Just because you are married now, your relationship has settled down, and everything seems to be running along smoothly, it is sometimes easy to overlook the little things that will make all the difference in your busy lives.
Such small things which, if undertaken, could avoid any trouble and strife and make your wife still feel appreciated, and a happy lady.
You know the score, you and your wife each has a daily routine, going out to work, picking up the kids from school, shopping, the same situation most days.
Whilst the cycle of daily events cannot always be overly changed, it is worthwhile reminding yourself just why you are both together in the first place.
So, try not to let anything get in the way of showing your wife that you still love her dearly.
What can you do? Here are 4 things that you could try and that should stop the spaghetti from hitting the wall: 1.
Making time each day for one another is probably the most crucial of factors in keeping your relationship stress free and avoiding any unwelcome tribulation.
Whether you may be the main bread-winner or not is irrelevant, your wife will have been equally as busy during the day, so take this into account.
Your marriage is a union and you both are equals, so you each need and deserve the same consideration when it comes to down time, or anything else for that matter.
Being unselfish here is therefore key to the smooth runnings of your relationship and should keep the spaghetti firmly in the saucepan.
2.
If you have kids, and your wife is the one who spends the majority of time with them, offer to take over the reins for a while, so that she can have a well earned break.
This will give her time for relaxation, reducing her stress levels, which will keep her spirits uplifted and her mood bright.
She will appreciate that you have made the effort to help out and this will be reciprocated.
This voluntary approach of yours could also, of course, prevent any trouble that may have been on the horizon.
So, Mr Good Guy, do yourself and your partner a favor and share that responsibility, or the meatballs could quite rightly fly.
3.
If you feel that your wife is constantly nagging you, don't just switch off from it.
I know that this is by far the easiest option, but also the laziest.
There will always be a reason or many reasons why she is upset and giving you strife.
It might not be you at all that is causing her to unload her anxieties, so instead of making the situation worse with your lack of response, sit down with her and calmly try to get to the bottom of why she is feeling this way.
You will usually find that it may be a storm in a teacup, which can be rectified quickly.
It's up to you to communicate with her and be sympathetic to her needs and concerns.
It may be that her frustration is just coming across all wrong, so take the time to find out what exactly is troubling her and take it from there, working together as a couple.
Don't forget to emphasize that you love your wife, tell her so, this will be well received, especially if she is feeling low or insecure.
Doing this should definitely keep things simmering nicely on a low light.

Keeping your marriage on the up isn't always easy, but yes, it certainly is exciting.
One final aspect to consider, is that your wife deserves for the current you to be the man that she married.
Make sure then, that you can do everything possible to show her that you are still that guy.
Don't let yourself go, be kind and supportive, romantic and light-hearted, like you can be.
If you have let things slide lately, take time out to make the best of yourself once again.
This way, your wife won't complain about you, she will have no reason to.
She will even love you all the more, now that you have that magic recipe.
