3 - Love is not selfish
Whatever you put your time, energy, and money into will become more important to you. Itโs 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.'
Comments
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.
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...๐คฆ
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.
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! ๐๐ผ
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.
things are going well but ONLY by Godโs grace! thank You Jesus.
i am really struggling, i just can be good enough
she is so unappreciated of anything i have been doing yesterday was day number 3 today is day number 4 of the 40 day challenge. it hurts ๐ข
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.
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
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.
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.
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. โค๏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.
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.
hard night. love dare well. confession of porn addiction hurt her.
I bought my fiance and her son, who I see as mine, pizza
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 ๐

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???
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
total disaster he started intermitted fasting & only realised after bought him cappuccino that is wont work also bought him omlet but he said he'd rather have something fresh. made him the supper he wanted and went to buy extra ingredient he wanted
i had a rough day with my husband yesterday felt like giving up on our marriage he just wont sit down and talk our problems with me please lord guide me through this difficult time in my marriage....
We went to target for dinner items & had him pick out a new deodorant he had mentioned he wanted to try but I couldn't remember the scent. I felt kind of bad for not knowing which scent my husband likes. -L
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 me๐
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
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.
today was tough i was the punching bag. couldnt do anything right but thats ok imma keep going
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
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
placed an order for a replacement and an anniversary ring to shiw her that i still care. should be here sometime within the week.
today day 3 was hard for me. my husband thought i was trying to buy him, which going in to today i kinda figured thats what he was going to say. please pray for us this is my last hope.
forgot to post yesterday..2nd Day...Told wife was doing Love Dare and she said nothing is changing her mind..its to late for this or anything..TY Jamie
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
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?
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?

Day 3 . . . I have plans to go to a rural town merchantile today. It will be fun to look for a surprise gift for him today.
doing this togetyer neither of us have funds so were making eachother something special today inthink thats a better investment anyway time over money
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.
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.
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.
Can anyone read this comment?
i am lost as what to get him. hold on to God to save this marriage
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.
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.
day three and she found out I was doing The Love Dare last night hope it doesn't affect her receiving it
day 3 went so good. a teddy and flowers. he said thank you!
she use to love receiving gifts to her work place now she is not speaking hard days.november 16
she use to love receiving gifts to her work place now she is not speaking hard days.
hopefully today goes well I'm am on day 3 and it happens to be his birthday and I have made plans to take him out and let him treat himself and spend some time with our 8 month old son.
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.
I actually got a thank you from my wife today. it really out me over the moon.
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.
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.
the fear that he will leave again. I barely survived the first month.
he left 2 months ago I brought this book as a last effort to save what we have. we were great friends and I remember not wanting to date him for fear if anything happened we would lose friendship. he wants to come home and I just can't past the
what if the funds aren't there?can I do something special
hardes thing to do is the right thing when your mate is not. Lord Give me Strength, and please, God please. Get his attention.
today was ok got her a card
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...
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.
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.
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.
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
so were suppose to buy our significant other something nice.well I bought her oatmeal this morning which she loves. I walked into her apt and i saw her and the guy laying in bed laughing.. wowww. prayers please
today has been hard. Mondays at my job are very stressful & been having bad stomach cramps. I've been puttin it out on my husband accidentally. tomorrow is another day. good news is my daughter was witnessed to last night. thank you Lord!
I feel since he's not really doing maybe it doesn't matter I don't know will decuss in counciling
I did that today as well as doing yesterday's
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.
I got him a m&m mix of his favorites
I got him chocolate milk which he loves. He's so cute.
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.
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.
when your apart and she won't accept anything from you is tough. I did it though and it shows her I care
He finally read the card that I gave him... This weekend we are going camping at the beach.
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! โค๏ธ
we have fought like cats and dogs since I started this "3" days ago, it's really been hard
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.
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.
I dont work so i dont have money as hubby controls the finances so I'll make something out of love for him
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!
I got my wife flowers and candy on my way home from work. She hasn't said anything. Just watching bachelorette.
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.
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.
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..
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!
so I did the challenge and failed miserable. he said I'm too pushy. I think I'm just going to call it.
what if this challenge falls on a weekend?
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.
๐ 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
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
he said god wasent real and this is all fake..I'm done with this for a while...I lost all hope...๐๐this book made me have it now its just gone...I'm done.
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 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.
1 as ZZZ
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.
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?
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".
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 ๐ท
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?
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. ๐ฅบ
duck
feels like everything is falling apart.
Today I decided to make a gift basket with all his fav treats, love note and lipstick on the mirror after a horrible day at work.. Hope it cheers him up
I reminded him not to forget his lunch that he left last night. ๐
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.
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
my wife said I could skip this one since I've been getting her stuff unexpectedly.
Can't go out because of covid. Besides that wife is not talking to me. :( missed the dare and had horrible day.
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.
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
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
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.
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
last 3 me... too many characters apparently

hehasn't looked at the texts for the apps and all-like trying NOT to get attatched again-I keep holding my tongue and being nice and stuff-
I picked out some cheese.anyways-he thinks im just angry at the world and since I haven't said anthg neg lately n not responding to 'comments' and we had a good day yest-he might be seeing something.
Bought my wife purple orchids, she loved it. Its standing on her bedside cabinet. Thank you God for this small turnaround and the oppertunity to be both patient and loving towards my wife.
did this
Day 3 done. Got her flowers, her favorite chocolate, and her favorite flavor of wine. She hasnt seen them or she's just not responding. holding my tongue was hard today but I fought through it.
was told "it could of waited till Christmas.." but whatever..
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 her๐ขthis is painful and hard
My wife will be receiving flowers and her favorite chocolates @ work today, I pray that God will bless the effort and also the way she receives it in her heart.
so far the past two days have been a nice change of pace. what a gift this app is.
hjh
Barley.....wanted help reading instructions and he didn't want to so he snapped at me and I asked him not to then refrased & said I could really just use some help. Ugh!
bought my husband a reese's peanut butter cup. its his favorite. don't have alot of money right now. but he was happy and said thank you.
I bought her flowers. She thought was sweet and that they were beautiful, but that's it. We used to talk for hours about anything, now we barely talk. I'm trying everyday, but she's pulling away.
I took him a small gift bag with treats he likes to work and added notes to each of them. Then also added a card starting with a apology, then a favorite memory, and some other things.
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!!
on this day I bought my husband a drink and chips. I did , I got this for you. he said by the way you look nice. that is the first time I have heard him say that in a long time. it was so nice to hear him say that to me.
I will love my spouse with genuine affection and take delight in honoring him. Romans 12:10 NLT Personalized
This one was hard for me. I ended up getting him something and when I gave it to him he surprised.
So she asked for space yesterday, yet comes into the room and clicking all over the floors with her boots waking me up. So I got up and took her coffee and a soda and left it anonymous.
I bought a cheap necklace on Amazon it was a key and a heart. When we were separated she wore it all the time. It really gave me hope.
day 3 starts tomorrow we are financially straped but I think I can do something from the โค hoping this challenge helps because I'm at my end
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.
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
it wasn't much but he loves fudge rounds so I bought him some. tomorrow at counseling will either determine the end or return us to normal.
Sending my ex husband a gift through Amazon to his po box. His favorite tea that is hard to find in stores.
I bought my wife her favourite hips and drink she was so happy...Thankyou God for your grace...

we don't have a lot of money but I bought him a couple of energy drinks
my wife bought me my favorite beverage today and pizza, and just surprised me.๐ฅฐ

The grass is greener where YOU water it
An Edible Arrangement sent to his job. Hope he likes it!
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
Bought my husband contact solution and coffee:)

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