Number eight – he wants to see your nurturing side.

There is something about a mother – to see a woman take a nurturing role in her life is sexy, romantic and sheer pleasure in the eyes of a man. They love to see you hold your precious children, kiss the tops of their heads and have fun flying kites or wrestling with them. It brings you back to that place of innocence and makes you feel untouchable all over again. He sees this in your eyes and admires you for it.

So, whether you already have children, or it is in the forecast, give him that gift – he wants you to love what you two have created together, and take full advantage of the time you have with these wonderful beings.

Number nine – your friendship means the world to him.

You see these couples who stroll hand in hand down the street talking and laughing – and it makes you yearn for a true friend in your own companion.

More than likely, you two became a couple first based on friendship; so why let that fall behind? Be friends first, and the rest will follow.

Think about it – you spend more time with your spouse than anyone else in life. Isn’t it crazy that we run to others for a friendship, and leave our soul mate standing alone? Bring back that friendship feeling – tell jokes, take walks, laugh with each other, play your favorite games together, try new things as a couple and act as each other’s confidant. Both of you need to have a friend in one another in order to be happy in your relationship.
