The Lovedare

3 - Love is not selfish
Roamns 12 vs 10 : Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another

Whatever you put your time, energy, and money into will become more important to you. Itโ€™s hard to care for something you are not investing in. Along with restraining from negative comments, buy your spouse something that says, 'I was thinking of you today.'

it is hard to comunicate with her when she won't check her phone but it is all up to God.



I brough him lunch despite him not talking to me the past couple of days. Even though i did try and communicate with to see if he wanted something different than what I was gonna get him but he didnt reply to me



i bought her a coffee from her favorite shop. she said she didnt need it and i needed to savw money. i feel like ir did norhing.



I got her one of her faborite meals which made her quite happy. Though it was short lived and now its back to sitting staring at the phone.



Im always thinking of my husband and I also let him everyday that I love him everytime he calls I let him know



I need help, this challenge talk more about me than about anotger person. My God, how difficult it is. I pray a lot and I need God in my life daily.

Community reply
The steps can be hard. But it show us who we are and what love is truly is. Keep up the good work.


I bought her a chocolate and she accepted it, but later got more mad when I talked to her mom. She then told me not to call her love and that she will find a way to come up with money and file a divorce.



**WIN



bought her the monster she likes on my way home for work and i paided her phone bill and paid for our date completely.

day 3: Short on time before he leaves out on truck so ran to $ store and got 2 cards that I wrote personal notes in, gift bags, sour candy(helps him stay awake), redbulls, and coke zeros. I put them in his truck..noticed codems..urgh



Bought her favorite meal only to realize that she is parking to leave with the kids tomorrow...๐Ÿคฆ

Community reply
Having kids in the mix makes it so much harder. I bought her a basket of her favorite things. Hopefully she receives it well.


Today is a rollar coaster with him today. I'm trying my best not to argue back at him. and he expects me to argue back. I'm just sad cause I thought he would have appreciated what I did for him today but I can tell he didn't. That hurt so much.

Community reply
I'm expecting great things as well I hope the Lord touches my heart and changes me and through my testimony can when my husband
Community reply
how weird is this. my day ended the exact same. When he wanted me close, I was there, but he was not satisfied so then he wanted space, I gave it to him and he was not satisfied. it came to the point where he realized I am not picking and giving him the fight he seeks. he ended up saying " Its not you its me". the hurt is unimaginable. but as the Lord works through you, he definitely will make sure your spouse sees the change.


I gaver her some Hersey kisses, then i gave her some real kisses.. Then we slow dance to 40s music and she loved it! I think today was a total success! Praise God for another day! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ



today was hard i drove two hours to bring her flowers and brandon she was having bad day she smiled i got that look i haven't seen in along time god is good but i know it going to be hard not to Suffocate her



things are going well but ONLY by Gods grace! thank You Jesus.

Community reply
Hey there ๐Ÿ‘‹ I'm new year. I don't have any husband yet. But, I have a fiancรฉ. He's also not a perfect guy but he's a Christian. Both of us are still a working progress. And real love always do involved struggles and testings. But here's how comforting a relationship be if Jesus Christ is always the center of it โ€” nothing is impossible. Have a good day. God bless you. โ˜บ๏ธโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’•
Community reply
give her time. she's honestly probably just hurt and gaurded and nervous to open back up yet. be patient with God


I have buy her hair curler last week



My situation is a bit challenging in that my wife feels like we started wrong and we don't have historical memories to go back to. and she's right for the most part. I'd appreciate some advice.



Been always romantic to my husband and still praying that soon one day he will also be a sweet, thoughtful, loving husband to me.

Community reply
Hi there ๐Ÿค— I'm new here. Hope you're well and safe. I honestly admired your good qualities as a wife. I, myself, am also sweet as well to my fiancรฉ now (soon future husband). And even if he also reciprocated my simple gestures of love ๐Ÿ’ž, still both of us are a working progress. And we all need Jesus for that. Just submit to God everything, pray for your husband and continue loving him despite of his imperfections. God bless you. โ˜บ๏ธโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’•


all I can say to you is that remember back in the day when you guys first fell in love and how great it was remember what he loved then then you'll know what to buy him



Today I have one on one conversation with My wife and open our hearts to each other. I will still continue with this Love dare



My husband is the one who wronged me. But he hates himself for it and has become hard hearted. Out of my hurt i have been very mean to him. So I am doing this dare. He knows nothing about it. I dont know what to buy him.



we r on a tight budget and anything I do or say he gets mad at me wat should I do because I don't have a job but he does

Community reply
You can always make something for him. Get Creative like remember those paper flowers made in kindergarten. "hint,hint ๐Ÿซก


Was able to get my wife some items she needed but wasent exspexting. anxiety today was better than last few days. I feel we are working in a positive direction. but it will take time to rebuild our bond.



she was thankful for the gift. but still hurts. im not giving up with time. im fighting all the way no matter the outcome.



is it wrong to call one partner out if they agree to do the dare with you and they stop? ive been doing to extra study, been doing the stuff for each day and trying to go to church but he has been working at it to keep me from going.

Community reply
i think the dare is more about controlling what you can control which is you ๐Ÿ–ค


i bought his favorite candy but sadly have to wait until he returns in 11 days to visit. this job keeping him 4 hours away is really hard to handle. i miss him to the point i feel sick.

