Recently, our MC said that we all know quite well how to complain and critisize, but that a good rule of thumb in a M is one compliment or statement of praise for every "negative".

Neither my H or I have much of an idea how to do this. It certainly isn't something either of us learned to do from the families we came from!

I know it may sound silly, but I guess I need to go back to "kindergarten" to learn how to give my H compliments.

I would really appreciate any examples of things any of you say to your spouses that are complimentary or to praise behaviour that you would like to see continue.
