Having fun getting to know your spouse

.Last time I talked about the importance of having your spouse being your best friend. what are fun ways to get to know your spous? why is it important to have fun to get to know your spouse. The book talks about the importance of having a love map and your relationship.  and I said to myself what is a love map?  it's knowing your partner's pretty well. For me for this exercise was amazing because I don't really have a  love  map in my relationship. By working the question games from the book the seven principles of making marriage work. had helped me a great deal and also the class that I'm taking at byui. Anyways the funny part of taking this question games that come in the book. I was able to get to know my husband better as he was able to get to know me better. For example I have told my husband my favorite food and as we were playing the game they ask what is your spouse favorite food.  and I was surprised that he didn't know. Because I have said it in front of him and I guess he didn't grasp it. What he put down was carne asada burritos, then taken as an offense because I know we're trying to get to know each other better and it's a game. I started laughing and I said no. I asked them what you think that I like burritos. and he said always because I buy them all the time. So I thought to myself wait a minute he is thinking of me in a way because he's trying to remember what I normally do. but I told him no burritos are not my favorite food it is enchiladas. The reason why I buy burritos is because that's the only thing open around 11 at night around our area. so we both started laughing. So that is why I think it's very important to get to know your partner's because you get to know better their needs and you're able to understand more of them.  I also learned it's very important to have a positive thought of your spouse.  and it's also really important to learn to cherish your partner. and talk about the important to minimize thoughts of negativism torture partner. to challenge yourself to have positive thoughts of the good things that your  Partners do. Always remember that no one's perfect they were all trying to become better and that is to help each other to fulfil those goals.
