OK...here's some of things my husband and do from time to time:
Occasionally, I'll surprise him by getting the kids to bed early, and being "beautiful" when he gets home. Now I don't know if you work or not...but if you don't this would work...if you do work, take a half day one day and don't tell him your doing it.
Or get a sitter for the evening.
But whatever you have to do, make it so that when he walks thru that door, the only light in the house is from candles. Wear something nice and new. Make him dinner and have dinner together, with no tv, but maybe some music...and you gotta have the right music too. (R.Kelly or 112) lol!
That's what I would do for my husband...ironically it's a lot of work, but it's well worth it.
I've even gone as far, as starting in the morning, by emailing or text messaging him, pretending to be his secretary confirming his appt for the dinner/meeting that night. If you husband plays along, it can make for a really exciting night!

I've been married for only 5 years. Sad to say my wife and I are separated already. I've learned an important lesson in this part of my life. I suggest that to be able to keep your marriage alive, you should keep a constant communication with your partner. The two of you should practice telling every bit of what you feel to your partner because by doing this you will avoid misunderstanding and it will also help your relationship grow more by knowing the pains and sufferings of your partner. You could also try to set a goal every month on the things that you and your partner would like to do.