Community reply
I understand. My husband also works a lot and away. I have been very lonely. It has effected our marriage. I have been trying to learn how to find comfort in God and not my husband. It is hard


got my wife red roses (i love you) and wanted white roses as well for new beginnings and humility but they didnt have any. didnt matter was told its to little to late

Community reply
its ok keep with it.


got my wife red roses ( i love you) and wanted white roses as well for new beginnings and humility but they didnt have any. didnt matter was told its to little to late



. it's hard for me to sit... funny thing, the moment I sat, my hubby said, I love you. โค๏ธ Quality time, being present, is a present to him. After 16 years, Im beginning to understand him.



day 3. bought my wife flowers and a recipe book(she loves trying out new dishes). got no response, no conversation. I guess thats to be expected, or maybe not. I'm pressing on to day 4.



he is always angry, I pray for God to soften his heart.



my husband return my call today. what a blessed day it is for me. may this never stop.



Day 3: it's really a blessed day for me,my husband called me. woow... am so happy that I can't stop smiling and dancing too.God be praise. May this continue everyday



my Day 3 went so blessed. am so happy cos my husband made me to smile and dance too. I pray it continues like this forever



Day 3 It went great! He bought me a cute lil Always & Forever house knickknack and I bought him a lil notebook to go with his bible for church.



he brought me some earrings yesterday but he still hates me.this ain't working



my husband is incarcerated right now so I put money on his books and tomorrow I. going to surprise him with his wedding band at the jail.



Its very very hard to love someone who always think about himself first but I still do the assignment.

Community reply
God i know the feeling


i know the feeling



I don't deserve my wife. I wish at this stage that I did not exist. The rejection is killing me to the point that I do not want to live anymore.

Community reply
i feel the exact same. threw my chances away and now im doing everything i can to fix my massive mistakes with no avail and its killing me.
Community reply
I did this a couple of years ago i felt hopeless. My wife and I are still together. I am back in the same place i was then. Once you get closer to the end of the Dare you will realize its not about your wife. From day one it is helping you learn how to serve God. I was going to do the Dare over and over again. I didn't I have stopped serving God. Stop focusing on your spouse let God change you. I know your struggle and so does God.
Community reply
life is a gift .love yourself
Community reply
i feel the same..

Community reply

this was a little harder for me, because i kinda do this on my own anyway; but in respect of whole heartedly give this my all i went out and got her, her favorite badtime snack



a photo will do jb



This is a hard task. I don't think you should have to buy anything. just do something you think your spouse would like.



i bought her a little stuffed puppy and added a note to it expressing what i feel inside and set it in front of the coffee pot and even set everything up for her to have coffee this morning. no response ๐Ÿ˜”



day 3 i bought her a little stuffed puppy and added a note to it expressing what i feel inside and set it in front of the coffee pot and even set everything up for her to have coffee this morning. no response ๐Ÿ˜”



3 of 3: I can't think of anything to buy that he would appreciate and/or need. The act of love that seems most fitting for today is completing chores around the house. I guess that's okay???

Community reply
anything will be ok. your love language must be acts of service. ๐Ÿฅฐ that's a good one. study your spouse's as well and then you will know how to really show your love in their language


2 of 3: Saturday I paid for gas, his cigarettes, and his chew on our way home from Christmas shopping date night. Yesterday we went out to eat with his parents and cousin after Mass, I paid the bill because he paid our dinner Saturday.



1 of 3: Today is my day 3 of this exercise. It says to buy your spouse something that makes you think of them. I ordered a couple things for Christmas over the weekend.



we on day 3, things are amazing part of that i feel none of my messages is getting a response i want or immediately. there is always work this and work that, that gets the priority. im questioning my efforts here. we both are in medical

so I made it to love their number 3 on August 24th that same day my wife filed for divorce we had been separated since June 28th she came from an abusive past and I think she feels like I was stalking her



what do you do when the person you are doing this for is already seeing someone else... but you know. or pray at least they are just rebounding.



Day 3 was great. I didn't buy any beer for him, even tho thats what he love the most. My gift was letting his friend come by to have bible study. He loved it. He shared what they read about with me๐Ÿ˜Š

Community reply
I was just trying to figure out what to buy for mine. We are on a tight budget and tools are too expensive! Thanks for the idea! I'm gonna buy him his favorite beer!


Instead of buying something, recorded me singing a song that's been on my mind lately and sent him via email. He was surprised and touched and said he'd keep it forever.



I bought him something he needed now he wants to buy me something 100 times more expensive I said no. Was this the wrong move

Community reply
it's not the expense that counts. it's what's in your hearts. let him buy it if he wants because love is given and received.


i order him something. he wont be there until 5 days. he is still not talking to me. trying not to call him and tell him to talk to me is still hard.

Community reply
I'll be praying for you both. It's hard to be shut out. But keep praying and have faith that his heart will be softened.


today was tough i was the punching bag. couldnt do anything right but thats ok imma keep going

Community reply
it gets really bad sometimes, it's not called a dare for nothing that's for sure. but just stick thru it. it's the tests we gave that lead to testimony later. but more then that your proving your commitment, for better or worse. one day at a time. I know it's cliche but it's true.


My husband is on a work trip and will only be able to see him again on Friday. This Love dare has been helping us alot. Any suggestions on how I can still show him I care and love him. Cause I cant buy him soemthing because he is not here

Community reply

Community reply
Call him periodically just to say "I love you".


My husband is on a work trip and I will only see him Friday. Any suggestions how I can do todays love dare to still show him i care and think about him PS Megan

how are things going pray the hedge of thorns from hosea


upsate yall: my wife and i burned our divorce papers and im on day 3 . she still has no idea . im not saying were in the clear but its a huge moment in the right direction . god is Good all the time

Community reply
Yay! This is wonderful, so happy for you and saying a prayer that things keep going well!


