11 - Love cherishes
What need does your spouse have that you could meet today? Can you run an errand? Give a back rub or foot massage? Is there housework you could help with? Choose a gesture that says, “I cherish you” and do it with a smile.

Triston woke up with posion ivy and i took off work to take care of him them Candise met us for breakfast then we did some shopping she wanted some drier sheets while she was at her lash apt i filled her tank up and bought her the drier sheets
She was gone this past weekend (Apr. 5-7), so I took my spare time after work and cleaned and took care of the house, instead of playing xbox like I usually do. I choose to cherish her time and effort. I will make this a habit.
i was able to touch her hands and bring her to work. patience and prayer works
She went out with her friends last night and come home late and very sleepy. I hug her and pray for her this morning
Has this really worked for anyone? I can't stand to hear and see how he does not love me any more. I did not realize how bad we were until he made it clear it is to late and he wants to separate.
I'm struggling with day 10 and 11. My wife and I are separated. I feel discouraged and like I'm failing at this, because I can't physically do anything for her.
I'm struggling with day 10 and 11. My wife and I are separated. I feel discouraged and like I'm already failing at this because I can't physically do anything for her.
I've gone through this several times now. it's so hard to complete the dares with something new, when it's what I'm already doing.
it seems to continue to get harder . I just want to be acknowledged or just simply touched. it's like I'm alone . I'm losing hope with each day
I have done everything to the best i can. I dont see anything is going to work. She has emotionally disconnected from me years ago from anger from what I told her. Only sees me as a person living together.
Day 11 was difficult as hubby was busy packing to go on a trip for work, my insecurity was hectic, so scared he would fall into temptation. I tried to help with some of the packing but not sure he noticed.
I seem to be stuck on the last two days. I feel very demotivated. I know I am doing this for myself but I really just wish he would make an effort to save our marriage as well. I wish there was a way to know that this is worth fighting for.
I'm literally stuck on this one and have been for the past 4 days.
today I drove hour and half to get his coffee drinks since there was no stores around here that currently has them. I messaged him and asked him if I could get him anything he says WHY
Does giving them space count because if so she gets plenty of that. She leaves every night when I get home and says she is goin to the beach to do her Bible Study, but is gone for hours.
While reading this dare, i released how i've, stop caring the way i used too. With small gesture, rubbing her feet. Today, that's all i want to do. God pls forgive me, for not studying my wife the way i should have!
picked up his favorite drink on my way home and made cookies, timed them to be fresh out of the oven when he came thru the door. He went straight for them with a huge smile. <3
I fixed his bowl for him for dinner and had it ready on the table with something to drink. It's something I do fairly frequently, but today I did it with a smile and a kiss. He seemed to appreciate it a lot.
God is answering prayers. He came home rewashed the clothes in the wash that I had washed last night, took out the trash, and swept the floor all while the kids and I were still asleep.
got in a huge fight last night and he keeps playing victim saying he is g good for me and I deserve better but he won't end things cus he wants me to be the 1 to do it which isn't fair
how do I do this when she has already divorced me? ideas or suggestions?
tried it... he is too consumed with his cell phone. trying hard to complete the 40 days.
I don't know how to do some of these. we live separately and he will not communicate so I don't know what his needs are. How do you proceed is a situation like this?
I bought my wife a chocolate cream pie and a nice bottle of wine for her that we enjoyed when she got home from work and then I gave her a foot message, I've never done that for her before, and then we talked afterwards it was a very good night.
I'm separated from my partner. I believe it is Gods will, he is doing a work in me and sorting me, so I can be at my best. Make sure you are FOLLOWING GODS will.
we talked. told me she's not wanting anything more. wants to get out of debt and then divorce.
miss my wife really bad today. today is my youngest daughters bday and we normal video chat her together. she did call so I'm happy that my baby girl got to hear from her bonus mom
done but still not good enough or the way he would have done it. im seriously giving up. I cant function at this point.
Do this almost every night while she sleeps in her chair and then gets up and goes to her bed😪
so far this is making a huge difference! its like we are dating again. I just hope this can last!
my spouse needed some dinner so I order up some pizza and spent qt with him playing a game.
Done
Useful
Perfect for any relationship...
Today is a hard day, silent treatment continues to be given. Didnt respond to my messages but asked for money to go painting. Trying hard but not breaking through. Took care of minor chores I know she doesnt like doing.
Lord, help me do this without feeling like I should be the one getting this treatment. I do everything in the house...
yesterday and today was and will be a good day. she is moving back into our home! I am still going to continue doing this. I dont want to stop. I want our family complete and to feel the love that we all have for each other!
Day by day is getting harder, my wife and I still living at the same roof, separate room and every night I can heard her talking to a man. it break my heart and want to give up, but this is not want Jesus want me to do. 😭😔
I am doing everything from texting him good morning have a good day.. I am doing everything amd I am not getting any kind of response from him. she is sending him pictures and he is sending pictures. he doesn't know if he wants to be with me.
my husband and I are still living together but he is talking to a another female on her FB it shows she is also married. I have asked him about it and he says they are just friends.
Finally a dare that is easy for me. Space. She wants space and no contact. This i can do, hopefully
This was a hard one as a husband. Does anyone really love themselves? I mean we are selfish and self centered. So what i had to accept is that I was loved and forgiven by God. So then and only then could I pass that love on to my wife.
I can relate to you and know the feeling but you have to hang in there and keep on doing the dare.
I try different things with my husband asking him do you need anything just wish he grabs and kiss me tell me im beautiful I try my best to look beautiful for myself but he does not notice m anymore feel like im a ghost
When i show my husband different things like asking him do you need something to drink or are you hungry or just to ask him do you need anything you know
Finally was able to get him an anniversary gift. I chose something that I personally loathe but that he loves... A new T.V.!
I came back from the dr. appointment I talk to her about are daughter appointment and told her i am on board with having a healthy eating lifestyle ibmade a healthy dinner for them tonight
I am also taking the kids out so she has time to study for her exam tonight i felt peace in her in when she smiled
I went up to her in front of my kids i grabbed her by the arms i told her i cherish you and everything you do and I love you i gave her a kiss on the cheek I took my daughter to dr appointment
