There are certain keys in daily interactions that will help you move from struggle and compromise to sweet and profound happiness.
After decades of a happy marriage myself and coaching couples for over twenty years, I've distilled things down to their most critical essence. When these specific actions are done consistently, they make a marriage thrive. If they aren't done or done poorly, a relationship is often shriveling on the vine, no matter how much a couple loves one another.
Love is a choice, moment by moment and day by day. Practice these keys to build a healthy and happy relationship.
Keys for Making Your Love Life Sweet!
♥ Highlight and validate what you love about your partner.
♥ Consistently surprise your partner with random, out-of-the-ordinary gestures of love.
♥ Ask for what you need and want! Your partner is not a mind reader.
♥ Make regular, quality time together a high priority.
♥ Give your partner ample space to be an individual—
then your partner will crave spending time with you!
Do these things regularly and watch the love and connection increase! Practice doing one or more of them well and you will be on your way to a happy and lasting relationship.