My marriage needs a lot of help. Is this something I should show him and ask him to do with me? Or am I supposed to do this on my own without telling him in hopes it sparks something and fixes where we are headed?

Community reply
Either way, do it for yourself and he might see the changes and would most likely to rill over to him. Doing it together, he must be interested and willing. Otherwise it will not work


My husband and I are in a really good spot. Is anyone else doing this from that angle? I pray for all of you that are going through rough times. I hope this challenge brings you closer in your marriage.



I'm 43/44ish and all my life I've been really shy when it comes to sex. I couldn't even say P*** or D*** without feeling some kind of way. I've said all that to say how do I get more sex outta my husband?

Community reply
you meed to step out of your comfort zone and tell him that you want him to make love to you. if you want something then all you need to do is ask.. or look over at him touch his chest and stomach and say "sexy time?" lol it works. throw him off andit will turn him on
Community reply
well don't say p.... or d... for starters nobody's wants to hear there wife speaking that way.

Community reply
thanks I'll give it a shot
Community reply
Have you guys thought about romance shopping together? You definitely want to do whats comfortable for you even if that means no words just grabbing his hand and leading him to what you want.


ive been caught cheating not the first time shes hurt which is to be expected we are trying to work on things now theres a strange man says she isnt doing anything but talking and that she cant control him pursing her and that im selfish

Community reply
hey Patrick I know how it feels my wife of 20+years left me because I was being stupid and dumb i figured she would never leave me . she moved out and served me with papers . and after the shock and anger subsided a little bit . I started to realize it was my fault that this had happened and it would be me that would stop it . you have to apologize for what u did to her and than SHOW her with actions that you love her and are willing to let god take over .you should ask god forgiveness ask him to help lead you . and if it is gods will it will happen you will start to walk with god and her heart will soften but YOU have to make this choice and i know this sounds bad but even if it doesn't work out between you and her you will still be a better person for what you did and will become by walking with the lord . .
Community reply
Good afternoon sir, this is very much a defining moment it would seem. What are you willing to change about yourself. At this present time look at things from her perspective, your words hold no weight, not trying to condemn you. At this point your actions must definitely match your intentions. I will not say its hopeless, remember God always has the final say, but this is where you dig in and dig deep and figure out how much you love her and what are you willing to put down for God and for her. Make God the center of your home. A man's job is more than just provider. It is also, priest, protector, father, faithful husband. We have to be multifaceted. On the basis of her and an interest understand this that you must change in order for things to change. I would highly recommend the movie, Fireproof for you. With that being said you are here because you see the need and the want to change. Just remember to lean on God and make sure you put him first and ask him for the strategies for rebuilding your love and your home. Unless God builds the house a man labors in vain. Have a very blessed day sir. Stay strong!
Community reply
for asking her to stop and a narcissist for being hurt by it. feels like im fighting a losing battle but i guess i brought this on my self 13 years almost and ive lost my partner


ive been caught cheating not the first time shes hurt which is to be expected we are trying to work on things now theres a strange man says she isnt doing anything but talking and that she cant control him pursing her



wife kicked me out a month ago. been very hard times

Community reply
Definitely lean on God I totally understand what you are feeling. Just remember to stay on top of things, use this time to grow closer to God and become the man that you and she needs. Take the transformation seriously and push through. Rooting for you sir. You will see God's hand in things as you lean in him and grow closer to him.


I'm his Queen he is my king!

Community reply
How did the challenge go?


I keep thinking this is hopeless. i just want a sign or look oe anythinh that gives me hope its not over. i keep getting frustrated irritated. i want so badly to talk but if we attempt to talk an arguement arrises almost instantly.

Community reply
im in the same place. ive decided im not going to stop praying for him for me and for us. God is in control. ive begged for a sign. as hard as this is i have no choice but to trust him and be patient i know thats not much help. this is the hardest most painful thing ive felt but i have to trust God
Community reply
This is where you definitely want to do your beat to trust God. Arguing isn't the absence of love, its actually proven that it means that you guys do love each other. People don't argue with people they don't love. Also I think what you guys need is a safe space, with proper communication, basically a debate without the below the belt hits. Pray for your spouse, pray for yourself and as you grow closer to God allow him to work unhindered by you. He knows what he's doing let him help. As you continue to grow closer to him and allow him to renew your mind you will gain deeper understanding. Remember faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Allow him to also help build your faith.


day 3.. though.

Community reply
its been 5 days since he last said i love you to me... 5 days since he has kissed me or hugged me. and yes day 3 though... he slept in the guest room... its not just day 3 its everything at the same time thank you for your comment but next time dont


I need prayer for my wife to come back. she is cheating on me with a guy in nigeria and i am fighting for her and our kids. I love her so much!

Community reply
In this case you want to begin to pray and grow closer to God. Beleive and know that he hears your prayers and that he is a big advocate of marriage. God hates divorce. With that being said keep praying and allowing God to work as you push through the challenges and also grow closer to him that he may transform you and you can also become better for her also. Pray for his strength as you endure this fight.


My wife and I need prayer. She is cheating on me with a guy in nigeria and i need it to stop for our family. I am fighting for her and our kids but need help

Community reply
I love this idea. It's heartfelt..you're taking the time to do something meaningful. Kudos to you both. ๐Ÿ™‚
Community reply
Hey it's always the thought and the motives that count.


Pray for me that I take the courage to shut things down in the evening and engage her in conversation. This is a major part of our disconnect. I'm on day 3.

