I am very sorry to say this last dare has had me a bit stumped.
In the last week or so i have realized that i have to work on my jealousy BIG time! In reality it has nothing to do with how much i trust Jason, it's really about my own insecurities. Like when he goes and hangs out with his friends but leaves me at home with Taylor. He has spent the last 2 years sharing MY friends bc he had just moved back and didnt know anybody! i should be overjoyed that he finally has someone/somewhere that he can go hang out and stay out of trouble.
The best part about it is, they are my friends too and i really like hanging out with all of them! Its kind of a couples thing going on and everyone is so funny and easy going! I think the only reason i get jealous is bc none of them have kids so they can go out whenever they want, whereas i have to stay home and do homework. Don't get me wrong, i would NEVER trade Taylor for going out ANY day or for anything else in the world! It just stinks when Jason doesn't take the same responsibility and i get stuck home alone. Taylor goes to bed around 8:30 and then its just me sitting there watching TV while Jason's out having a good time.
Like i said, i need to work on this, but i am getting better and it is making a difference in our relationship.
The dare said to:
Determine to become your spouse's biggest fan and to reject any thoughts of jealousy. To help you set your heart on your spouse and focus on their achievements, take yesterday's list of negative attributes and discreetly burn it. Then share with your spouse how glad you are about a success he or she recently enjoyed.
Well, like i have said, I'm working on the jealousy part (slowly getting better) but Jason hasn't recently enjoyed any success that i can think of so i will just have to keep that in mind and move on to the next dare.
Maybe i should congratulate him on finding such good friends that were under my nose all along!
(Its one of my friend's boyfriend that he's become such good friends with)

Anywho, onto the next one.......

The lesson:
Love makes good impressions

The Dare:
Think of a specific way you'd like to greet you spouse today. Do it with a smile and with enthusiasm. Then determine to change your greeting to reflect your love for them.

I like this one and i think Jason will too altho he probably wont even realize I'm doing anything or making the effort!
