Here is a must-read from Joshua Gordan (http://www.thenonconformistfamily.com/) talking about writing love notes to your wife. He was a guest writer at The Art of Manliness website and actually put all 52 of his love notes from last year on his website. This is awesome. It is so simple to do, your wife will be absolutely in love with the love notes and you will be one step closer to excellence.
Costs:
Time: Seriously, a couple of minutes a day, week or month
Money: Free. Everybody has paper and pens lying around.
Best time to do:
All the time, randomly and consistently. This is something so simple that your wife wishes you would do and yet is a lost art.
Is Best With:
The surprise find. Hiding in the refrigerator, the night stand, under her jewelry, ect.
The Act:
Write a note. I am not entirely sure how to explain it. If you can't write a note... I just don't know. So, here is a sample that Joshua Gordan used in his post by Ronald Reagan:
My Darling WifeDifficulty:
This note is to warn you of a diabolical plot entered into by some of our so called friends — (ha!) calendar makers and even our own children. These and others would have you believe we’ve been married 20 years.
20 minutes maybe — but never 20 years. In the first place it is a known fact that a human cannot sustain the high level of happiness I feel for more than a few minutes — and my happiness keeps increasing.
I will confess to one puzzlement but I’m sure it is just some trick perpetrated by our friends — (Ha again!) I can’t remember ever being without you and I know I was born more than 20 mins ago.
Oh well — that isn’t important. The important thing is I don’t want to be without you for the next 20 years, or 40, or however many there are. I’ve gotten very used to being happy and I love you very much indeed.
Your Husband of 20 something or other.
Easy - Super simple :)