Community reply
Keep pressing on through. It's like back when you started dating, to win her heart all over again, showing your commitment to her.
Community reply
Definitely being present in the moment is a big key in every relationship. The fact that you are self aware and willing to put in the extra effort is awesome. You got this sir!


After taking time in prayer, I went out early yesterday and my wife a cup of coffee. Atually, a caramel macchiato. She's working hard and invoicing for her company and she was pleasantly surprised.

Community reply
Sounds awesome.. you go sir!


i bought him a special treat to leave with a note. I'm actually going to put it in his lunchbox to find in the morning.we are 20 years of marriage last October.it's been ups and downs of course.hes very affectionate.i am not.that's where we fight.

Community reply
Just remember his love language sometimes also. As a man that is affectionate in that manner I must say it matters sometimes. I pray you guys can come to a compromise. Great job btw!!


Can anyone read this comment?

Community reply
Thanks! I wasn't sure it was working.
Community reply
yup
Community reply
Yes


i am lost as what to get him. hold on to God to save this marriage

Community reply
Is there anything that you have seen him in need of? Maybe his favorite food for lunch or dinner? Maybe a tool to help him in his day.


Day 3 is tomorrow. He told me 5 days ago that he is moving out end of Jan filing for divorce. Nothing but arguing for months. Tonight we talked just about news but at least we talked.

Community reply
Sorry that has happened abruptly. Definitely pray and seek God's council. Keep doing your dares. You will get through this ok. Try to stay strong, pray for yourself, your spouse, and your children.
Community reply
he told our daughter tonight that he's leaving. Opened a bank account. Said he's relieved to know he's leaving. I'm broken but will continue with daily dares.
Community reply
Awesome keep fighting and keep praying. Let God help to heal those dry places. Even small blessings count. Do your best to also grow closer to God in the process and make him the rock in which yall rebuild upon. Also


Awesome brother! Keep up the good fight sir.



Awesome brother! Keep up the good fight.



day 3 i bought him a card as i didn't have a chance to get him anything else. as far as i know he hasn't read it yet. he's still sending me texts griping about my daughter. its on his pillow, and he's on the bedroom.

Community reply
Keep praying for your spouse and your family. Great job on the card its the thought that counts. Just give him time to get to it.


day three and she found out I was doing The Love Dare last night hope it doesn't affect her receiving it

Community reply
Hoping that it inspires her and she will see your effort. Its commendable that you started on your own to be able to change for her. I admire you sir. Godbless and pray all is well in your marriage. Keep fighting and remember to put God at the center. Build your marriage on the rock!


day 3 went so good. a teddy and flowers. he said thank you!

Community reply

Community reply
Sounds awesome!!!


I have hurt my wife so deeply that I don't know if this will work for us. I'm going to do it anyway because I hope at a minimum it will change me for the better. Day 1 was easy. She rejected my attempts at day 2. Please pray.

Community reply
wow I love this
Community reply
Remember that God is the God of all flesh also. He holds the hearts of Kings in his hands. With that being said, seek his face and let him mold you, get closer to him so he can show you a different version of yourself. With that being said if it is his will he will unlock her heart.Just understand, better yourself and grow closer to God all while being repentant and faithful if you are fighting. It's not easy but it's worth it.


I actually got a thank you from my wife today. it really out me over the moon.

Community reply
Awesome brother! Keep up the good fight sir.
Community reply
Awesome!!!
Community reply
Amen


Doing this was pleasant. I gave him money for a pair of shoes he has been looking into for a long while. His comment was, is it that important to you? I could see and sense that he felt that I cared about him and what concerns him.

Community reply
Doing good things unfortunately will take time to effect a spouse in a positive way. Do NOT let this discourage you. Press forward and have faith. Goidness will prevail.


This might be hard for me to do. He just started working. I'm broke. although, last Friday he bought me a pair of shoes since i only own flip flops and i grabbed some for him as well. i told him he's been working hard and deserves nice things too.

Community reply
yeah I'm in between welding jobs so i am broke. but i did use the card and get groceries for the house. i got her some gum and cookies. no thank yous, but no fighting though. i don't know if I'm making progress or not
Community reply
Well done.


the fear that he will leave again. I barely survived the first month.

Community reply
Faith, Hope and Love ... you need to remind yourself that God will be by your side every step of the way. remember to keep the Faith always have Hope and never loose your love

Community reply
I would say yes.


hardes thing to do is the right thing when your mate is not. Lord Give me Strength, and please, God please. Get his attention.

Community reply

Community reply

gave my wife a short that I thought she would really like. the shirt said " just a regular mom raising lions not sheep" didn't get the response I'd hope for. It even might not fit her right...

Community reply
It's the thought that counts. Try to have a more positive mindset. Also pray and let God help you plan, he can show you just the right thing.


How can you show your husband you love him if he is emotionally unavailable and he is involved with someone else?? I am trying the dares but it is hard living apart and he is not interested. He keeps pushing me away.

Community reply
You do the dare for yourself. This will give you the strength and guidance you need to move ahead. The purpose of the dare is NOT to change them, but to change and better yourself. Thru you, they will change. Prayers your way.


how can you show your husband you love him, if he is emotionally unavailable and involved with someone else? I am trying the dares but it's hard living apart and he is showing no interest.

Community reply
Like in the movie Fireproof she did not want anything to do with her husband. She to was involved with someone else. But the love of God showed through him and she changed her ways and fell back in love with her husband in the end.


I've been fighting the need to escape tge emotional abuse for a year. Were making one last effort with this, yet hes not taking it seriously. I'm loosing hope. I want to fix it for our family but it takes two. Praying for guidance.

