Other points:

1. Sit by her. Put your arm around her; hold her hand.
2. Ask her what happened good in her day. Look her in the eyes and listen.
3. Hug her when you get home. Hug her before bedtime, and before you leave for work.
4. Clean up after yourself.
5. Try to avoid griping about things around the house, even if you sincerely don't mean it to be directed towards her.

Just keep in mind this. My boss lost his wife to a battle of cancer; 31 years of marriage. His best friend, lover and wife; gone. Walk around your house, and imagine life without your spouse. Then, treat them in a manner that shows you appreciate them, and are happy to have them there.:)

Have her be your best friend (Judi is my #1 confidant and soundingboard)

Treat her as a girlfriend and not a wife (After 28 years I still grab her and hug her like she's new) (a friendly pat on the fanny helps as well)

Ask her to go out, don't tell her (many times my 1st stop on the way home from the airport is a restaurant where we have a meal together, just me and her)

Get up and get her a cup of coffee (Don't wait for her to ask...and also bring back a couple of cookies or brownies as well)

Don't make man noises with her in the room (You didn't do that when she was your girfriend did you?)

Keep the windshield washer full in her car (Judi really like that one)

Make the bed when she is in the shower (Never a complaint)

Listen to Michael Buble' and Josh Groban with her (Especially if it's David Foster music)

Load music onto her IPod without comment (Trust me)

Never make fun of her in public (no matter how innocent you mean it to be)

Open all doors for her, car, house, whatever (Youll be surprised by the reactions of other people with this one)

Before you do anything else in the morning, as soon as she gets up or you 1st see her, do the hug thing (start the day off right)

Never, but never go to bed angry or without saying I love you (Trust me here too)

Give her the remote occasionally (So you can watch Michael Buble' and Josh Groban)

Respect her space, privacy and individuality (it will pay off)

I think that will cover it a bit for now...

Oh yeah, in my case I have to remember that she belongs to SLUTS (Southern Ladies Under Tremendous Stress), and I do my best to not add to it.

Didn't want or need to repost the whole thing so I had to choose 1.

Randy, some great advice and wisdom in those words. Sound advice and wisdom.

My husband despairs sometimes because he's run out of ideas for power tools to get me. :D

I saw a lot of great responses. :applause:

Truly, after awhile people may crave the "heart goes bump" feeling and say it means they want "romance", whatever that is, but what it really is is the feeling of being cherished. We tend to work harder on that at first, then get in the groove and not venture out much afterward.

But it's possible to leave the rut. Here's a site I found with more ideas.

I once found a kind of book kit with a bunch of invitations and specific ideas for, um, romance :notme:, in a lingerie shop. Many I would never do, but others were charming.

The other problem is last minute anniversary shopping: not so many garage sales during the week. :tg:
