“Maintain an element of surprise-- back rubs, dancing to the radio, flowers, home pedicures, dinner out, homemade special desserts, special note in packed lunch, doing the dishes unexpectedly, delivering home-baked surprise to spouse’s work for co-workers, giving a gift on a non-holiday, doing a ”forgotten“ chore with out being asked, staying up late with each other, showing up for lunch on a work day, writing a love letter...” ~ Bethany Badger Freudenreich “Understand your partner’s self needs and learn to provide for them.” ~ Karl Freudenreich