Community reply
Do this for YOU. As he sees the change in you, he will then change as well. Keep up the praying and the faith as well.


I really couldnt buy him nothing because of the drugs bit sent his brother some money for him in case he was hungry or needs smokes

Community reply
I'm sorry you walked into that, but do this dare for yourself if anything. God will give you the strength and guidance you need. My prayers go out to you.

Nice!!! way to look on the bright side and the Discovery of God is a very big blessing! Her developing the relationship with him is going to bless her life.


I feel since he's not really doing maybe it doesn't matter I don't know will decuss in counciling

Community reply
You definitely gotta keep doing this for you if anything.


I did that today as well as doing yesterday's

Community reply
Great job! keep applying the days!


u got my husband a beautiful card. but mind keeps being attacked by things he's done in the past please help me pray that they stop. lord cover my mind with your blood.

Community reply
Also with the mind you have to face it and accept that it did happen or something's didnt.. ask God for strength and clarity in the mind. Prayers up!
Community reply
Like a Pastor once told me forgiveness is a 2 part thing you forgive the person, then you forgive yourself for holding on to it, another way to look at it would be like drinking poison and waiting on the other person to die. With that being said it is also a good practice to pray and ask God to help you forgive and release that. Not saying that it makes it ok, just you guys have to rebuild and put God first.


I got him a m&m mix of his favorites

Community reply
it doesn't take much to break the ice. Good work and keep up the prayers.


I got him chocolate milk which he loves. He's so cute.

Community reply
Its definitely the thought that counts. Godbless.
Community reply
As I said above. Keep up the praying and let God work His will.


I've started this road to late according to my wife, as she has said she no longer loves me and doesn't even want to fix it. I'm just Praying God's will be done and helps me to show her how I truly do love her.

Community reply
Thank you for your words of encouragement friend.
Community reply
That's the satan inside your wife talking, keep moving forward. God will remove that in time. Pray for Him to bring her love back to the surface and to help guide her.


This is really hard to do alone. Especially when my Husband left in my car to see the other woman. God please give me strength to get through this. I want my marriage to be saved and for him to come back to me and the kids.

Community reply
thank you everyone for the support it is really really hard and my depression is getting worse
Community reply
Continue the Dare if anything for yourself and the kids
Community reply
I hadn't thought of it like that. I dont know if I would be ok. I just put my marriage in Gods hands. I love him so much and dont want to lose him
Community reply
Pray for him.. I know you going through it. Stay strong for the kids. Pray God also gives you counsel and patience also.
Community reply
I'm sorry you're going through this. would you be ok if he came back to you and the kids but his heart never came back? what if he comes back and is only physically present but mentally he is longing to be with her and only there thinking its the right thing to do? I can tell you that cuts too.


when your apart and she won't accept anything from you is tough. I did it though and it shows her I care

Community reply
Yes it does.. great job sir!


He finally read the card that I gave him... This weekend we are going camping at the beach.

Community reply
Congrats..rooting for you guys!!!


Instead of buying something, if decided to to care for the boys, they are worth more then anything, and i need to show her i love them awell, even though i don't show it always. I've received this guidance from our God almighty tonight! โค๏ธ



we have fought like cats and dogs since I started this "3" days ago, it's really been hard

Community reply
Actually the reason for the fights is due to someone trying to change for the better and it fears them. Continue your path and pray for guidance for them.
Community reply
You guys spend more time in prayer as you have your disagreements before and after and you should start to see some changes. Also ask God to be an umpire in your situations.. yall got this!.


I was at work yesterday and I brought a card saying I'm thinking of you.... when he came in this morning he didn't bother to look at it just ask where this come from and threw it down on the table like he didn't want it.

Community reply
don't let the fact that he put the card down discourage you. anger takes time to leave, but rest assured that he saw it and it touched his heart. keep going!
Community reply
thank you. Ok
Community reply
Don't let that bother you. Press on even if it's for your own sanity. Pray hard for him and ask for guidance. Remember it took time getting to this point, it will take time to repair it. My prayers go out to you.


I couldn't do the the second day as me and my wife is currently living at different places, but would it work if I do day 2 and day 3 together



Hubby came up to my work today on my lunch break. there's a playground next to our building so he brought our daughter to run and play for a while. I brought him a soda and some snacks, and he showed appreciation for them.

Community reply
wow! great to read that. enjoy these moments.
Community reply
Great news. Keep up the prayers.


I dont work so i dont have money as hubby controls the finances so I'll make something out of love for him

Community reply
Perfect, it means more than anything from a store


I pray every day for this because it's in our nature to be selfish beings.



He brought me dinner to let me know he thank me for helping him today



he accomplished on me doing a good job on the steps.



Day 3 went well. We're still getting along okay, still a long way to go to affection, etc but praying it's possible in the future. Still wondering if there's someone else but praying God's divine work rules and guides us to love again!

Community reply
Jocelyn, that was me
Community reply
same here!!!! we are getting along but like anonymous said it is still a long way to affection and love between us but I'm praying that things will be better.


I got my wife flowers and candy on my way home from work. She hasn't said anything. Just watching bachelorette.

Community reply
sometimes we crave a response of some sort. Anything will do. But just bc she hasn't said anything doesn't mean she doesn't notice or appreciate it. Don't give up. This thing is challenging for sure. Stick with it.


When I want to talk it's never a good time so it doesn't get sorted. So this is why i am doing this. God is the only one



Remember, The Love Dare isn't all about changing them to bring them back to you, it's the change in you that brings them back. By you changing, the will want to change too.

