Are you in the habit of praising your spouse for anyhting good they do? I though it is necessary to give encourage and praise. It makes the bond stronger and love sweter. What is your opinion?

Yes,you are absolutely right.But unfortunately most of us forget to praise their spouse after marriage.And in my opinion,before marriage,man and woman often praise each other.Like"you are so beautiful""you are great".But after they get married,their love becomes paler and paler.At this time,especially when they quarrel,most couples criticize each other.They even list out the shortcoming of their spouse.Which do harm to their love and marriage. Well,i think we should be in the habit to praise our spouse,especially when he or she is in difficults.

I agree, I always praise my wife saying that she's been a wonderful wife, mother and housewife. And I say this truly from my heart, not just saying it. I think this makes our relationship better and better each day.

Yes, my hubs and I always take time to recognize each others feats and kindnesses. That is a good practice if one wishes to have a happy marriage.

I complement my partner for everything good that he does for me and our family. I thinks it is important that he knows we appreciate even the little things he does and at the same time, it encourages him to strive more.

Now all the time to be honest. And yes it is good to do that and make your partners feel appreciated that they did good or they are good in doing things. Just never gotten around to praising or giving praise as often as needed.

Ya its always important. It gives you feelings of care and concern and it always encourges us to do more for spouse. So if someone is not doing so, he/she should start praising his/her spouse to get more in response.

Not spouse, since the girlfriend and I aren't married yet, but I like to let her know when I'm proud of her and to encourage her. It just seems natural, I suppose.
