2. Be Romantic \u2013 the Mushier, the Merrier<\/h2>\n

Romance is just as important (if not more so) five years into a relationship, as it is during those first five weeks or so of initial infatuation and dating. You don\u2019t outgrow it; but it\u2019s something to constantly work at and have fun exploring. So be delightfully cheesy and lose yourself to sweet moments together! Light some candles. Say (or sing!) sappy things. Slow dance in your living room. And get swept up in love over and over again. It\u2019s bound to improve your marriage and melt your insides.<\/p>\n

3. Random Acts of Kindness<\/h2>\n

Sometimes the biggest messages come with the smallest gestures. Do dishes or laundry, take out the trash, walk the dog, fix dinner, draw a bubble bath, etc. Doing this for a spouse (without them asking) speaks volumes of how much you care. And will probably result in even more TLC as a thank you (*wink, wink<\/em>*).<\/p>\n
