Although most of us would like to find a way to spend more time with our lovers, the fact of the matter is that we have to go to work and that means we will spend that time apart. For most of us we understand that the person we are at work will not be the person that we are when we get to our house. We must be two people.
That's the reason everyone loves company parties: coworkers get the chance to see the spouses or dates of everyone else. It is kind of funny to discover how your coworkers react to their spouses. Either they will be fairly consistent with their behavior or they will be a completely different person. Either way, it is always entertaining.
Closeness with your partner can be deepened if you take the time to share your daily activities. Why is it that we think that our mates will not be curious with how our day went? Being apart of someone's daily life is so nice as we learn about their day.
Remember that the love quote that are everywhere are to inspire us and not to be a thing of judgment. Sure, everyone of us wants a love like that which is in the quotes about love. However, that type of love is one that is cultivated rather than only stumbled upon.
It is great to use your time to just communicate and do activities you enjoy. Why don't you go for a car ride and speak of your day. Enjoy yourself playing some board games, all the while learning to laugh with each other and just take life easy for a little while together. Listen to music that had been popular when you met and reminisce about the good old days.
Set aside a half hour every day for each of you to discuss what happened that day. Take advantage of the time to talk about anything that comes to mind. If you use e-mail in your work, forward humorous and interesting exchanges on to your mate - it will feel as if you are genuinely in each others life quite apart from the actual time you spend together.
Plan when your next time together will be and what you are going to do. And do it. Make sure you spend time both in and out of the home together. Learn to mix things up so that your time together will always be interesting. It is important to keep things interesting.
Just one last word of advice, when you are feeling down and feel you no longer want to save your marriage just remember that the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
