Today, I posted about "falling" in and out of love and the oxymoron that very phrase is when applied to a lifetime commitment. Feel free to

I think it would be a great encouragement if we could share the different things we each do to keep the flame alive in our marriage. (Please keep it clean though ladies).
For me, it's the simple act of remembering that his needs are different than mine emotionally. That he will not understand my frustration if I do not share it and that I need to analyze my frustration before sharing it with him in the first place to make sure that it isn't something I need to take to God first.
The funny thing is that absolutely none of that has anything directly to do with our relationship...and it definitely doesn't sound romantic.
The second thing I do is to try and make sure there is plenty of alone time for just the two of us! Sometimes it is date night, sometimes it is just hanging out watching the TV.
That's the thing about marriage, it is made up of a lot of moments that we keep as memories and build upon themselves. So, what do you do?
