I'm going to write my husband a love letter

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I think that married couples shouldn't stop doing the things that they would do together when they were dating. I think that at times when a married couple and those who live together before marriage get caught up in the activities of daily living. All the things that has to be done and all the bills that have to be paid. And at times that can be overwhelming. But like you mentioned it's important to make sure both partners stay in love. My husband and I just talked about planning our date night for this month. I'm not exactly sure where we are going to go but it will be nice no matter what we do. We usually go to the movies and out to eat. This date night we will be giving each other a gift. So that will be exciting. I'm already pretty sure I know what I'm getting but he doesn't know what he's getting yet. I think I might get him a cd that he wants not exactly sure yet.

I also support dazzledlady's idea : it is very good to keep the good relationship and passion if the partners keep having some habbits and they keep doing them. For example , once in a while , giving a good breakfast as a surprise once in a while can be nice and make one feel good. Maybe dancing to the song that is considered as the first slow song that both danced. Things that brings up the good memories from the first period of the relationship...like a tradition.

I'm glad that you have decided to do this. You are welcome. It is nice when we receive a love letter from the person that we love and that loves us. Have fun writing your letter. I'm sure that your husband will enjoy it.

I agree that love is very important in all relationships. It really does bond relationships together. And it helps many relationships overcome things that you would ordinary think that you couldn't get over. It is true that two are better than one. I think just like you that it is so nice to know that we belong and that others care about us.

I agree it will be a great booster for our relationship. Congratulations on being a newlywed. If you wrote your love letter let me know how it goes. Yeah the little things we do adds up. At times we can't afford to do something or buy something costly. But writing a simple letter doesn't cost anything but our time.

Yeah I think that my husband will definitely appreciate it. He has been feeling kind of stressed lately with work. A lot of hard work he has had to do. So I hope that writing him a letter will left him up, let him know that I care for him, and that I appreciate all that he does to take care of our family. I hope that you are able to write a love letter to your boyfriend and that he responds. You have a great day as well.

That is nice that you call your husband regularly to tell him that you love him. It is nice when both partners are able to express their love to one another. I'm glad that your husband brings you things. I'm trying to plan a weekend getaway for us this summer as a surprise.It's kind of tricky planning it since I have to be careful so he doesn't find out. And I'm excited a bout it that at times when I think about it I have to be careful so that I don't mention some type of aspect about it to him. We haven't been on a vacation in awhile and so this will be good for us.

I agree with you. The technology that is now available has caused writing letters, snail mail,etc to basically disappear. It is so much easier for person to send a message online. I do think that it is important to sit down and write letters. We are all very busy and the convenience of doing things electronically is very tempting for everyone. Writing a love letter really does express our feelings and we are able to really sit down and think about our feelings. I agree that the traditional way has more meaning.

I agree that love letters can strengthen a bond with any relationship. I'm glad that I have decided to do this. It will make him feel loved and appreciated. And I will know that I'm doing my part to keep our marriage strong. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

I think we all become so busy and our time and attention gets devoted to other things. Your welcome. Yeah your partner will appreciate it and you will be happy that you did it.

I'm glad to hear that. I remember when my husband and I were dating we would tell each other we love each other a lot throughout the day. It was something that we said very often. I'm glad that your boyfriend tells you he cares about you often. It is such a wonderful thing to hear and it makes us feel special. I'm glad that you send him text messages that express your feelings for him as well. It's important that we do these things.

I agree that it is hard to keep up with writing love letters. I know times have kept us all very busy. That's why I was thinking early today that it is something I need to do. We really have to prioritize our activities. I'm sure that 15 minutes away from tv will give me enough opportunity to write a letter.

I agree that it does make a big difference. I'm happy to hear that your husband emailed you and told you how much he cares for you. It does help when we hear things like that because taking care of children, home, and at times working does take it's toll on us. And it helps when we know others are appreciate of our efforts. That was really sweet of him to do that.

Thanks so much. I appreciate that. I do try hard to express my love to my husband do things to make him happy. I don't feel that he appreciates me as much as he should but perhaps if something were to happen to me he would realize all that I do. I really do want our marriage to be successful and happy so I try to do my part to make things work out ok.

Thanks. We have definitely had our hard times but we are striving to get through them. Having a successful relationship takes time and effort. It also requires a self sacrificing attitude. At times I have felt that I'm the only one working for the success of this marriage. But even if at times I'm doing more than my fair share it will benefit the marriage. So I keep trying to do all that I can to make it better. Thanks so much.

Hats off to you,Dominique.You have single handedly kept your relationship intact and I salute you for your sacrifice.I am a Hindu.In our Hindu culture a marriage is considered a relationship that lasts for seven lives of both the wife and the husband.You have realized the great ideal.Go on.God will reward you for your sacrifice and loyalty to your life partner.I hope,he too will soon cooperate.Please,accept my salutes once again.

I agree that it is such an important thing to keep the love burning. As life really can take it's toll on a relationship. The everyday activities can be deaden to even a good relationship if we aren't careful. Sorry to hear that your husband wasn't the romantic type. But perhaps he did other things to show his love for you. My husband does appreciate little things like this. But it takes persuading to get him to think about doing something romantic for me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

That reminds me of something. For Valentines day one year I spend about $20 on a book for my husband and I. It was to get to know each other better. It asked questions and each one had to answer. It was neat to me anyway. I wanted me to fill out a page and him together and go through say a page a day. I thought it would give us something to do together. But I wound up filling out the whole book and him never writing one sentence even. He just would sit and play video games. I wound up burning the book after we split up.

Thanks. I will continue to work hard to try and accomplish this. At times we have had our rough spots but I'm trying to get us through them and keep us strong. You have a wonderful day.

Yeah it is nice to tell our feelings to those we care about. I think that it is more important to do it when there isn't a special occasion. As that shows we are not just doing it because of tradition or because everyone else is doing it. It really is a sincere and genuine act of love.
