A kiss, a hug, a look in the eyes - small things that fill your soul.
No matter how strong and special your relationship is, you always have to work on it and keep that spark that adorns it. Without constant effort and progress, at some point you may realize that you are stuck in a routine and that your partner just doesn't fulfill you anymore. And all this could be prevented if you worked on your relationship in time.
Sometimes it's seemingly ordinary moments that make you feel more intimate, like talking about your day or taking a walk with your pet.
If you want to stay happy, loved and deeply connected, these are some small steps that will strengthen and improve your relationship.
Ask, don't guess
No matter how well you know your partner, it's dangerous to assume what they think or want, especially during difficult times. Even though you're close, it's impossible to read his mind, so ask him what's on his mind and what's bothering him without jumping to conclusions.
Communicate throughout the day
It is very likely that you work in different workplaces that are far away and you do not have time to meet during the day, so it is important that you at least maintain regular communication in some way. Take the time to text, call, or simply share an Instagram meme that made you smile that morning.
Share bad moments too
When we feel bad, it's easiest to keep everything to ourselves, although the best way to get rid of negative feelings is to share them with
others. Real intimacy happens in moments when we take off our vulnerability in front of our partner and reveal to him without hesitation what bothers us.
Find common hobbies
Do you find it difficult to find enough time for the things you enjoy and for your partner in addition to all the responsibilities of the day? It is best to combine these two things and find a hobby to practice together with your better half. If you don't have any particular interests in common, you can always find an exciting hobby to try together for the first time. In addition to enjoying recreation, this time you will also spend quality time with your partner.
Take a walk together
Walking is one of the rituals that a large number of love therapists recommend to couples facing a relationship crisis. And just 15 minutes spent together each day can bring enormous benefits to your relationship. In this part of the day, talk about how you imagine your future, what you hold against your relationship partner and what you would like to change in your relationship.
Create routines
Small rituals can drastically improve your relationship, so it's important to establish some sort of routine in your relationship, whether it's pizza every Friday or watching movies on Saturdays. These routines will become part of the week you look forward to. Even though you are busy until the end of the week, you will know that it will soon be a weekend to enjoy with your partner.
They disconnect together
We all spend too much time on our digital devices and need a break from the digital world from time to time. Therefore, try to use a part of the day every day to spend time with your partner, completely away from the Internet and social networks. This way, you won't be tempted to check your Instagram feed or reply to messages during a conversation break, but you'll stay fully present in the present moment.
