Rekindle The Fire!

At least each couple goes through that phase in their relationships. You feel like there is so much 'distance' between you and your partner yet they are right beside you. It is completely normal, don't freak out, something can be done about it.

So what can you do..

Vacation

Plan one just for the two of you or even with your family if you have one. A vacation takes your mind off the pressures of everyday life like work. You are able to focus completely on yourselves due to the absence of distractions. Make it a habit so you are able to always get time for yourselves and really connect with each other once in awhile.

Dates

You need to take time to take each other out just the two of you. It doesn't have to always be the man taking the lady out, the lady could also do it once in awhile...it would actually be a sweet surprise for him. Going on dates enables you to appreciate each other. You are able to take time to look good for your partner and they appreciate you for that. Take each date as a unique one in itself and give it just as much attention as the first one you ever went on. I mean.. people always get excited when they get asked on dates..

Compliments

These might appear really minute and insignificant but there is so much  power in complements. Everyone gets happy when they get compliments so imagine what it does to your partner when you give them one! Give your partner compliments when they have made that extra effort. Could be they look really smart, they accomplished something....they get the feeling you are paying attention to them

Kisses

Kisses are a way of showing affection. Someone once told me love is all about kisses and i tend to agree with this statement. Kiss your partner more often. This is like constantly reminding them that you love and appreciate them.

Gifts

Remember when you just started dating, the gifts were endless and you always felt special when your partner gave you one. Gifting your partner gives them something to always remember and keeps you in their thoughts. Your partner gets the idea that you are always thinking about them.

Do things together 

Distance comes about because you; see each other less, talk less and are less involved in each other's lives. Find simple ways of spending more time with each other. You could; commute in the same car, have meals together. Just anything you could do to be together more would make a huge difference in your relationship.

Hold each other

Holding your partner is a way of recognizing your partner's presence. Hold hands when you walk together, sleep cuddled up together. This tends to bring you closer to each other. 

keep that fire burning😘

The most important ingredient in Love

Some people tend to think that as long as there's love, nothing else matters. It's all they need. But how many people have been so in love but still ended up not working out... many!! It gets people wondering what could possibly be greater than love ?!?! Some people even stop believing in love thinking it's overrated. Well here's the thing about love, both partners want to feel appreciated, acknowledged, respected, understood... all that..it is what forms the bond in a relationship. But there's also that other side of every human being that doesn't want to fail, everyone wants to win or at least die trying; we all want to be right, have the superior opinions, win the arguments. It boosts our ego, makes us feel valuable, indispensable. So what happens in a relationship; what breaks them.. It's easier to receive/ take than give as it is less risky, less demanding, I mean all you have to do is sit back, relax and receive . Humans are however reciproca

Valentine Love

I totally made that word up but give me a chance to explain it to you… Valentine’s is considered THE day of love; a day when people express and celebrate their love for each other.   Some people don’t buy into the idea feeling like there’s no need to have a day to do something that should actually be done every single day. I actually am for the idea of valentine’s; a day to do something just a little extra. Valentine’s however present an idea of a ceremonial love, expressing love on specific occasions then going back to a lull, being comfortable and not putting in extra effort. This could be birthdays, holidays… special occasions. So what really is a valentine love? A love that is inconsistent, absent most of the time, only presented as a gift when it’s convenient… just enough to keep the fire from dying out but not really adding any wood to fuel it. This kind of love slowly gets toxic and becomes an obsession, an addiction. It’s harder to leave when the droplets