Community reply
so true and finding each other again after drifting apart and losing the love God gave each other


completed day 3 yesterday it felt nice. I had bought her some flowers for day two. was reading some of the comments here and you guys had some great ideas. I bought my wife her favorite candy she loved it! she even shared some with me. why is that?



Guys I'm telling you first hand this dare works well, I had a hard time but did it. Life is hard but so rewarding in the end. Keep in mind WE ALL change. Love is lifelong. Fight for your love and win.

Community reply
thank you amen ๐Ÿ™ in Jesus sweet name remember working together is better than working separate
Community reply
Thank you amen!
Community reply
Thank you.


though small, I bought my husband his favorite candy thats now in "sneaker" shapes and they actually symbolize his favorite shoes. He loved them! and he shared because "they're so good i want you to have some". goal completed. :)



if buying something is not possible today.. is there something else I can do as a substitute..

Community reply
thank you.
Community reply
time, energy, really anything of value in my opinion. the thing is, i think, if you have 25 cents in your pocket and it's your last quarter period then use it and buy them a pack of gum. remember the widow that gave her last 2 coins as her tithing? it's not about how much it is it's about what it means to you. sacrifice something that means a lot to you even if it doesn't feel like much.


I got my wife her favorite candy bar. She loves them so much! it was a small gesture but it definitely made her know I was thinking of her.



so today I got her tea, flowers and a little Ballon that said thinking of you, and did not even get a thanks? she said the balloon says it for you. so deflated!

Community reply
Guys remember, not every deed you do this early in the task will be appreciated. Continue and stay positive. Don't let a downfall stop you.


so I did the challenge and failed miserable. he said I'm too pushy. I think I'm just going to call it.

Community reply
Don't let a failure stop you. Continue and go forward
Community reply
think in possibilities. don't buy her something, make her something. bake cookies, draw her portrait, whatever. show you are doing effort for her.


what if this challenge falls on a weekend?

Community reply
then do it


I used my gift card 8 got as a gift for a more expensive treat than you usually get



Went and bought my wife some flowers this morning.



ops I kind of did this yesterday since I bought him some craft supplies. usually hate going to get him any thing at craft store so had made an effort to do that yesterday challenge.

Community reply
wait I bought him breakfast today lol and took my son to work


๐Ÿ˜” Idk if this is worth it.I feel so hurt right now i want us to work so bad but it's like he doesn't.He says we're not together but unless he's around his friends that aren't that great of influences he acts like we are.I'm so confused

Community reply
amen I say unto to you thats true but how can you love someone else if you can't love your self it all starts with you not the other person right
Community reply
It doesn't sound like you're married to this man. If that's the case, leave now. If he is doing this now, think of the emotional hell you'll go through while married and with kids. If you're not married, get out of that relationship as quick as you can, he doesn't sound ready to be married by any stretch of the imagination. Marriage takes dedication, hard work and a choice to love your spouse, which means to put them first always.


Finally got to do this after a couple of weeks of waiting to get the money to do so. Bought him 3 tacos from Taco Bell and a MCDs tea. He is always hungry. Sent him a picture of it and he was thankful.



I've started doing this and I saw the smile on my wife's face when I said, "I appreciate you for......."



Decided to send her money for lunch today because she always forgets to eat since she gets so busy.



Decided to send her money for lunch today because she always forgets to eat since she gets so busy..



I struggled today, but I'm ok now. He bought me mozzarella sticks and a caramel ice cream. I do love him so much. I gave him some good smelling stuff for his cars.



I didn't have a whole lot of time to go buy him something,I went to the grocery store to get stuff for lunch and I bought some flowers, sunflowers and daisies.He's at work so he'll be coming home to the flowers.I hope he'll enjoy them.



3rd day of not saying anything negative and we're both trying really hard to follow the rules and it's actually been working rather well



today I bought her and her friends from the Church crawfish just as a surprise. it was received well



I was very hesitant when I looked for something thinking to myself, after everything, why would I spend any money on you? I bought his fav snack for $15. Unfortunately I forgot to give yesterday, so left in his truck with a note early this morning.



Waaaahhh. I thought I failed in not saying negative to her, but I did her a simple video. - vii



This gesture was small, God wants us to have a childlike mind. So I asked my children 4 & 15, and brought him his favorite snacks.



day 3 was a good day. he was home all day and we didn't fight. dare was easy for me I buy him things all the time.he bought me a hammer bc I told him I couldn't find ours.i guess I have to see it as the thought that counts.



I deleted snap chat.im very addicted to it but I know I rather have my love than snap chat now next to the gift

Community reply
this is a big step... social media stands in the way of so much, we and our time becomes consumed by it so easily. My husband made a rule before we got married that we would not have a TV, BEST DECISION you can make for family life and marriage


he said god wasent real and this is all fake..I'm done with this for a while...I lost all hope...๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ’”this book made me have it now its just gone...I'm done.

Community reply
your absolutely right,he apologized to me and told me his faith isn't all the way there due to his mother,saw what I was doing all the time on my phone when we fight which is read this,and he said if he believes this will make me have hope then go ahead and do it.
Community reply
you should never even your spouse convince you that God isn't real. Maybe that's the problem, God is showing you he wants a relationship with you and you pushing him away for you mate. The Bible states that God is a jealous God and he doesn't want any other God before him. Your worshipping your husband when God is the one who created him and you should be worshipping him.


this dare isn't asking for you to buy love this dare is proving how rich u love your spouse money can't buy love but love can make you rich



Hoping completing each day at a time will help us. Lord help me grow to love the way you love your children.



