Seven Ways to Make Your Wife Feel Special

Seven Ways to Make Your Wife Feel Special

You don't have to spend a lot of money, and many times you don't have to spend any money at all, to make your wife feel special. Remember, when she feels special and loved by you, you will be much happier, too.

Love notes. I'm not talking about a romantic love poem written by you, so don't panic. Try slipping a little sticky note that says, "I love you" in a place where she's sure to find it. Plant them all over the house. Her jacket pocket, her purse or wallet, the sugar bowl, the change dish, or anyplace that she frequents. Little love notes are a great way to show her how much you care.

Romantic greeting cards. Stop by the greeting card section of your favorite store and take a look in the "just because" or "romance" category. You can find a large variety of cards that will express just how you feel about your wife. Write a little something in the card. If you're not good with words, that's OK. You can write something as simple as "All my love" and sign it.

Romantic wake-ups. I used to wake my wife simply by saying, "Wake up!" or "Wakey, wakey!" She recently let me know that if I woke her up a certain way, she would wake in a better mood and I'd likely get more sex. She told me to just put my arms around her, gently kiss her cheek, stroke her hair and softly say, "Wake up, baby" or something similar. And you know something? She doesn't wake up cranky and I get more sex.

Maddd D. This does't work... I tried to tell my wife how much I love her... "I'd love you to bring me a beer..." She said "Beer, beer, beer... I never feel like you really *need* ME...", so I said, OK, honey, I really NEED you to bring me a beer." Somehow, she just doesn't understand. - 08/03/2011
Vivian B. Your advice is so on-point, I'm beginning to suspect you're a woman! Excellent! I also loved reading, "The Truth About Affairs (and How to Prevent Them)" and although there were a lot of clueless commentors, I agree with the content of the piece. If men AND WOMEN spent just a little bit of time treating each other the way they did when they first fell in love, marriages would be happier and longer-lasting. My husband does all of those special things, even after thirty-three years of marriage... - 06/24/2011
