Every Friday we will ask the community to suggest a weekly relationship or personal improvement challenge. This should be something small that can be accomplished in a week that will make your relationship just a little bit better.

Anyone can suggest challenges below. You are then encouraged to pick what you think would be best for you and your relationship this week and make it a goal. Then on Monday, a "report back" post will pop up. You have until next Friday to give us the update on how your challenge went. And hey, if it's bigger than a comment - feel free to write a field report!

A few suggestions to get everyone started:

  • Make a point to tell your partner what you appreciate about him this week. Make it real and genuine.
  • Dress a cut above normal for a week.
  • Go for the full 50's housewife routine when he gets home. Fix your hair and make up, meet him at the door with a kiss and space and have dinner ready to go when he's ready to eat.

The goal of these challenges should be to try things you might not normally do and observe how they help impact your relationship. You can suggest a challenge that you want to try or that you already do but think will help others. Let's all work together to make our relationships more fulfilling.
