At last, the moment you’ve been anticipating has arrived—a rare kid-free evening with your partner. While the kids may not be completely out of the picture, their 7:30 PM bedtime gives you a window of opportunity for some intimate time before the youngest needs their mom by around 10 PM.
So, how can you ensure that your wife is in the mood for a little romance? What actions can you take to set the stage for an enjoyable evening? If she’s already donned her oversized nightshirt and comfy granny-panties, you might be missing your chance. However, by implementing a few thoughtful gestures throughout the day, you could have her eagerly anticipating your touch by 8 PM. Here’s how:
- Rise Early
Wake up at least 20-30 minutes before she does. This allows you time to brew coffee, get the kids up, set them up with breakfast, and even start on their lunches. - Be Hands-On with the Kids
Whether it’s helping little Sam put on his socks or calming down Emma after a wardrobe meltdown, being an active participant in the morning routine shows your wife you’re in this together. - Handle the Laundry
Don’t overlook this chore. Toss a load in the washing machine. It’s a small gesture that goes a long way. - Show Spontaneous Affection
A playful hug or a quick squeeze can ignite a spark. Make these little touches part of your morning routine. - Check In Throughout the Day
A simple “How’s your day going?” text can mean more than you realize, especially if she’s juggling a stressful job or managing the kids at home. - Send Flirty Texts
A cheeky message or flirty meme can keep the excitement alive. - Be Punctual
If you promise to be home by 6 PM, make sure you follow through. Being late disrupts her schedule and can lead to unnecessary stress. - Express Gratitude for Dinner
No matter how the meal turns out, show appreciation for her efforts. A simple thank you can make her feel valued. - Clean Up After Dinner
Go beyond just your plate; load everything into the dishwasher. If you want to take it a step further, load the dishwasher and turn it on. This act of service can be quite appealing. - Offer a Massage While Watching Her Favorite Show
This combines relaxation with quality time, catering to both her need for comfort and entertainment.
Incorporating even a few of these suggestions into your day can make your wife feel cherished, and a wife who feels appreciated is more likely to reciprocate that affection. Remember, getting lucky might just mean her reminding you of how fortunate you are to have each other.
