Tips for a Stronger Relationship
--------------------------------------------------------
"Love isn't just a feeling. It's a will."
--------------------------------------------------------
We always thought of love to be coming unexpectedly. Everybody believes that you'll never have to chase for someone, because in the right time, the right one will come. As we all say, true love waits.
You might say that you love someone when you felt something awesome, fairytale-like feeling when you're with him/her. But does that feeling last long? Longer? Or even a lifetime? Let's take for example 'some' married couples nowadays. They've been married for years, centuries, but did the feeling they have when they're still in their wooing stage stay? Many, or shall I say most of the married couples tend to forget what they've vowed for each other. The promise of giving each other the deepest love, fullest devotion, and tenderest care. Did it stay? Maybe some, maybe a little. Couples would end up loving their partners for a lifetime just because they have to, and not because they really do.
Of course, nobody wants to have that kind of relationship. So you, I mean we, should protect our commitments with our partners. And to have a healthy relationship, both should make ways to keep it working. Below is the list of my effective ways to a blissful, fruitful and stronger relationship.
1. Communication.
A simple call or text message letting your loved one know how much they mean to you could possibly make their day; a good-morning-greeting, a sincere take-care-reminder, and a sweet good-night-message. Lovers who are in LDR could relate to this. Don't waste any single moment without talking to your loved one.
2. Honesty.
Lies would always be lies, no matter how small or big it is. And lies are unforgivable, especially for girls. You might lost someone's trust if you lie. Always make sure to have an honest relationship. Honesty might sometimes lead to misunderstandings and little arguments but at least there's no lie between the fight.
3. Say 'Sorry'.
Saying sorry doesn't mean you've lose the fight. Sometimes, you just value the person more than your pride. Prefer to say sorry by losing your pride, rather than hurting someone's feeling just because of your damn self-esteem.
4. Stay sweet.
Always maintain that spark you have during your first date. Don't let those butterflies you felt on your stomach during your first kiss die. Let the love live by those sweet and cute moments together.
5. Eat together.
The couple that eats together, grows fat together. Hahaha. Food is one of the most essential stuff that should be shared together. It's not the price of the food, it's not where you eat, it's not even the taste, but it's the moment you shared with someone.
This tip is not so common in maintaining a stronger relationship. In fact, this was only my opinion, and based on my own experience.
6. Let him/her be in your A-list.
Set priorities. You might have some other important matters like work or studies, family, carrier and even health, you should always find time to be with your special someone. In every decisions you make, always ask him/her. When you need someone to talk about your problems, call him/her. He/she would be glad if you find him/her worth the trust.
7. Set adventures together.
This stuff would really make your relationship much more interesting! Go on adventures that you both like, or you could also try adventures that either of you loves, or you could also have adventures you think neither of you can do. Adventures like this could help in knowing your partner more; plus the quality time you'll be spending together, just the two of you. ♥
8. Speak your mind.
Since you have time together, try to open up. Any topic, anything that runs into your mind on that very moment you're together. Tell him/her you're happy, or sad, or feeling awkward, or feeling safe. Appreciate him/her if you love the times you spent together. Tell him/her if you aren't happy anymore, and try to fix things if possible.
9. Not perfect. Just right.
Being perfect is far from being right. You might be perfect, but you're not always right. You may have all the luxurious things, you may attain a professional degree, you may have the most prettiest face, but loving someone truly and caring for that someone would always be the right thing. It's not the material things you can give, it's the love, true love, that counts.
10. Let him/her feel it.
Above all, it's always important to let your loved one feel how you loved them. Doing the tips above could possibly be some ways of letting them feel how they mean to you. Say 'I love you' and never fail to say that magic word. Always let them hear what your heart says.
Again, this is from my personal opinion only. But just have a try on these things. I may not be married yet, but my perception of a perfect relationship is to have the above things.
Keep the love. ♥
UP for this one maraj...

ReplyDeleteCommitment while somebody is in a normal, healthy adore romantic relationship is continuous and enjoyable. Excitement caused by Romantic Relationship Advice Dependancy is unreliable, ungrounded and in actual fact exhausting even when you are generally pumped full of energy.
