I found the following info from Dr. Gary Chapman and thought it so helpful wanted to pass it on! "Everyone wishes their spouse would change. 'We could have a good marriage if he would just help me more around the house.' Or, 'Our marriage would be great if we could have sex more than once a month.' She wants him to change and he wants her to change. Both of them feel condemned and resentful. There is a better way.
Start with you own failures. Admit that you're not perfect. Confess some of your most obvious failures to your spouse and tell them that you want to change. Ask your spouse for one suggestion each week on how you could be a better husband or wife. To the best of your ability make changes. Chances are, your spouse will reciprocate.

I sent this to my small group. Several ladies get discouraged by their spouse. I thought they might like to read this.
