Help me find a good marriage advice blog.

My wife is terrific. We have a great relationship and she is amazingly supportive of me in anything I do. I want to keep our relationship as good as it is now. I am just looking for an entertaining blog that gives good relationship advice, and hopefully a couple of great ideas for small loving gestures that I might not have thought of.

I am not looking for:
- A blog focusing on "fixing" a dysfunctional relationship.
- Anything religious in nature or preachy (for example)

Nothing too serious. Just a blog to help me be the best husband I can be!

Not a blog, but Harville Hendrix's site for "Imago" therapy puts out a decent newsletter which they'll email you almost every month. You can sign up and/or peruse some sample issues here. It's not all great material, but some of it is worthwhile.

Perhaps a little preachy (and a tad circa 1950), but The Art of Manliness is a lot of fun if taken with a grain of salt.


"Welcome to The Art of Manliness- a blog dedicated to uncovering the lost art of being a man.The Art of Manliness is authored by husband and wife team, Brett and Kate McKay. It features articles on helping men be better husbands, better fathers, and better men. In our search to uncover the lost art of manliness, we’ll look to the past to find examples of manliness in action. We’ll analyze the lives of great men who knew what it meant to “man up” and hopefully learn from them. Every week we seek to uncover the essential skills and knowledge today’s man needs to know. Since beginning in January 2008, The Art of Manliness has already gained 19,000+ subscribers and continues to grow each week."

It's not a relationship blog, but Trent Hamm at The Simple Dollar says some really amazing things about his wife, and just recently had a post about how they built their successful marriage. It might not work in terms of regular reading for you, but I think a search of his blog for the relationship/marriage posts might give you some ideas.

Buy a book of "How to be a gentleman" , put in practise all the advice about everything given and you'll see your wife jumping of happines.

;) that's better for any woman that any marriage website.
