Be affectionate outside the bedroom. If DH is sitting at the table, I'll come by and rub his shoulders for a few minutes. Sometimes we'll just stand in the middle of the kitchen and hug each other. The kids come by and roll their eyes. A kiss here and there. Just so he knows I love him.
We also hold hands a lot. When we're walking into a store, into church, sitting and watching TV.

Friends of ours just came back from a marriage encounter weekend and said they found it very helpful to restart communication. Our kids are all gone from the house, so we have lots of time to go to dinner together and chat. I think it was hardest when the children were younger and no time as a couple. That's what we're doing in November.

Have you talked about the things you need or are looking for to spice things up? I've been married 20 years and have 2 kids as well, but my dh has nearly died 3 times and been sick and hospitalized many more times so I find that as a result we rarely take each other for granted. I say take some the advice here and jump on it. Don't overthink it. Act. Life is short and you might not get more time. What would you do this week if you weren't sure you had next week? Treat him like that and you will be surprised at how that opens your eyes and gets the passion back.
