1. LISTEN.

Before trying to make your spouse understand what you think, learn to listen to what he thinks. Be in tune with both verbal and nonverbal signs. Do not assume that you know and understand it all.

2. ACCEPT.

Learn to accept your partner in his entirety. As you learn to understand the other person's language, you need to accept all that is conveyed. You cannot change the other person; you can only try to change yourself.

3. AFFIRM.

Acknowledge what you understand and accept. Give your spouse frequent and sincere compliments.

4. DEMONSTRATE YOUR LOVE.

Regularly do things he likes. Send thoughtful text messages, say "I love you," or touch each other affectionately as often as possible. 

5. BE THE BEST OF FRIENDS.

Gain your partner's trust by keeping his treasures and secrets sacred. Realize that trust in a relationship is something you cannot afford to lose. Be your partner's number one supporter.

6. HANG OUT WITH EACH OTHER.

Find common things you enjoy doing together. Spend excessive time with your partner, whether this means doing household chores together or going on special dates.

7. LAUGH TOGETHER.

Appreciate the funny side of life with your husband. Be playful, share jokes, and take the time out to act like kids. Not only will it help you forget about the real world for a while, but it will also give you the chance to reconnect with each other.
