How To Make A Water Clock
I thought it would be fun to make our own version of these ancient clocks. Remove the labels from the beverage bottles for clear viewing to the inside. An adult should cut one of the tops off the bottle with a craft knife. Recycle the top; you won't need it. With the top cut off, the bottom of the other bottle should fit snuggly down into it.
Label the bottles if you'd like (bottle A is the complete bottle and bottle B is the one you've cut). Turn the complete bottle over (bottle A) and put a thumbtack through the center of the bottom of the bottle to make a small hole. Grab a length of masking tape and adhere it vertically to the side of the cut bottle (bottle B).
Now get your timer and the pitcher of water ready. Pour the water, using a funnel if desired, into the neck of bottle A (your bottles should be nested) and immediately start the timer. When one minute passes, make a small mark at the water line on the masking tape on bottle B. Continue to mark the minutes until the water has completely emptied from the top bottle into the bottom one. We only marked the first 10 minutes, but you can mark as many minutes as you'd like. Now you can dump out the water and put the timer aside. Another pour of the pitcher and you can calculate how long something takes with just your water clock!
But try to force yourself to stop short of this. Because the idea really is to leave him wanting more. You want every encounter to end well so that it leads to another one. And, when you are the one initiating the contact the first time, then it's always best to allow him to make the next move. Or at least to wait until enough time has passed between each encounter.
Desperation is easy to spot and it usually doesn't inspire him to come back you. It just inspires him to avoid you. If this is the situation that you find yourself in, you may want to consider trying to use technology - texts, emails, Facebook messaging etc. This way, he can't see or hear you. Your words can seem very casual, flirtatious and light hearted even if your emotions are anything but. I literally had to go out of town for a while to just force myself to back away a little bit. And you know what,

Solving marriage problems can sometimes be challenging but can also be fun if you approach it the right way. Couples sometimes are so stressed when dealing with marriage problems that before the solving begins the anger, tension and hostility have already pre-empted the marriage problem solving party. Imagine taking a different approach to discussing and solving issues in your marriage. What if you were to try some of the following as you resolve issues in your marriage.
How about before you discuss ways to resolve or improve communication barriers you agree to do so by taking a bubble bath together (using some of the nice smelling Victoria Secret body wash products), If a shower would work better than so be it! The point is for you to both be just a little relaxed and for some out of your comfort zone.
This could lead to a little more frequent communicating and could improve other areas so you could be solving other marriage problems while resolving this one. Maybe take a trip to Victoria Secret (together) and encourage your sweetie pie, honey bunny or whatever you call him to pick out a few outfits for you to wear. Then you can pick out some nice smelling Cologne that you like for him to put on or perhaps some shower gel.
