What to do when intimacy has ceased in your marriage

This is a very difficult place to be.

Have you ever seen the kid's movie Madagascar?

If so, you'll remember that from the time the four main characters (Marty, Melvin, Gloria & Alex) get onto the island, they don't eat anything. Nothing. Not until the very end of the movie when the shifty penguins introduce them to sushi, do they finally fill their hunger.

How To Treat Your Husband Like a Man (It's all about respect)

Respect is everything to a man.

I had no idea what this even meant until I picked up the book: Love and Respect: The Love She Most Desires. The Respect He Desperately Needs.

God dropped this little book into my hands at the exact right moment and it literally saved my marriage.

It taught me that the same way that MY primary need in a relationship is love, my husband's primary need is respect.

I couldn’t believe what I was reading and I was amazed I had never noticed it before.

That the key to my man’s heart was respect (not love).

I couldn’t wait to try it out.

The One Thing I Said That Won My Husband’s Heart Back for Keeps

I closed my eyes and clenched my teeth as I was about to speak words into the phone that felt so fake and unnatural to me.

We were not even married yet.

Yet, we were going on four years of the most bipolar and dysfunctional relationship you can imagine. I was exhausted.

I knew we loved each other deep down, but we could not make our relationship work.
