1. End your tiff sooner: to stop an argument dead in it's tracks, take time out with a joke. "Our work shows that humor is a great way to ease tension," says Howard Mankin, Ph.D. Try lightening the mood by saying, "I'm voting you off my island!"

2. Snuggle when he's sweaty: Being exposed to your man's sweat reduces stress, says a new study from the University of Pennsylvania. So for a calmer you, pull your sweetie in for a long hug and kiss when he gets back from playing ball.

3. Help him unwind after work: You like to chat when you're stressed, but he'd rahter space out in front of the tube? According to a study by UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles), when frazzled, women often "tend and befriend," reaching out to others for support and advice, while men typically go into "fight-or-flight" mode, creating conflict or withdrawing. So work with this by saying, "Is it OK to chill out, then talk about our day?" Go gor a run or call a friend to give him space to cope in his own way, and he'll be ready to converse when you return.

5. Start a sexy xummer ritual: Try these simple moves that show you're crazy about your guy---and in the process, get closer then ever! Why don't you: *share frozen fruit pops on the porch while looking up at the stars *Start a water-baloon fight in the yard. It's fun, it's fast, an it'll have you both drenched and laughing. *Drag the kiddie pool out, fill it up, and hop in with frozen cocktails.
