Marriage Tips by Yvette R. Toko #4: "Sweet Mouth"



Have you heard the saying that goes, "you can draw more flies with honey than vinegar?"  There may be some truth to this.  We all like to hear nice words coming from our family, colleagues, and spouses.  Flattery goes a long way with someone as long as it's sincere. 

If you want to spruce up your pillow talk or even give the love of your life a pep in their step, try using affirming words. There are 103 examples; perhaps, several of them are worth recycling to carry you through the year.

Here are a few examples of affirmations (#5-9) that you can say to your husband: "I really appreciate you. When you listened to me, you made me feel loved.  You are my man! You are my protector.  You are awesome!"

For the husbands who are so inclined to venture, here are a few examples of affirmations (#2-6) that you can say to your wife: "You are beautiful. You make me want to be a better man. Thanks for your faithfulness to our family. You are a godly woman.  I've learned a lot from you.”
How about making it a 30 day challenge to shower your beloved with words of affirmation.  Come on, you can do it, I know you can.
