My husband and I have been blissfully married for over 30 years. We still have fun flirting with each other; we still feel like newlyweds in some ways (totally crazy in love with each other). I enjoyed reading The Flirtation Experiment and realized that I have already been implementing these same or similar ideas/tips in my marriage. The Flirtation Experiment is written by two Christian women, Lisa Jacobson and Phylicia Masonheimer. The former has been married for 27 years and the latter has been married for five years. The authors share from their own personal experiences of doing the flirtation experiment. The book lists thirty ways of flirting with your husband. Some chapters also include the reactions from the authors' husbands. I appreciate the authors' authenticity and vulnerability. They are not shy away from including awkwardness, insecurities, struggles, and unexpected challenges. Overall, the authors, their husbands, and their marriages benefit from their Flirtation Experiment, so they want to invite others to try the experiment and be more intentional in pursuing their husbands. If you are looking for creative ways to foster closeness and connection, playfulness and passion, affection and affirmation, romance and respect in your marriage, this is a wonderful resource for you. I highly recommend this insightful and practical book that can help make your marriage deeper, richer, and sweeter.

ReplyDeleteI have two tips to share!
#1 Get individual toothpaste tubes. Because nobody needs the drama about what the right way to squeeze the tube is.
#2 Don't let a mild headache hold you back from some special couple time. It can often be just the stress/tension relief needed!
Oh,I forgot that you asked for my email. Yeayea83@yahoo.com
DeleteExperimenting in the bedroom can be scary but is often worth it to bring new pleasure to your spouse and to deepen intimacy. If a risk is taken and you are not both fans, you can always laugh it off later with a "well, at least we tried something new!" approach.
ReplyDeleteAlong the newness line, we try not to eat out at just the same old spots we fall in love with, because dating should be exciting and it's fun to try new stuff and also support businesses together that we can then recommend to our friends.
