Surprise, Surprise

Women surprise their husbands more than men surprise their wives. Would you agree with this statement?

While, playing tennis I commented to my female tennis partner that I could see what my husband on the other side of the court was doing. Yes this was a bit of a challenge match, women against the guys. ‘I can see what Mick’s doing,’ I said to my partner. ‘He’s serving right down the T to cut out the angle on my return shots.’

‘That’s what happens when you’ve been married as long as each of us has. We know how they think,’ she said.

‘Although Mick tells me I can still surprise him at times,’ I added.

‘I think woman can surprise their guys no matter how long they’ve been married more than the other way round,’ she said.

I wonder. When I asked Mick later he tended to agree that was probably the case. Although having said that Mick surprised me by something he did recently.

When was the last time you surprised your husband? When was the last time he surprised you by something he did, said or organized? If you’re going to surprise your marriage partner you need to ensure that it will be a pleasant surprise not a shock.

Sometimes a little surprise in marriage can be a good thing so that it doesn’t feel like the same old routine. You could surprise them with breakfast in bed on their day off, with a box of chocolates or a new book they want to read for no reason other than to say ‘I love you,’ or by doing a job you know they hate doing, like cleaning the oven. You could surprise them with tickets to a special show you know they would like to see or a love note packed in with their lunch.

No matter how long or how short a time you’ve been married, keep the romance alive and think about one way you can surprise your spouse this week. Then go ahead and do it.
