Tell
your partner how much you love him/her. Though you think its
not necessary coz you are married and are living together
that will naturally imply that you love one another. But
believe me its not enough. It's often taken for granted but
its nice to hear those magical words 'I Love You' once in a
while.
-
Show
genuine interest in your loved one. Don't take things for
granted. Don't think that if things appear to be ok, they
are ok. Show that you care and reveal to your love that
he/she is important to you. Ask how his/her day was and if
there is anything you can do to help.
-
There
may be many negative points in your partner and you might
hate them but that's no solution. Concentrate on the
positive. Make a list of what you love about each other.
Love can make all the negative qualities vanish.
-
Make
time to be alone together. Togetherness is very important in
a relationship and even if you are very busy you ought to
spend some quiet time with your love. What I mean by quiet
time is: No television, no kids, and no distractions. Go out
on a romantic date at least twice in a month. This is very
essential for maintaining a healthy relationship.
-
Go out
on a vacation once in three months. That way you can forget
all the tensions and just freak out with your
love.
-
Get
intimate. Give your mate a long kiss. I mean a passionate
kiss like the ones when you were dating. Get cosy with him.
Be in his/her arms and enjoy each other's company without
worrying about work, kids, deadlines etc.
-
Extend a
helpful hand and do the household chores and do it together.
This way you will ensure that it's the family of the two of
you and you have to be responsible towards
everything.
-
Learn to
laugh together. Laughter is the cure of many ailments and it
will make you feel good too. Laughter can reduce your risk
of heart disease and high blood pressure also.
-
Make
every day count. Your being together is a special thing in
itself so make it special in every way. For a week do
something special for the other person. Whether it is a
phone call, special dinner or time alone, doing something
out of the ordinary is a sure fire way to show your love how
much you care.
-
Surprise
your loved one. Cook his/her favourite meal, go to some
movie and pick her/him up from his/her office, give him/her
a surprise gift, plan a date and make it special.
-
Make a
tape of your favourite songs. Music is universal and can
bring back loving memories with the first played notes.
Remember the music you used to love and how you felt.
-
Say it
with flowers. Send flowers to him/her in his/her office. Say
that you love him/her with flowers and it will surely bring
all the love that had faded back into your life.
