Things You'll Need:
- Spouse
- Willingness to Learn
- Patience
-
Step 1
Identify your role in the marriage. Then ask your spouse what they believe your role should be.
-
Step 2
Meet each other to a point that is agreeable and realistic. Don't let your own personal views interfere. Ex. He says sex 5 days, you say we have two small children, how about when I can. - Not realistic. Ex. He says 5 days, you say we have two small children, how about 3 or 4. - realistic.
-
Step 3
Please him. Be supportive when he wants his "man" time. Don't try to include yourself every time he wants to go out with the "boys". Show you trust him. When he gets home, be waiting in a nice negligee or your birthday suit. If he's worked hard all day, have dinner ready (no matter what your situation. Don't make excuses). Rub his back.
-
Step 4
Support her. Show you appreciate her by complimenting on the little and big things she does. When you know she's been with the children all day, offer to give her a break. Run her a nice, warm, bubble bath with candles, or take the children outside so she can take a nap. Give her a hug.

Step 5
Finally, always, always, remember why you dated in the first place. Reminisce. Remember who you went out your way to make each other happy, and how happy you were doing it!
