    About this ebook

    What is "Dear Future Wife"...?!

    “Dear Future Wife” is more than just a mere “Playbook” about offensive (X’s) and defensive (O’s) relationship/marital coaching strategies, viewpoints, insights and advice. It’s more like a beautiful, visual odyssey through a series of golden nuggets of wisdom (or “Plays”), and actual handwritten open letters, written by myself, to my future wife; with the hopes of inspiring the hearts of those who are curious about love, invoking true godly love in the spirit of the heart, mind, body and soul of not only my future wife, but also within those who dream of their future spouse as well. “Dear Future Wife” is also for those who have already ventured into to the depths of relationships and marriage – but are simply in need of a refreshing, “kingdom” push, back in the right direction. What innocently started as a way of venting from my past hurts in the realm of numerous failed relationships, quickly evolved and forged into a passion for inspiring and empowering both men and women who are gearing up to become wives and husbands, as well as helping to prepare them holistically, to receive their future spouses. I guarantee, there’s something to help everyone and every couple in this book… taste and see! I only ask that you use the wisdom you gained during this journey, to help someone else! Pay it forward…

      Dear Future Wife - Bernard Quinn III

      Z

      A

      Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.  - 1 Peter 4:8

      Chapter 1

      Affection: a gentle feeling of fondness or liking.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Always show AFFECTION to your mate, no matter what. There’s no substitute for the action of showing love. They need to feel you. Especially when you’re mad, hurt or upset with them. Never let the sun go down on your anger.

      Hug your mate.

      Kiss your mate.

      Caress your mate.

      Cuddle with your mate.

      Lay-up with your mate.

      Make love to your mate. (Put a ring on it! Married couples only )

      Aim to please your mate.

      Dance with your mate.

      Bathe your mate.

      Massage your mate.

      Serve your mate.

      Random displays of affection should always be welcomed within your relationship/marriage.

      Fellas… Keep in mind that women interpret love through two vital avenues – attention and affection.

      Ambition: a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work; having or showing a strong desire and determination to succeed.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Always keep AMBITION alive in your relationship/marriage.

      It’s no secret… relationships require hard work and a beast like determination, especially in the maintenance department! So, keep in mind, no matter how hard it gets, REMEMBER YOUR WHY? And also, whatever you did to get your mate, is what you have to do to keep them. Always be willing and ready to go ABOVE AND BEYOND for them, because deep down inside, you know that they would definitely do the same thing for you.

      Maintain a winning mindset in all areas of your life, and in your relationship.

      Always show your beloved that you are in it to win it with them!

      Always show your mate that you are determined to win.

      Successful relationships require emotional and holistic ambition.

      Go after who and what you want, in a potential mate. (Choose wisely… Measure twice and cut once)

      Adventurous: willing to take risks or to try out new methods, ideas, or experiences; full of excitement.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Always be ADVENTUROUS with your mate!

      Always keep things fresh with them!

      Be willing to try new things, and experience new firsts with your mate!

      Keep this in mind… Be smart and be safe! Don’t do anything that would put them or you in harm’s way!

      Enjoy your many adventures together, as one, RESPONSIBLY!!

      Attractive: pleasing or appealing to the senses; appealing to look at; sexually alluring; having beneficial qualities or features that induce someone to accept what is being offered.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Always keep in mind, you had them at Hello, Hey or Hi, when you first met.

      Whatever you did to get your mate, is what you have to do to keep them!

      Keep yourself up and well maintained for your mate!

      Dress nice for them. (Wear that sexy outfit they like.)

      Smell nice for your mate. (Wear that irresistible fragrance they like.)

      Workout for or with your mate.

      Practice good nutrition; eat healthy (except on cheat day!) with your mate.

      Attached: joined, fastened, or connected to something; full of affection or fondness.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Maintain your connection with your mate.

      Don’t be afraid to love them on a deeper, godly, spiritual level.

      Keep a healthy balance of space within your relationship/marriage with your mate. (To little or too much space can prove to be a detriment to the union.)

      The best things in life come in pairs! Socks, shoes, donuts, burgers, cars… (I’m kidding!)

