When you interact with your husband are you pulling him toward you in intimacy or pushing him away with disinterest, disdain, or “attitude”?

Become a student of your actions and your husband’s reactions. Note those things that draw your husband in and do those things more often. Examine and avoid those things that push him away. (I’m not saying you should never have a hard conversation or deal with problems. I’m saying there are kinder, better ways of doing so.)

Grace-filled intimacy is about giving with enthusiasm and receiving with joy. Tim Kimmel, Grace Filled Marriage
