I’m hosting my sister’s bridal shower with my aunts tomorrow.
Our seventh anniversary is Monday.
All of this has me thinking…
I’ve never been very good at flirting.
A strange train of thought, I know. Just go with it.
I must have been ok at some point as I was able to snag an amazing husband. I just don’t think I’ve ever been GOOD at it.
But I want to be.
So married ladies, I’m looking to you…
What are your best tips for flirting with your husband?
i don’t know either. I could totally use some tips. and the sad thing is when he flirts with me, i push him away b/c i feel like i’ve got so much on my mind with kids and work.
sometimes i say things like “i have a surprise for you tonight” or sometimes I just snuggle with him on the couch like a little high school couple.
I have some good ones but you do NOT want me to post them in your comments section.
Call me.
We’ll do lunch. 😉
OHHH LA LA!!!! 🙂
LOL You’re funny! How about a suggestive text message sent to him right when he gets off of work? 😉
There is a great book called “101 Ways To Tell You I Love You” and it has some great little ideas for keeping things spicy after marriage.
One thing I would recommend is TOUCHING. People don’t touch enough. And I don’t mean GROPING. But when you go out to eat, sit next to each other, not across from each other. Run your hands through his hair. Hold hands when you are driving (DMV probably doesn’t like that one, lol)
And make a pact to eat dinner together – AT THE TABLE – every single night. My husband and I both work from home, so we are literally together 24/7, but often it isnt until we all sit down at the dinner table that we even say “so how was your day?” lol
I am not good at it either, I love dressing up, or at least wearing a dress. It makes me feel good about myself, which probably boosts my confidence around my husband!
I like to send emails to him at work that say things like (I’ll keep it G-here) “I like your butt” or “guess what I’m wearing?”– things like that. Also, put on a fancier outfit (cause you always look so cute so it needs to be fancIER), and plan a spontaneous date night. 🙂
Well, for me, all I have to do is wink at the man and… well… you know.
But I’m a huge flirt with him. I wink, touch, text, steal kisses when nobody’s looking, be suggestive, cuddle, hold hands… all of it. 🙂
Hug up against him real tight, stealing glances that mean *hey how you doin’?*…but I’m not very flirty either. 🙂
I’ve been married to the best man on earth for 30 years. Still seems like yesterday. What a sweet question – and I’m loving the answers too! I call my husband in the middle of the day, or text or email him.
He does love it when I “dress up” (no gals, a dress, really a dress!) and put on make-up. Because he knows it’s for him. We hold hands still and steal kisses.
Every Friday is “date night” and we don’t let anything on the calendars that we can control for those Fridays. All we might do is go out to eat, or bring take-home, but no phones get answered, no errands ran…nothing other than each other. (Some times he parks in the driveway and comes to the door to “pick me up”).
oh, and it really is true about the way to a man’s heart is his stomach… when he knows you did all that for him, it speaks volumes.
