I think what has helped that 'flame' in my relationship is taking the time to flirt and be playful with one another... and allowing that flirtation to lead to other, more adult type things. I know my husband is satisfied in our marriage because he tells me so all the time. He tells me what a good lover I am, and how happy he is to be married to me. I just try to remember that even though we have committed ourselves to one another that doesn't mean I shouldn't still show him all the time how attracted I am to him and how much I appreciate him. I think the key to keeping that spark is by locking into the flow of your love and desire, and constantly expressing it through your words, your touch, your body, and your eyes. If you love and desire him, make him know it.

I'm not yet married but I'd like to response on this post of yours. I just wanna say GOODLUCK my dear. They say, marriage is a topsy turvy thing that you've got to embrace. It's no turning back. The advices from others are of course benefecial and helpful but as a matter of fact, it is you and your partner will find out along the way how to work things among the two of you.I think the best formula is LOVE EACH OTHER UNCONDITIONALLY and PUT GOD IN THE CENTER OF YOUR MARRIAGE! Goodluck and have a blissful marriage! The family that prays together stays together!

Keeping the fire burning in a marriage is everyone's desire. In my own opinion, you should communicate with each other even on simple things. You should express your love every second and every minute. You should let your husband feel that he is important and that he is a part of you. Always have time for him. Be there no matter what. Love him for who he is.

The best advice that I can give you is to take time out for each other and always keeps the lines of communication open. The baby is crying, the toilet is plugged, dinner is late and you worked all day. Does that sound scenario sound common? Hunny marriage is no fairy tale and things won't always be perfect. You will have days where you argue and at times you might even ask yourself is this was all a mistake. But the best gift that you can give those two children is too love each and other and to be committed to making the marriage work.
