Marriages start out with the fantasy of riding off into the sunset together and living happily ever after. Then reality sets in and couples find it difficult to adjust to living under the same roof and romance takes a back seat. You’ve heard the phrase that people need to do the same things that they did in the beginning throughout the life of the marriage in order to stay married. You didn’t treat the relationship like a “One Night Stand” when you were dating, don’t do it now that you are married. Take time out to reverence each other, undisturbed and without distractions as often as you possibly can. It is so important to stay connected and be on one accord.
With this being a “Now” society, don’t let the beauty of intimacy and passion become a lost art in your relationship. Romance and sex are two different things. They are beautiful when combined and will provide for more than a five minute thrill. Sex is what happens on a “One Night Stand.” Make love to each other with your words, deeds and actions. It is so important to pay attention to how you speak to one another. Kind words and small gestures of loving kindness go a long way when it comes to romance. Touching each other often and lots of kissing for no reason are ways to stay in touch with each other, and keep the flames forever burning. Couples have to take their commitment to marriage seriously and make romance a part of their lifestyle. Romance is not a luxury, it is a necessity. Just like weeds in a garden when left unattended, so too can your love life spiral out of control when you do not water and nurture your garden of love. Once married and throughout the marriage take what I refer to as mini-moons to boost romance. Plan a weekend getaway as often as you possibly can. If you are unable to plan an out of state get-away, plan a get-away right at home. Turn down the lights and turn off the electronic devises and focus on each other. Order one of our create-it-yourself packages and create an atmosphere of ambiance wherever, at home or, at your favorite hotel. You can also take it with you on your honeymoon to transform your suite into a blissful escape. Find out how by visiting us on the web at; www.lovelifedesignsllc.com |