Tonight was bad I almost went somewhere that he didn't want me to go so I left and went to see him, he was mad and stand offish for a bit but got ok!



I helped him put his taillights on his truck and he did get snippy with me a lil cause I walked off after I said I'd help him, he just said be on the phone and hold the tail light!



He said yes since he has to do some studying and take a test and I can get some stuff done for him while he's taking a test for the fire department!



Didnt buy him anything today but I did refrain myself from saying anything negative other then asking if he wanted me to go ahead and stay the weekend or not since I was already gonna be over here tonight and tomorrow waiting for truck parts!



well I guess I will get him the engagement ring I saw him looking at. this is my 2nd time doing the dare. I really hope it will work. I pray God can fix everything before we get married



This one is kind of hard since my husband is an over the road driver. I could buy him something when he comes home. I am still going to remind myself not to say anything negative or let anything foul come out of my mouth.



This one is kind of hard since my husband is an over the road driver. I would have to wait until he gets home.



I am anxious to attempt this one tomorrow as I have no clue what I could possibly gift him. I'll respond again tomorrow after I've completed the dare. God speed love & blessings for you all.



I think I must have gotten my days wrong because I did this today. I will buy him something else. I will also remind myself not to allow negativity to come out of my mouth.



I was a little early and gave it to him last night tomorrow I want to put his gift to use for him I hope he liked it



how do you invest in someone that's falling out of love with you after 16 years. this is hard. I'm trying my best. but seems like everyday she loves me less. please pray for my family.

I'm going through the same thing. we are supposed to be celebrating 18 years of being together this year. I'm not sure that will be the case.


i brought him a chocolate b he ate it, but didn't say anything, atleast he enjoy it.



this one hit me hard i need to invest more into my wife then other things that have no meaning



despite the bombshell and the anger towards me for what I had done to hubby, I got him his favourite pork pie and licorice. He declined having it but I told him it is for him whatever he does with it is up to him. I held my tongue well today..



how do you do this when your spouse says he wants out.

Community reply
ok
Community reply
Yes I do. now he told me he is planning to move back to England, we are in Nz.
Community reply
do you really love him

I ordered some pizza, hotdog sandwich and bought his favorite soda and have it delivered to my husband's place. I'm afraid that he won't accept it so I had to instruct the delivery man not to mention my name. Hope that he enjoyed eating the food.



We will have been married three years this year and are doing good but I want to keep it that way! Today has so far been my favorite and the easiest for me.



my wife went to get her hair done today. I managed to get the coffee shop across from the hair place to make her a special chai latte tea with a note and get it surprise delivered to where she was getting her hair done. I think that made her day.

Community reply
that is extremely sweet!!


Got up qnd made my wife coffee, ordered her a $200 massage from a spa, and got her lilies which symbolize rebirth.



today I bought him stuff so that I could make him a 49era blanket I made the blanket. nothing right now I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle but I won't give up I'm praying to God every single night



I buy my man things all the time. I feel like I go over board with my relationship. what's the best thing to do to show him Im thinking of him without buying anything because I'm constantly buying him things and doing things for him?

Community reply
show interest in something that is important to him even if your not interested


Been on day 3 for 3/4 days, b/c I dont know what to buy. I've buy him food for work but he doesnt notice anymore. In the past ive tried buying things that he uses as a hobby or he likes but then they just sit unused "b/c he no longer enjoys it".

Community reply
yes, difficult choice. I learned that buying can alzo be interpreted differently. How abiut making something for him that he will enjoy. it's about the care that goes in to it. Good luck!


on this day I bought her a necklace. she always talks about how much she loves wearing them. I bought her one that I felt was amazing. she was truly happy and we exchanged good conversations and seen her smile for once.



Yesterday was a busy day and I was picking up some McDonald's for myself late. I called and ask if he wanted something and he said he had already ate and was going to bed. So I decided to just get him an apple pie. He was really surprised!



my husband had a bad day, so I went ahead and completed day 3 on day 2 and bought him a little pick me up gift. he did the same for me and bought me a bottle of wine ๐Ÿท



this week is our anniversary. was able to get to the store and get a card with his fav candy bar. he was very surprised. 3 days and doing well..



what do i do if i have no monny today?

Community reply
I wasnt sure I'd be able to get out. originally, due to covid, I was going to just write a letter. it just so happened my son picked me up and took me to the store. all I bought was a card and candy bar.. but it was going to be a handwritten letter
Community reply
it's not what you buy for them but the meaning. you don't have to buy something to show your love. sometimes just being there is enough


I didn't buy my spouse anything but I did make his lunch for him before he left to go back to wherever he was staying. he said thank you and told me that I really didn't have to do it. Then he seemed angry. ๐Ÿฅบ

Community reply
I would make him a lunch but I wake up a hour before him everyday he works make him coffee a lunch and pull his clothes out for that day and put them on the bed and wake him up for work.
Community reply
that can be upsetting, but please don't give up. maybe it was a misunderstanding? either way, it's the effort that you put in to it and im sure it means more than he's showing.

Today, I got my wife and her bestie, one of my wife's favorite restaurants delivered to her. It was the first time in a while I could feel joy in her voice even though it was text. It brought me pure happiness in my heart.



I made a card with a cute drawing and a short message for my husband (instead of buying) to find in his lunch box from Feb 1st... will continue to give him surprised handmade card until Feb 14th.



my husband don't have time for me.. which is I need .. a consistent communication because we are in long distance. but seems I am deprived on his time

having a hard time with this one



sent my husband text throughout the day and when he got home just tell him how much I love him. have lot towork on . material things. not everything.



i did some few things for husband today. he asked why am i treating him good and just brushed me away. feeling hurt, but i am glad he sees my effort.

