Have you ever noticed that even in marriages where the couples seem to
have it all -- looks, money, the perfect story -- things sometimes fall
apart? It leaves a lot of mere mortals without the fairy tale budgets
and picture perfect smile stand a chance. The truth is, that the regular
people of the world stand as much of a chance as those with big budgets
to buy their girls a little bit of everything.
Why?
Because
when it comes down to it, most girls aren't proverbial material girls
no matter how great of a show they put on. They may claim that diamonds
are a girl's best friend. They certainly won't turn them down when
offered. But, what a girl really wants is to feel like the queen of your
world and not just an afterthought. These simple steps might not sound
like much, but they'll make a world of different to the girl who is
currently queen of your heart.
Sweat the Details
Many men
follow the wrong advice when they listen to people telling them not to
sweat the small stuff. Life is the small stuff. It's the small stuff
that passes by, ignored and overlooked, while you're busy looking for
the big statement items. Don't let her get away because you were so busy
looking for something monumental to show your love that you overlooked a
thousand small ways you could have told her or showed her how you feel.
Kiss her Hellos and Goodbye - No Matter What
Life
gets busy sometimes. It's easy to overlook the details of what's going
on at home when you have a thousand different demands firing your way at
the office or you're worried about how you're going to make ends meet
next month. Whatever your worries may be, you should have no worry
greater in your life than greeting your girl hello and leaving her with
something to remember you by throughout the day.
The perfect solution?
A kiss.
It costs little and speaks volumes.
Give her a Night Off Each Week
There's
nothing the average busy wife and mother wants more than a night off
each week. Come home and take over. Plan the meals. Feed the kids. Bathe
the kids. Tuck them in. Draw her a bath and take over kitchen cleanup
duties while she relaxes in the tub. It will feel like a little piece of
paradise to her and show her just how devoted to her you really are.
Send her Silly Little Love Notes
They
may seem silly to you, but these are the things she'll read a thousand
times over the years. She'll wrap them in ribbons and take them out to
look over whenever the road gets a little rough between you. If you
continue sending them, she'll often revisit them to see how things have
changed, and how much they've stayed the same between the two of you.
You
don't have to spend ridiculous sums of money to show her that she
really is the queen of your hearts. More importantly, these small
gestures make her feel like she's the queen of your world too.
