Blake R. Templeton argues that constant criticism kills playfulness in marriage. He proposes naming three things you admire about your spouse each day, claiming this habit shift transforms how you feel and improves the relationship.
Now, we forget this when you're burning the candle at both ends. A woman's playfulness dies when appreciation from you is silent. Like, your criticism amplifies flaws. So what you've got to realize is gratitude amplifies beauty. So instead of pointing out what's wrong, stop that. Complete what I call a daily appreciation exercise. Always, every day, name 3 things you admire about her. Change the way you think, you'll change the way you feel. And that's actually how you want to feel anyway.
