Hi 2 year love Affair,

It seems like your wife and her sister have a strong emotional connection. It is important to talk and spend time with your wife. Be interested in things she is interested in. It seems like your allowing her to plan everything. Ask her out for a date. Get reconnected be taking a dance class together. Set this new us time rule in your home. When you come home from work, you should say hi to the kids, (If you have them.) and then tell them mommy and daddy are going to spend 15 minutes talking. The phones should be off, and the kids sent to play. Talk about your day. laugh and have fun. Do not talk about problems and bills. To connect, share your hopes and dreams with one another.

It is really important to talk with your wife about spending time and talking with you. It is special to have a sister to be close with, but not to the point that it interferes with the marriage. Your wife should be able to have a relationship with both of you. Have agreement with your wife to where you want to start having more time with her. Remember, it's not the length of time, it's the quality of time together.