      Appreciation: the recognition and enjoyment of the good qualities of someone or something.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      No matter how BIG or how small of a gesture it was… Always, always, always tell your mate, but most importantly, SHOW them how much you love and appreciate them, for all that they are to you and for all that they’ve done, are doing and will do for you.

      Accountable: Is defined as: (of a person, organization, or institution) required or expected to justify actions or decisions; responsible; the fact or condition of being accountable; responsibility.

      The Play (XOXO’s) This one is HUGE:

      Always be ACCOUNTABLE within your relationship/marriage

      BE AN ADULT AND BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOU ACTIONS!

      You are not responsible for your mate’s behavior… THEY ARE!!

      Never blame your actions on your mate.

      Never make excuses for their behavior.

      No matter what you did, OWN IT! Whatever you did, good bad, indifferent or the unthinkable OWN IT, on ALL levels!

      Be willing to fess up to it and show the initiative that it takes to make things right between you and your mate when wires get crossed or there’s a misunderstanding, fight, argument or disagreement as quick as possible.

      Always take responsibility for your actions.

      Letters to her…

      Dear Future Wife,

      The road to success is always under construction. What lies ahead of us won’t always be smooth or clear, but just know that as long as God is leading us, hand in hand, side by side, the destination will always be beautiful….

      Love Forever,

      B

      Let all that you do be done in love. - 1 Corinthians 16:14

      Chapter 2

      Bold: (of a person, action, or idea) showing an ability to take risks; confident and courageous.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      The realm of a relationship/marriage was created by God to be a beautiful place of peace. So BE BOLD IN LOVE!!

      Don’t be scared to show your mate off to the world, but within reasonable measure. Discretion is extremely valuable in a relationship, but we’ll address that subject, more in depth later on our journey throughout this book.

      Be CONFIDENT within your relationship/marriage! Nothing should be off limits; LIMITATIONS = SECRETS!

      Be COURAGEOUS within your relationship/marriage! True love, knows no limits, so you should never be fearful within the confines of your union, with your mate.

      Take both uncalculated and calculated risks in your relationship. Don’t be scared to think outside the box! Try new things together. (In life, business endeavors, goal setting, in the bedroom or outside the bedroom etc.) 

      Build: Construction (something, typically something large) by putting parts or materials together over a period of time.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      For every monument that has stood the test time, and history, they all were built with one thing in common… they were all constructed on an unprecedented foundation.

      GOD MUST BE the foundation and the epicenter of the relationship/marriage, in order for the union to span the test of time!

      Build monuments of everlasting love, hand in hand, side by side with your mate. Be a DREAM TEAM

      All monumental relationships have to be well planned out, designed, and executed/built with the right building materials. (Faith, Love, Friendship, Communication, Trust, Loyalty, etc.)

      The HOLY BIBLE should be the blueprint for your relationship!

      Iron sharpens iron! (Proverbs 27:17)

      Build successful kingdom based empires together, as a power couple and servants of GOD.

      Build a family nucleus within the home.

      Build your mate up with beautiful words of love, affirmation and compassion… never, ever tear them down verbally. No form of abuse is acceptable by any means, but verbal abuse, by far, is the most detrimental. SPEAK LIFE OVER & INTO YOUR MATE AT ALL TIMES, NO EXCUSES!!!

      Believe: To accept (something) as true; feel sure of the truth of; hold (something) as an opinion; think or suppose.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      BELIEVE in your mate.

      Assist GOD in molding your mate.

      Celebrate your mate’s accomplishments!

      Be your mate’s #1 FAN and CHEERLEADER!

      Uplift your mate.

      Never doubt your mate, unless there is a blatant trail of deception, disrespect or a behavior pattern that suggests that he or she is obviously being evasive.

      Believe in the love that you possess for your mate, enough to give them grace, especially when things are rocky. Do unto them as GOD does unto, and always extends to us… HIS LOVE, GRACE and MERCY

      YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE.

      Balance: An even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady; a condition in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions…or to keep or put (something) in a steady position so that it does not fall; offset or compare the value of (one thing) with another.

      The Play (XOXO’s):

      Seek the throne and the heart of GOD together, as one.

      Pray together.
