My sister came over this weekend to attend the first birthday of my child. The big day was an amazing and fun time, with lots of family from my wife's, dad's and mom's sides.
Later that day, we sat down to relax and talk and my sister spilled the beans about her marriage. It's in trouble, and in my opinion, has been since the very beginning.
Just like my mine.
Hearing similiar stories from my sister about her marriage made a real impact with my wife. When we went to bed that night, my wife said it was like seeing our marriage two decades from now - just as miserable, just as 'stuck'.
The following day, WE HAD REAL SEX!!!
It was a very nice start to what will hopefully be a very rich, romantic lifestyle to our marriage.
It reminds me that when we first dated and were married, I spent a lot more time doting on her and being supportive. I've shy'd away from that, with all my resentfulness, anger, etc. I used to tell her in a very loving way how much I loved her. I used to clean up for her and do other things that showed how much I cared. I'll definitely start doing that again.
