So Hubby comes home with this movie Wednesday Night... I've heard about the acting (can be hard to watch) Not to mention I don't like action type movies and thought this was truly about firemen... which I didn't want to see because that would just make me sad.
Then Hubby brought this movie home (borrowed from a coworker) He dragged me kicking and screaming to watch it with him... Because I live under a rock, I had no idea that it was faith based or what it really was...
I just new that I DID NOT want to watch this thing..... Until about 15 minutes in... and I saw my Guys face... I ended up watching his face more then the movie... Turns out its a getting your marriage back on track Movie...and lets just say there were a LOT of AHA moments!! For those of you that also may live under a rock... And yes it is faith based.
However you don't have to be a religious person to know that if your a Butt Hole to your spouse, it may be a good idea to change the way you communicate. For you, for them, for your kids.....And I'm not talking only about the Men.... In some marriages it can be the woman that needs some help in that department and I think in either case every married couple can relate to this movie.
Whether your the butthead (as veg would say) or your spouse is.... it is worth watching... The guy in the movie is given a book... Called the Love Dare and for 40 days is asked to do some incredible things...Well my Hubby was soo moved by the movie, that I stopped at the store last night and bought us the book.
He's already read the first day and asked that I do this with him. I read the first day, and on day 1, we are supposed to NOT say anything negative to each other. Wowsers, that simple little thing is harder then you think... and the two of us spent a lot of time smirking at lunch not saying what was on our mind, made us laugh instead.
And why was I at lunch?... Cuz my Hubs, showed up in the parking lot at work and called me saying he was there... But I was in a meeting... "I'll wait for you" he said... And he did, in the parking lot for an hour he waited for me.... Just so he could take me to lunch.
When I asked "Why"... he said because he is Fireproofing! *smile* I do love this guy!!
Here is a link to the book and sample: http://www.bhpublishinggroup.com/lovedare/book.html#moreinfo scroll down to the "introduction" and then read Day 1..... I dare you to stop there!!
Cool! I've been reading Dr. Phil's Relationship Rescue (no, our marriage isn't in trouble, but what marriage can't use work, right?). Back when we had tv, I liked Dr. Phil's relationship advice (his child-rearing advice is terrible, IMO) and his book is pretty good. Good for you guys for doing anything to work on your marriage. I think neglect more than anything else is what dooms people.
