Maintaining
a healthy relationship is not the easiest thing to do. It requires a hard work.
It might be a bit difficult for some individuals to keep up with their personal
growth. When committing to a relationship you are in essence sharing yourself
with someone, therefore it is expected that you would maintain the health of
this important union for the success of the partnership. An example can be
taken from starting a programme, at a time you lose motivation. You stop going.
To keep the momentum going and the love flowing we are going to do some
preventive maintenance so you don't lose your motivation. These ideas will keep
your relationship stronger.
Create
Memories. Relationship is not to be boring, engage in
different memorable activities together and have some fun. Create great
memories by taking up a new hobby, or travelling together. Most any activity
you do together that you enjoy will produce positive memories. So do something
that you both can enjoy and develop wonderful remembrances of the times. These
memories will serve as calming balm when your relationship goes through trials as
most relationships do. You can reflect back on the good times and they will
sustain you while going through the rocky roads on your relationship journey.
The times you share will be forever with you as your relationship grows.
Be
Sensitive. People who act rough, aggressive and
abrasive don’t find it sweet. Some say they prefer a more overt personality,
others say they like the conservative and timid type, and truth is we all want
something in between. Be attentive to your partner when expressing yourself. Be
mindful of your partner's perspective and opinion. Showing your sensitivity actually
reflects how much you respect and care. Your tender nature with certain situations
can boast the integrity of the relationship in the long run. And there is no
doubt the kindness will be returned with kindness.
Forget. Bad memories always surface easily in a relationship. You have to make a
great effort here to go against the wind. You are going to consciously forget
the bad things and attempt to move forward without looking back. If you and
your partner have discussed the issues and talked things through, don't keep
looking back or keep track of the irrelevant issues that have a major setback
on your relationship. Maintain focus on the positive and do not dwell on the
bad.
Have
Fun! Being with the one you love is supposed to be fun
and fabulous. There is a great deal of excitement that goes along with finding
the "one" to share your life with and making a commitment. Now it is
obvious that every waking moment will not be joyous, but you should be
reasonably happy to be with the one you chose. Don't be heavy and bring down
yourself or your partner. Make it a habit to laugh and smile as often as
possible. If you are genuinely not happy, then maybe it's time to re-evaluate
your partnership.
Date. Go out on the town! Let go of the day's stress. Enjoy the company of your
partner. Sometimes life gets us so caught up that we forget to take time for
ourselves and often our relationship gets put on a back burner. Make plans for
your date; put it on your planner and to-do-list. A lunch date would suffice in
the middle of a busy week or a quiet dinner date at a restaurant can turn a
blah day into a romantic delight. It doesn't matter the time or day, just be to
do it.
Reminisce. Go back in time within the memories that you have created and pull out
the best of the best. This is a time of nostalgia that should bring relaxation
and memories of good times for you both. Take a moment now to recall some of
your best times and ruminate over the rush of feelings you have. This is also
something you can do when you are relaxing, and it is sure to put you in a good
mood. As a thank you for those good memories and good times, pass on those
positive feelings to your partner. Nostalgia relaxes!
Honesty. The truth holds no secrets. Allowing your partner to view your transparency
will gain you respect. Honesty is something that is often requested and some
couples never totally give or get it. This is something that you should strive
for in your relationship. You will share more, trust more and inevitably love
more. Maintaining honesty is the best policy, dishonesty is usually uncovered,
besides it's not worth the pain and frustrations it can cause.
