For Women Only: How to Turn Up the Heat in Your Marriage Without Getting Burned

Even the best marriages can be better. Why not yours?

Whether your desire is to re-ignite the flame that seems to be burning dimly, if at all, or you want to add even more spice than you've got already, I have several suggestions that may put that sparkle back into your man's life, one day at a time. Your mission, when it comes to turning up the heat in your marriage, is to try several things to get that fire burning all over again.

• First up, go traditional, even if you're not much good in the kitchen.
  

By that I mean preparing a romantic candlelight dinner of one of his favorite meals. Go overboard. Get out the fancy china and silverware reserved for company, and do it up right. You want to make it something really special, so that he knows he's the center of attention.

If you're not into cooking, purchase dinner at his favorite restaurant and transfer the dishes to your finest china. For dessert, give him you. That's right, you. Be the sweet he's always wanted to indulge in. Perhaps you can provocatively dress in only your kitchen apron so that he knows what he's got to look forward to later.

• Help him relax by surprising him with a hot bath when he gets home.
  

If your husband is a workaholic and you sometimes think he's more married to his job than you, try this one. Have a hot bath ready for him when he gets home. Make sure to put in your favorite scented bath gel and have massage oil ready on the side. If you feel led, give him a back massage that may lead to other things once he's been rejuvenated.

• Next up, try greeting your hubby at the door in his favorite lingerie.

With this one, there won't be any guessing as to what your intentions are. He may be very pleasantly surprised at your efforts, and you may be amazed that his tiredness from a long day at the office is somehow magically transformed into boundless energy.

• Play it low key by getting away for a weekend together.
  

You may instead want to play it low key, especially if you see your marriage as lacking in the intimacy department. Your final mission is to go on a mini-vacation. Get away for the weekend together where you can both relax.

You can even go as far as to pack for your husband, keeping your special destination secret, but make sure to leave your expectations or demands behind you at home. Just go to enjoy each other's company and nothing else. Make sure to plan ahead to make the appropriate reservations on a weekend where he's not already called into work.

While there are no guarantees, chances are that preparing a romantic candlelight dinner, greeting him at the door in his favorite lingerie, having a hot bath ready for him after work, or arranging a relaxing weekend away together could go a long way in rekindling your marriage.

I've given you four simple suggestions for re-igniting the flame in your marriage.

But don't stop there; be creative and add your own ideas to the mix. Do what works for you, whatever that is. But do something. Then watch and wonder at where your relationship goes when you turn up the heat.
