Whether you have been married for 30 years or have just come back from the honeymoon you may think you know everything about your husband but here are 10 things that you may not know that can bring the two of you closer than ever.

1. You need to recognize when he needs space. The second that he walks through the door after a long day of work is not the best time to be spouting off the latest gossip or the problems that you had with the kids that day. Let him collect his thoughts and settle down before you begin barraging him with conversation.

2. When he is really listening to you there are cues that show whether he is listening or zoning out. If he is responding with one word answers and not engaging, he is probably not listening. If he repeats info and offers suggestions, he is.