Community reply

it's hard to do these dares when my wife and I are separate she stayed home with the kids I'm at my mother's not easy doing things for her first two I was at home but now and moving forward is the real struggle

Community reply
Try praying that God will show you how to do this dare.


my wife said I could skip this one since I've been getting her stuff unexpectedly.

Community reply
I would say never to skip a day. Don't buy her somethong, but be unexpected. Make her something, bake her cookies I don't know. It's a challenge, so challenge yourself. Make love great again. :)


Can't go out because of covid. Besides that wife is not talking to me. :( missed the dare and had horrible day.

Community reply
Keep up the good spirit! Don't focus on the buying. You can read the assignment as 'present a gift'. Make something, draw, recite her favorite poem, whatever. Be creative :)


I bought my fiance a new bed, his current one was giving him back problems.



I bought him a new bed, his current one was giving him back problems.



i think of my family today



well this dare backfired I left the stuff on her windshield on my way home for her to find in the morning and she went to the car and found it. she did say thank you.

Community reply
that's part of the challenge.. she gonna fight you but just keep going
Community reply
now she is telling me I need to leave her alone she doesnt want to deal with this and why cant I just give her space. i dont know what to do.


yesterday I bought him a pizza however it was delivered to his house instead of mines...lol... it created a conversation and we laughed so something good came from it...



im not aloud to work he is the only one that can work how am i doing this for him i dont know what to do

Community reply
The concept of "buying" something is subjective, which means you can put something together or make something he might like or whatever inspiration God offers you. Be creative. Pray to God to guide you and He will. I'm praying for you too.


this love dare is helping a lot when he sees.im ignoring al the bad stuf his been saying to me he walks away and. say his gonna sleep

Community reply
Excellent. A blessing in the works. Keep it up. Praying for you.


ok so the problem with this one is my husband is the one who makes the money I'm not aloud to have any unless I let him know what it was for so how am I supposed to do this.

Community reply
Although I agree that in a marriage partnership there should be equal access to money like with a joint account, and sitting together to budget where the money goes in all openness and honesty. For now however I also agree that if you pray to God He will show you other ways to accomplish your goals and be successful in this dare. Praying for you.
Community reply
That sounds very scary. You need to have access to money without asking for permission!
Community reply
Hi dont worry about money, do what you can with what you got. God doesnt care about that he cares about you and what you do, believe me he will help you make a way. strongs for you Mam.


my husband and I have been together 8 years married 4 I had become an alcoholic and damaged our marriage. I love this love dare because it's helping me to pay attention to myself and how I react. I found the first day was the hardest

was told "it could of waited till Christmas.." but whatever..

Community reply
that's not right but mine would have said the same thing


this was hard to do today. I did as the dare said and all he did was complain about what I bought him told me I should have said something first. god help me get thru this



Day 3 done, she thought it was from her girlfriend lover and posted a picture of her smiling ear to ear and then she read the card... Tonight she is with her๐Ÿ˜ขthis is painful and hard

During this love dare how do you not be jealous when your in competition? I'm starting to just lose hope.


today I just stopped and grab some snack cakes I knew he liked and gave them to him. he seemed to enjoy the surprise of it did the same for one of our best friends and I know he appreciated it



Everything was going well, until his parent's rocked up, it's like heel went into super mode for them, interrupting my online session to do something for them and when confronted about it, it's like I was dealing with another person. The Anger!!

Community reply
it's really hard and we don't have money either so I'll leave a note thing ty I like being able to share on here with y'all it's so hard alone one sided
Community reply
You don't have to buy something to give him something meaningful. A thank you note thanking him for something small he did either recently or in the past. Given to him without expecting any response will speak louder to him then any object you can buy.
Community reply
You have to stay strong let God work in your marriage.


Tried this yesterday but my husband decided not to come home. Today I saw a good deal on a favorite pair of boots, so I bought him two pairs. discussed it with him over text. he doesn't like me buying him things



This is my second time doing this in the last few months. the first time was to save my marriage. This time, its to strengthen it. I think he's remembering the love I have for him.

Community reply
I think we should redo it over and over.


my Spouse came to the house to feed animals. I bought him a new pair of boots to keep him warm at work. in the boots I put the letter I wrote yesterday. I also asked for forgiveness in the letter.



I put all that I am and have into our relationship but I don't feel like he puts everything before us

Community reply
I had to almost lose my family to see that my wife put so much into our marriage. God had to open my eyes please pray for your spouse. Do the dare don't give up God is for you and your marriage.

I did this same thing for my wife. No acknowledgement of receiving it. Not even, why did you do that? one day at a time I guess.


My husband is hard to buy for, and right now we're struggling financially. I don't have the extra funds to buy him anything, but is there something I can do for him that would still aim to learn the same lesson from this challenge?



I mixed up day 2 and 3. Today I sent him a text letting him know how much I appreciate and love him. I'm still working on no negative comments and thinking before I speak. I pray to God give me strength to show my love and hold back my words



M - I didn't get around to buy anything yesterday, so i will get to this task later.



M - day 3 starts tomorrow. So far so good. This dare seems easy enough, except that he might reject what ever I buy for him. But I will try to get him something he likes. Mostly he buys me food and so do I. Maybe I can find something more special...



got her a candy bouquet delivered and saw the biggest real smile that I haven't seen in a long time I was a real ass to her to take that from her
