Here's Lori:
The generous tips are designed to be a steady stream of ideas for blessing your husband. Because I can't speak to every relationship, I encourage everyone to be creative and tailor the tips to your unique relationship. As a way of modeling this, I'd like to share some nice variations shared by a few generous folk (thanks all!) about the recent tip about using a journal to exchange questions with your husband.
Jessica: My husband and I do the same thing through email. We also use email as a source of expressing new intimate ideas for the bedroom. It is a lot easier for my husband to express feelings and emotions to me through writing/typing since he's not a big "talker."
Jon (yes, we have the occasional husband who "listens in" to the tips his wife receives): I have created a password protected journal at www.tiddlyspot.com that my wife and I use online. It's kind of a shared personal journal that I also use to communicate my emotions over some things.
Amy: My husband and I have been passing a journal back and forth for years also. Sometimes I only see it four times a year, but sometimes it shows up once or twice a month for a good long time. We use it for tough issues, curiosities, love letters, and even a few gripe sessions on HUGE issues. I'd rather have my anniversary letters from my husband all recorded in that journal than a stack of Hallmark cards! And when I see that black journal (use one that he won't mind slipping in his briefcase if necessary), I get so excited about the upcoming communication, whatever it may be, just because I know there's an opportunity coming up where we'll really connect deeply on something.
Think generous! Lori <><
