With today's technology, it is easier than ever to send mass communications quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately, with this, romance has suffered. When was the last time that you wrote a letter to the one you love? If ever, I would venture to say it has been quite some time! Set some time aside, sit down, and write a loving and endearing letter to the one you love. Be sure to write as nicely as you can and use a pen. Make sure that you date the letter so that it can be looked back on in the future.
More Tips: Spray the letter with the cologne you wear. You can also add various little things in it like dried, pressed flowers, pictures, or anything else that might be meaningful to her. To really give the letter a nice presentation you can go to a local arts and crafts store, and in the wedding aisle you should be able to find a wax letter sealer and some wax. Get the stamp that has your last initial on it and a nice color, possibly her favorite color, wax to seal the letter with. This will make the letter much more memorable.

Mail Her A Letter

Share in hobbies
One of the largest divisions between a couple is the time they spend doing their hobbies. While the husband is out fishing, the wife is at home scrap booking. While this isn't necessarily a bad thing in moderation, it isn't healthy in the typical amounts we see everyday. If the two of you can share in a hobby together, that will be quality time for the both of you that will help you in growing together. You can try a new hobby like dancing, or one of you can try to enjoy helping the other in the hobby they enjoy. You could sit down and help her scrapbook, or she can come with you fishing. This will help the two of you to grow together.
More Tips: If you decide to join her in her hobby, make a genuine attempt at enjoying it too. If she feels like you are bored out of your mind it will not only ruin that time for her, but it will make her not want you around when she's using that time. Remember, people engage in hobbies as a fun pass time, so make sure you keep it fun!

Use Your Hands
The next time you're in the card aisle, you might be better off going to the nearest arts and crafts store. While it may not be manly to you, it would be quite meaningful to your wife that you made her the card that you're giving her. The best thing about this idea is you get to truly customize the card for her. Few cards will ever fit her perfectly off of the shelf, and no matter how much she likes a card picked off of the shelf at a store, she would prefer a card you made. Yes, it will probably be more expensive then buying a card, because arts and crafts stores are pricey, and yes it will be time consuming, but this is part of what makes it so special.
Get some nice heavy card stock, then go into the scrapbooking aisle and find those puffy stickers, and foam cutouts and whatever else you think she might like and adhere them to the card. Yes, this is journeying into territory that you probably don't often visit, but it will be very special to her.
More Tips: If you are unsure of what to do, or how to make a nice looking card, find an employee at the store and they will probably be a huge wealth of knowledge. They can also make the experience a lot more comfortable for you. I've been to many arts and crafts stores and the employess are generally nice, and they enjoy arts and crafts.
