Unlike the reality game show.
Our lives last more than an hour.
So we need to nurture the relationships in our lives that count.
Here are some easy under 5 min investments that will bring you way more value than the game show.

1. Bring your spouse a cup of their favorite coffee.
   My husband's version of coffee is a cold Pepsi, so be a detective of your honey and get them exactly what they have every morning.
   This will gain you positive points if you get it right and negative points if you give them what you like or get their favorite drink wrong.
   So be careful!
2. Take a chore off of your spouse's list.
   Have this be something that they would never expect you to do.
   And DON'T do it when they are around because it might be interpreted as you are trying to get them to do a chore that you want to have done.
   
3. Come home with your sweetheart's favorite sweet.
   Perhaps donuts, candy bar, or a cookie.
   When I am in a bad mood Rod will bring me home mini M&M's;-) Rod gets in trouble for a minute because I am watching my weight.
   Then I grab the candy, melt into a sugar high, and thank him later for being so kind.
   
4. Bring your spouse lunch.
   You will be able to spend more time with them and all their co-workers will be envious because you have such a great relationship.
   
5. Before you take off for your day, grab your spouse and kiss them passionately for at least 20 seconds.
   
6. Call your spouse and leave them a voice mail telling them you are so happy that they married you and that you are looking forward to spending the rest of your life together.
   
7. Unload the dishwasher.
   This is my husband's favorite.
   He feels so loved when I do this.
   LOL
8. Pay attention to something small that your spouse would like but put it back because they didn't want to spend the money on themselves.
   You will score major points if you give this gift that you noticed that they wanted.
   
9. When you wake up tell your spouse that you miss them and want to spend alone time with them.
   Then make a date to do this.
   
10. Remind you children that your spouse has had a long day and then put them in a bubble bath.
    O.
    K.
    this might be a hot tub for men but it works just the same.
    

So there you have it.
10 ways to make your spouse feel loved under 5 minutes.
Have fun and reap the rewards.
