Life can sometimes get busy and stressful, and you may end up feeling a little disconnected from your husband. He sometimes feels the same way when life becomes overwhelming. In times like these, it’s important to a few special things to do for your husband.

This isn’t to say you should interfere with your wellbeing to try and please him. Instead, it means looking for ways to draw the two of you closer so you both feel connected. It can strengthen your relationship and help you get through the stressful times together while also ensuring your marriage lasts.

Men can be quite an annoying puzzle to unlock, though. They’re very straightforward, but a little confusing at the same time. As easy-going as the majority are, it can be quite difficult to unlock them and get them to smile sometimes! The good thing, however, is that it’s not exactly the most challenging thing to do in the world.

Let’s say that you’ve got your man locked in and he’s all yours. That’s still not enough, though, right? You can be head-over-heels in love, but you still need to work on things and continually improve your lives individually and collectively.

If you’re standing still in this world, then you might as well be going backwards. You should always be looking to keep that spark alive and that fire burning. If you’re wondering how you can keep him obsessed with you and keep him comfortable with being around you, then here are a few things you can do:

Allow Him To Open Up

Men notoriously do not talk about their problems. They also don’t really talk about things they like either – they’re an odd bunch who prefer to stay quiet and stoic.

Obviously, they’re not all this way, but the majority like to stick to their guns and be stubborn with their feelings. More and more are opening up, but a lot still want to keep quiet. If you allow him to fully trust you with his words and let him open up, then there will be a lot more value and love between the two of you going forward.

Laugh Together And Share a Good Sense Of Humor

A couple that can laugh together is a couple that is destined to last. By no means is it set in stone that every marriage will contain jokes and laughter, of course, but it certainly helps. Laughter is said to be the best medicine because it can change your mood and the way you view someone. If you can make each other laugh, you’ll stay in love with each other. 

Get Him A Gift Every Now And Again

Doing absolutely everything for them will not increase the levels of attraction and love for one another. It might work for the first couple of months, but that kind of behavior wears thin. That doesn’t mean you can’t do it every now and again, however.

You could get him a video game, a new outfit, or a new electronic he’s been eyeballing. A sentimental gift is a good option, too, or maybe he’s talked about wanting to grow a beard with a beard growth kit.

Whatever you can think of that would make him happy and excited, go with it. The gift itself isn’t the main aspect here – it’s that you listened to them and chose a thoughtful gift.

Even when your relationship is going well, it’s important to devote time and effort to keeping it that way.

Don’t let your marriage lose it’s spark by becoming complacent. Try out these ideas of things to do for your husband to draw him closer. You’ll see how well they work, and your husband will truly appreciate the gestures.

A Letter To My Husband

**This letter is what I wrote to my husband for Day #1 of The 30 Day Marriage Challenge**

Hey you,

Life hasn’t always been perfect or easy for us, has it? We always make it through, though, and come out stronger than before. It’s what we do.

That’s the reason I know we are meant to be together, babe. No matter what life throws our way, we get through it together. No matter the obstacle, we stick together and never stop loving each other.

We never give up on us.

Each bad time we go through is worth it. The good times make everything worth it. Your touch, your smile, your laugh, the way you care about me and take care of me… how did I ever get so lucky? How could I ever give it up?

When I’m with you, I know that whatever happens, you’ll take care of me. You’ll keep me safe and help me through anything. When you are around, I know that I matter.

I’m in love with you and this crazy life we have built together, babe. I love the way we grow together, learn together, and change together. Instead of letting life’s obstacles pull us away from each other, we always do it all together.

I wouldn’t want to go through this journey without you. You’re my best friend and my soulmate.

I never want to experience anything without you by my side. And those rare times when you aren’t there with me, I spend my time wishing you were there to share the experience with. It’s all I want in life.

More than anything, I hope I make you happy. I hope you never find yourself regretting our life together, or even wishing you could be somewhere else. I hope you always know how much I love you, even on the days when I’m being difficult and unreasonable.

Thank you for all that you have given me… beautiful children, the chance to experience true love, a happy life, a full heart, the home we live in, and all the other things you have provided for us.

You are an amazing husband, daddy, and provider. I love how hard you work for us, and I appreciate it and am so grateful always.

I love you babe, and I’m so excited about the rest of our lives.

XOXO,

Your Wife

The day I gave him this letter we had a relaxing day at home, and I pulled out this game (not really a game… more of an activity, I guess?) that I bought for us. It was so much fun and really got us talking and laughing together with nothing but these simple cards. It’s a memory that will stay with me forever.
