Oh, Amore' - My advice for real love.

Valentine's Day is coming. And with that, it has a lot of us thinking about Love.  And with Love comes relationships. With relationships comes problems.  I definitely know this first hand. The last 4 years it has been an almost full time career for my husband and I as we learn about how to keep it going and happy.  Without growth, we would've kicked each other to the curb a long time ago, because unfortunately, love is just not enough sometimes to keep you together.

Another blogger I read was asking for reader advice on how to keep your relationship happy. Of course I took this chance to share a little of what I've learned, compiled from various books and studies.  Here's what I wrote. Most of it is phrased from a women's perspective, but most could be applied to a man. Hope it can help make your Valentine's Day a little happier.


Don't insult his Mamma, that's insulting his character.

Tell him he's right before you tell him what he did wrong.

Make sure to thank him often for going to work for the family. (that is a really big deal to guys)

Kiss hello and goodbye. Every single time.

Make time for each other. Whether it's a date night (and not go to a movie together, go somewhere and actually talk to each other), or just taking time after the kids are in bed to do something you like to do together, like play a game.

Let him ramble about something you care absolutely nothing about.  (like politics), then in trade ramble about something he cares absolutely nothing about, like that great sale you found today.

Have sex even when you hate each other.

Use "I" statements not "you" statements when having fights.

Don't be afraid to tell him what you need.

Do a relationship "check up" and occasionally ask each other how you think you are doing as a couple.

Don't talk bad about your husband to your mom, your friends, the lady at the checkout. Find every chance to say something nice about him to someone else.

And always make the effort to grow and improve your marriage. It doesn't happen by itself.  I recommend "The Five Love Languages", "Love and Respect", and "Real Marriage" books.  Read them together. 

Have a church/life group or support group for when times are tough. Someone that will tell you if you are wrong.

and finally, find a good therapist.

Valentine's Day Deals: flowers, Singer, photo books, Dinner and a movie

Valentine's Day is coming up quick! There's still time to get in on an online gift idea but you'll probably need to make a quick decision if you're going to get your Valentine something that needs to be shipped.
Here's a couple of deal ideas I found for some inspiration.

Whole Living and Everyday Food by Martha Stewart $10 for one year subscription for BOTH!!  That's $.50 per issue.  Pair that with a cute little apron and some cooking utensils and you have the perfect Valentine's Day Chef/cook themed gift.  Just make sure they like to cook or they may take it as an insult that their cooking needs improvement. (wink)

Or how about flowers, Teleflora flowers 1/2 price. Pay $25 and get $50 towards Valentine's Day flowers. You can even use your $50 towards tax and shipping.

You can also get a hardcover photo book, customized with your photos from Picaboo.  Pay $15 and get $30 to spend.  Make a book that chronicles your life together in pictures!

Those were from Living Social, and they have some other great Valentine's Day ideas over at their site. Check them out.

Also if you are set on flowers, you can look at Groupon today, you can get $40 for $20.

And WOOT Woot for Woot.com bringing daily some awesome deals on some amazing products.  I especially would love this deal today for Valentine's Day, *honey*,  a Singer Serger machine for $149.  Awesome for sewing knits and finishing some beautiful hemlines, this is not for the beginning sewer, but for those who want to step their talents up to professional looking.  Remember, one day only on this one!

I'm also a sucker for a traditional date night.  Like Dinner and a Movie!! Love this deal that will get you dinner and a movie for two at 47% off. ($26 for $49)  The meal is in a certificate from Restaurant.com (which has 60 restaurants to choose from like Hangar One on W. Kellogg), and movie tickets from Hollywood Movie Money and The Warren, Northrock and Derby Plaza is included as one of their theaters!! Jump on this quick! This kind of deal is a rare find and a great one as coupons are practically non-existent for movies now days!!  Get it here from Mamasource by Mamapedia!

And don't forget to check out Groopdealz too for those younger loves in your life that may love some of the boutique and custom items they offer.  Read about Groopdealz here.

Happy Valentine's Day and keep watching my page for new deals the closer we get to Valentine's Day.  I have a feeling there will be more great deals like these on their way!!
