Grains Of Sand: 27 Things To Say To Your Spouse
A healthy marriage is a safe haven where we can relax and recuperate from the tensions of everyday life. We need to hear positive things from our marriage partner. Just as I gathered together some friends to tell me what not to say to a spouse, they also suggested what they would like to hear from a spouse.
“Good Job!”
“You are wonderful.”
“You look gorgeous today.”
“You look handsome today.”
“I appreciate all the things you have done for me.”
“I am glad I married you.”
“If I had to do it over again, I’d still marry you.”
“I missed you today.”
“I will always love you.”
“I love to watch your eyes when you are smiling.”
“I trust you.”
“I can always count on you.”
“You make me feel good.”
“I am so proud to be married to you.”
“I am sorry.”
“I was wrong.”
“What would you like?”
“What is on your mind?”
“Let me just listen.”
“You are so special.”
“I can’t imagine my life apart from you.”
“What can I do to help?”
“I prize every moment we spend together.”
“Thank you for loving me.”
“Thank you for accepting me.”
“Thank you for being my partner.”
“You make each day brighter.”
