5 Ways to build a happy and lasting relationship

  1. Start journaling – start journaling regularily .Write down those special moments and journal about your times together .This builds memories ! Then when you hit on a obstacle in the future you can look back on your journaling and remember those special moments together …
  2. Explore – rediscover your sense of discovery and adventure .Find something that interests you both and make a day of exploring that together .If you live near caves or a wood go explore and have fun and rediscover that playful side again …
  3. Its ok to say sorry – If you make a mistake and need to say sorry to your partner say it soon ! Often we wait too long or struggle with our pride at having to say these words .There is no shame in apologizing when we are in the wrong and it takes a strong person to apologize .So say it soon and say it like you mean it .
  4. Be your authentic self – Do not ever try and be someone you are not just to keep your partner happy .Eventually you will be miserable in all the pretending and for trying to be something you are not .Be your authentic self and your partner will love you as much as you love yourself .
  5. Generosity in Compliments – Be generous with your compliments with your partner .If you notice your partner doing something nice for you compliment them .We often feel something nice about someone internally but never voice it .So compliment the next time your partner does something nice for you however small it maybe .We all love being appreciated
