Do a chore as a thank you.

Did you partner do something wonderful for you? Maybe they got you a special little present, or took the kids so you could nap. When these type of unselfish acts happen you can show how much your appreciate them by helping you partner out. One good way is to complete a chore that they usually do. If he/she is the one that does the dishes then secretly do all the dishes, freeing them up for something they might like to do. This is a wonderful way to say thank you for a special service you partner has presented you with. Always remember what goes around comes around. When you partner does something nice for you, complete the circle and return the favor.

Did you say thanks?

One of the things in a relationship that is forgot most often is the simple thank you. We grow use to our partner doing the things they do that we forget that they are doing them for us. Things like taking care of the children so we can get things done or changing the sheets on the bed. Once we start feeling like they should do these things because the always do, that is when we need to take a step back. Look at what your partner does, how they go the extra mile for us and if we aren't thanking them for it, are we truly being fair to them. Love is the special thing and when you love someone you don't do if for praise or appreciation, however without us seeing what they do for us it might just go away. I hear so many women say that sex becomes a chore in their relationship, but what about the chores does your mate complete tasks day in and day out? Do you think they enjoy doing the dishes or taking out the garbage for fun. They are doing it for your relationship, they are putting in their part to make your relationship flow as good as possible. Think about that next time you get upset because something wasn't done and try to remember when the last time you thanked your partner for doing whatever it is they do. I bet you don't do it nearly as much as you should.

Get her/him a gratitude rock!

If you have watch the movie THE SECRET then you already know what a gratitude rock is. If not it is a special rock that you give to someone to keep in their pocket. Whenever the touch it they are to think about the things in their life that they are very thankful for. The rock doesn't have to be anything special or you can take it home and shine it up, paint it before you give it to your special person. When you are ready to give it to your partner make a special presentation of the give to him/her. Wrap it up in a small jewelry box with soft tissue or cotton in the box to keep it from rattling. Once they open it make sure to explain it to them or you can even type up a little note and put it in the box for them to read. Once they have their gratitude rock you can rest assure that every time they touch it they will be thinking about you.
