Something I learned from the Love and Respect series – men are more likely to enjoy “shoulder to shoulder” time – working side by side, watching a movie/TV show side by side than “face to face” time – talking over dinner. So…find something he would like to do shoulder to shoulder. Talking is optional. 🙂
Those are good suggestions, including Sharon’s. I would add some simple ideas:
Thank him for little acts of kindness, such as preparing vegetables, drying dishes etc.
Hold his hand when walking together.
Tell him “I love you” with a hug and a kiss.
Pray together, holding hands, and thank God for the love you share together.
