The Love Dare, Day 4

Love is thoughtful...

"How precious also are Your thoughts to me...How vast is the sum of them! If i should count them, they would outnumber the sand." -Psalm 139:17-18

Ohh man this one is going to be hard, lol.

"Love thinks...When you first fell in love...you spent hours dreaming of what your loved one looked like, wondering what he or she was doing, rehearsing impressive thinks to say, then enjoying sweet memories of the time you spent together, You honestly confessed, 'I cant stop thinking about you' "

Aww how sweet, yes it is true and sometimes i still do this. The book says after time all the romance fades and we go through life without thinking much about our mate, we aren't thoughtful...um not true at least not for me. I can think of at least 100 times a day i think about Frank, usually in anger but hey a thought is a thought. Ohh this is the best:

"Lets be honest, men struggle with thoughtfulness more than women. A man can focus like a laser on one thing and forget the rest of the world..."

"A woman is more multi-conscious, able to maintain an amazing awareness of main factors all at once. She can talk on the phone, cook, know where the kids are in the house, and wonder why her husband isnt helping...all simultaneously. Adding to this, a woman also thinks relationally. When she works on something, she is cognizant of all the people who are connected to it..."

"Both of these tendencies are examples of how God designed woman to complete their men."

Book also goes on to say that men say exactly what they mean and that women speak between the lines. That a man needs to learn how to speak his words more thoughtful and try and undertsand what his wife is saying and a woman needs to learn how to speak her thoughts more clearly because men generally don't know how to put theirs wife's riddles together. It also says that women get angry then don't tell their husbands why, and their husbands are left wondering why they're getting punished for something they didn't even know they did. hahahaha.

Ok i was wondering why i just cant come out with it when I'm talking to him. I always hint at whats wrong or what i want but just cant get it out. I hope i can do this day lol.

Love Dare Day4 Dare:

CONTACT YOUR SPOUSE SOMETIME DURING THE BUSINESS OF THE DAY. HAVING NO AGENDA OTHER THAN ASKING HOW HE OR SHE IS DOING AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING YOU COULD DO FOR THEM

Haha this one will be hard because if i just randomly call him up asking how his day is going he is gonna get mad that I'm taking him away from his work. But here goes...

I so did it! I asked how his day was so far and he said shitty, but he asked how mine was. I said ok. I also asked if there was anything i could do for him and he says all laughing um no...then he goes i know you want something just ask. I'm like i honestly don't want anything and he laughs and says its ok just ask. I'm like dude, I just wanted to see how your day was and to tell you I loved you. He got a good kick out of it, we were both laughing our butts off. I think he was surprised when i let him go saying I would see him when he got home. Ohh man lol.
