5 simple ways to keep the loving fire burning in your relationship
1. Take your partner out on dates, regularly.
Regularly. It doesn’t have to be in expensive restaurants, an afternoon in a park for a quick picnic or front row tickets to a baseball game would be enough. Just as long as you find time to be with your partner.
2. Engage in meaningful conversations.
Be the instigator and initiate the conversation if your partner is the silent type. You can start off by asking how his day went or what she and the girls talked about yesterday at brunch. Open communication will keep yourselves updated with each other’s lives and you’ll know how she/he feels about your relationship.
Changing the decor, exploring fantasies, or even something as small as buying new lingerie (or underwear, if you’re a guy) will go a long way to keeping your love life exciting.[1] In some cases, spicing things up may include working through underlying relationship issues with your partner.
3. Experiment in the bedroom.
A healthy sexual life is one way of ensuring that your relationship is still heading in the right direction. You can change the decor, explore fantasies, try out new positions or even something as small as buy new lingerie (or underwear, if you’re a guy) will go a long way to keeping your love life exciting
4. Forgive easily.
Fighting is normal in a relationship. I mean those who don’t probably don’t talk at all just as long as νισℓєи¢є and abuSe aren’t involved. The best thing about a fight is the kiss and make-up part because then you get to cuddle with your loved one and talk about what started the fight and the two of you can collaborate and find healthy solutions to avoid the same fights in the future. It is very important that you don’t hold grudges because this can absolutely ruin your relationship. No matter how angry you are you have to forgive. Don’t let the sun down on your anger.
5. Invest in out of town or out of the country vacations.
Couples who travel and explore places together will more likely be happy and in love than those who stay in one place. Renew your passports, have it stamped and book tickets to places you’ve always wanted to travel. Seeing new sights and learning new cultures will bring your relationship a notch higher.
