\u201cI wish you were more romantic!\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ever heard those words? If you\u2019re like most husbands, I\u2019ll bet you have. Probably more than once. Those worlds are about as pleasant as \u201cYou need to take a shower!\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it. Most of us have only a vague idea of what romance is really about\u2014and what it means to our wives. Besides, who has time to be Romeo when the kids have tuition classes and the demands from the office never let up?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fortunately, romancing your wife isn\u2019t as complicated\u2014or as time consuming\u2014as we make it out to be. In fact, I\u2019ve stumbled across something that eliminates the guesswork and stress: Romantic Rituals.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What is a romantic ritual? It is a simple act you do on a regular basis to let your wife know how much she matters to you. Creating a romantic ritual is one of the best ways to touch your wife\u2019s heart while you work a job and raise a family!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My wife Sarah and I have done one such ritual since the early days of our relationship. At a meal, we give thanks and pray before eating, and right after that, we kiss. It doesn\u2019t take much effort but it conveys to Sarah that she is special to me.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"breakfast-in-bed\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The simple act has an even bigger impact when I do it in public. She gets the message that I delight in her and want others to know it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Other examples of romantic rituals I have been told are:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
