When you were first married, spending time together was your greatest joy. And you paid each other loads of attention. But just a few years later, that's probably all changed. Because neglecting each other is the most common mistake married couples make. Until suddenly the connection between you is gone.

Men usually get that way by over-prioritising their work and social life. Some women do the same, of course, but much more often, women really start neglecting their husbands once the children arrive. And that really matters. Because relaxing, talking and being affectionate together is just as important as everything else that you do. You fell in love because you spent time together. You'll fall out again if you stop.
