Have you ever woken and wondered who the man lying next to you is? No, not back when you were in college – Im talking about now. After years of marriage, you may start to feel like your husband is a stranger. Almost a flat mate? Either way, here are 5 simple ways to stay connected to your husband.
1. Cook a meal together.
You could make breakfast or lunch together just spending time together preparing a meal. What about cooking a nice hot breakfast for yourself’s? Or taking the kids down to the beach to build sandcastles and have a nice walk?
As a bonus you will save money by fixing the meal at home rather then eating out. Plus, you won’t have to get “all dolled up” (unless you want to). Spending this time together is the most important part of the meal.

2. Do a project, have fun and get dirty!
Get stuck in to some jobs you’ve been putting off – clean out the attic, wash the car. Make an afternoon of it and do it together! You’ll both feel a great sense of accomplishment that the job is finally done and it’ll feel great to know that you got it done by operating as a unit.
After working up a sweat, you may both need to take a bubble bath though

3. Spend some quaility time going over your old photos.
Talk about the things that you used to do when you first started out together and make the decision to do them again. Do as many of them as you can, whether you go for walks or catch a movie.
4. Play hooky!
Take a day off work for the day and just spend some time at home with eachother! Lay in bed all day, cuddle, and watch movies. Remember to turn the ringer off on the phone though.
5. Make an effort on a daily basis to stay connected to your husband.
Listen, ask questions – be his partner in all aspects of your life. Things like asking how his day was when he gets home from work?Each day when he gets in from work can make a big difference. When he gets in from work and you’ll notice a big difference if you just sit and listen. Will make a huge difference to him and in return to you.
One of the most importanted things to remember is that your not alone in this marriage. Let your husband know your concerned that your not feeling as close as you would like to. Let him know how you feel, how it makes you feel and that you want to work on it.
Chances are high that your husband will have had no idea, but will now make more of an effort. Good luck!
