Love can be complicated, and we all need help keeping everything in check when it comes to the matter! Here are ways to keep the connection strong for a long time!
- Be Loving: Start and end the day with a hug and a kiss.
- Show Gratitude: Thank one another for what you each do on a daily basis.
- Don’t Take Their Emotions On: Acknowledge that they are feeling a certain way, not you.
- Encourage One Another: When your partner is negative, try to stay on the positive side.
- Don’t One – Up Each Other: Spoiler Alert – one upping matches are not productive.
- Stop Beating Up On Your Body: They love your body and don’t want to hear you talking badly about it.
- Men, Tell Us We’re Beautiful: And smart and awesome and inspiring – a compliment can go a long way.
- Make Time For One Another: Whether it’s a date night out or couch time at home – doesn’t matter.
- Be Patient With One Another: There has to be room to be human, make mistakes and grow.
- R-E-S-P-E-C-T: Respect in marriage looks a lot like love. Â
