SUMMARY:Appreciate what you have, before it turns in to something you had
DESCRIPTION:It can be incredibly awkward for men to talk about feelings, the feels, the soft bits.\nIn relationships often we defer to what happens in the bedroom or some\nphysical gift or provision to show our caring nature.\nThis challenge for me exposes vulnerabilities as I wanted to run this with\nno expectation of receiving the same in return (hence the extension of the\nchallenge to be that from your partner too!).\nI often forget to mention what is is a actually love about my wife, and as days\nrun in to busy days that run in to endless hours of childcare, school runs, work\nand house chores, it can be easy to forget why we are in this relationship in\nthe first place; what was it we actually like about each other when we first got\ntogether all those years ago?!\nA conscious effort to look at this does me, and our relationship, the world of\ngood. For me, it’s also easy to really go over the top on this exercise. I’m sure\nwe’ve all seen friends or those on social media who endlessly and publicly\nespouse their love for each other only to end up unhappy, arguing or worse\n– separating.\nI didn’t want to set the bar so high that I had to keep up this appearance of\nchildish love and adoration. Sometimes, my wife irritates me. Sometimes, she\ncan wind me up and sometimes I wish she’d do things differently. But this is\nlike the weather; short term bursts of rain clouds do not make a long term\nclimate.\nTake a risk, expose yourself to vulnerability and dare to share why you love\nyour partner or someone in your social circle. Chances are the person on the\nreceiving end is feeling the same push and pull of daily life and to offer this as\na gift won’t only make you feel better having done it but it will no doubt help\nthe partnership and the person receiving it.\nWe can do it!\n
