My husband just left to go back to work (he came home for lunch today). But as he walked in the door today, he did two very awesome things: He told me I was beautiful and he thanked me for doing the dishes that we were both too tired to do last night.
He’s winning today. 
I recently read an article going around Facebook titled The Questions That Will Save Your Relationships. I loved it. It talked about the power of asking the right questions. Rather than asking, “how was your day?“, a better question to ask would be “when did you feel loved today?” or “What can I do to help you?”
Going right along with asking the right questions, praising each other with the encouraging, complimenting, and beautiful words will add a similar boost of power to a relationship. I’ve made a list of words of affirmation that every husband or wife wants to hear, but many of these also work for boosting your relationship with family and friends as well. Give them a try.

 Ladies first
