“When will you give up on loving your kid?”
This past weekend, Thad and I led a 1 day relationship retreat. We led couples through exercises that gave them the opportunity to learn how to become best friends again.
During one of the shares, a woman who was a past client said one of the best pieces of advice she’d ever received was something I had asked her years before….
“When will you give up on loving your kid?”
Of course she replied “never.”
So I then asked her “when will you be willing to love your husband that much?
From that point forward she remembered that love is nothing more than a commitment that you make daily. It’s staying, listening, compromising, and building a life together. It’s the same level of commitment you offer your children if you want it to last.
You wouldn’t buy a new car every time it runs out of gas.
Put gas in, get an oil change, change the tires, and vacuum the crumbs out of the seats now and then!
Invest a minimum of this much time in your relationship and it will pay handsomely:
- 1 hour per day talking without distraction
- 1 day per week go on a date night
- 1 weekend per month spend time reconnecting and doing something fun together
Life without love is lonely, don’t let a day go by that you don’t show your partner how important they are!
