Without kindness in your relationship, your marriage won't last. Here are some ways to check up on yourself to see how kind you are in your marriage:
- You say "yes" a lot more than "no" when your spouse asks for a favor or for help.
- You are willing to share that last piece of pie or cookie because being kind is being generous.
- You listen with your heart.
- You don't interrupt your spouse.
- You are polite and say "please" and "thank you" when speaking to your spouse.
- You show respect for your mate.
- You let your spouse know how much he/she is appreciated.
- You don't roll your eyes when your spouse says something you disagree with.
- You routinely look for the good in your spouse.
- You are helpful.
- You don't allow unkind comments to flow from your lips.
- You are sure that your teasing is fun and not hurtful.
