You love your spouse, but something feels off.

Maybe the two of you have drifted into a routine of logistics and small talk.

Tension might be lingering under the surface, turning simple conversations into frustrating arguments.

Or perhaps you’ve tried some DIY marriage fixes like date nights or relationship books, but you keep finding yourself back in the same cycles.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Many couples reach a point where their best efforts aren’t moving the needle. But that doesn’t mean your marriage is broken.

It means it’s time to approach things differently—with intention, strategy, and the right support.

4 Ways to Make Valentine's Day Special This Year

For many couples, the meaning of Valentine's Day has been lost in overly priced cards and expectations that have us focusing on superficial things we’re told represent love.

What if Valentine’s became a day where you focused on you and your spouse and moved beyond gifts and flowers?

Here are a few ways to truly celebrate love and build intimacy as a couple beyond what popular culture tells you to do:

1. Create a Vision Board for Your Future

Clip pictures from a magazine, print them out, or draw them. You can also use words you want to focus on as part of your vision.

What better way to remind yourselves daily of your goals for the future?

2. Build Your Own Romance Calendar

Instead of one night of gifts and a fancy meal, what would it look like if you plan a season of romance?

Brainstorm what you can do once a week, once a month, and once a year that speaks romance to the two of you.

3. Vow to Celebrate on any Other Day but the 14th

You’ve been told that your biggest display of LOVE should be on February 14th. So do something different and celebrate on February 4th or even March 4th.

Take a stand as a couple that you don’t need to be told when to celebrate love.

4. Be Bold

Make February 14th the day each year that you do something BOLD together. Go to one of those indoor skydiving places, eat ice cream for dinner or have sex outside in a tent in the backyard.

Instead of doing what you’re told for Valentine’s Day, do something bold!

C. 79%

D. 98%

There are no rules about who should initiate sexual intimacy in your marriage. But knowing how to initiate sex in your marriage can be a very real challenge.

A study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that in more than 60% of the couples surveyed, men initiated sex more often than women.

Both men and women struggle when it comes to know how to initiate sex.

In fact, 87% of the ONE Family say there has been a time when they struggled to initiate sex with their spouse.

When only one of you is initiating or when neither of you is initiating sex, it’s time to take a look at what is going on between the two of you.

Most of the time, when you hear "physical intimacy" or "physical connection," people are talking about sex. But in our work with couples, we've seen that loving, non-sexual touch (physical intimacy) is absolutely vital for marriage, right alongside sexual intimacy. Here's the thing: you can have physical intimacy without it leading to sex. But strong sexual intimacy without physical touch? Nearly impossible. The two are so connected that a lack of physical intimacy often leads to...
