100 Ways to Love Your Husband: The Simple, Powerful Path to a Loving Marriage by Lisa Jacobson

4.0


Whether you’ve been married 50 minutes or 50 years this book has relevance to EVERYONE! It is the perfect reminder to make every second count, never take your partner for granted and be reminiscent for why you fell in love with “your person” in the first place. I loved that Jacobson put such great reminders down on paper, from simple things like continuing to create date nights to the power of handholding. Some of my favorites were:

#21 – Protect your marriage – don’t let insecurities get in the way of happiness

#42 – Admire your spouse and remind them of all their “winning” qualities

#49 – Show appreciation for the many things your partner does – like unloading the dishwasher once to your million times. It takes all of two seconds to thank them, be sincere and show gratitude. Make THEM smile.

#58 – Intertwine your lives –point to do everything together, from grocery runs to gas fills it doesn’t matter. So much of our days are spent apart at work, why not jump at the chance to do the small things together.

#70 – Listen sympathetically to their day – this is a hard one for me because I am a firm believer of leaving work at work.

#87 – Gratefully accept his gifts

And lastly, never, NEVER forget to love your spouse. These all seem so easy, but don’t let the routine of life let you forget them.
