayers.

My husband doesn't like communication he prefers to stay with his friends playing Golf and likes to come late, am getting weary. i have asked him to go for counselling he said there was no need

[@alicia4him1]

It may take a long time but try not to say any more to him about his golf and pray that the Lord will put a disstifaction in his heart about it... that he will get tired of it... That he will start to miss you more and more. Pride is a terrible thing and may keep him from admitting it and he will push it out of his thoughts .... and really it may take along time but don´t give up. The Lord loves your husband and want to draw him to Himself. and of course the Lor loves and cares about how you feel about all this.

Can you take up golf? At least maybe just going driving( practice swings)

[@summerjoy247]

I would go to counseling alone to see if there’s anything I can do to improve things 🙏🏽
