Are you in a relationship slump? If you’re like me, you’re just having a hard time competing with your work, religious, and family commitments, and trying to keep them afloat, and you sometimes neglect that relationship between you and your spouse.

I believe that having a family is a fundamental element to our personal happiness. More importantly, having a nurturing and loving relationship with our spouse or significant other is essential to maintaining peace, tranquility, and a sense of personal purpose and accomplishment. You probably have similar beliefs.

Many of my problems come when I forget to nourish that special bond with my wife. Afterall, I’m the one who chose her, and said that I wanted to spend my life with her alone.

Dumb Little Man has 7 tips to be more romantic. I particularly like number 7, "Say ‘I love you.’" My wife always tells me I need to do this more. What’s even better about these tips is their expense. Most are free, and all are low-cost. Just think how much your special relationship would improve if you tried to practice one of these tricks each day.
