Ever noticed a happy couple holding hands in the park, laughing their hearts out while feeding each other cotton candies? Those picture-perfect pairs which are too good to be true are only possibly seen on movies. Oops! Do not put an immediate conclusion to that. There are still happily in love real life couples who still hold hands fifty years after taking their vows. Become the awesome twosomes and turn on the “honeymoon mode” in your happy and healthy relationship by doing the right things. Keep it healthy and successful by following these smooth-sailing tips:
1. Always go back to the real reason why you are together.
While it is nice to be a good parent to your child, you also have to be a good wife to your husband and vice versa. Your offsprings are the fruit of your love for each other. They are there because of you two. Both of you are not here because of them. In other words, you do not stay together for the sake of the children. Instead, the kids make your bond more intact. In the first place, it was the love which brought you together.
2. Know what makes him or her happy.
Knowing each other is an everyday work in progress. Exceeding the getting to know stage, at this point you should have mastered the basic likes and dislikes of your spouse. Whether he likes football more than basketball, action over romance comedy films, and a heavy rice meal over a vegetable salad, it is important to take note of what he likes. Indulge him often in these sources of happiness and he will certainly appreciate it. Rather than whining everyday and constantly checking his smartphone like a suspicious girlfriend, why not just try to do everything with love and concern?
3. Reassure your partner every day.
Do not just sulk in one corner and think about how your partner does not appreciate all your efforts. Worst case scenario when holding up your resentment, you might look for reassurance somewhere else or from someone else. To avoid this issue, express your gratitude more often. It is a good way to keep admiring each other every day. Make every day a Valentine’s Day by making your spouse feel special all the time. The key is to acknowledge his strengths and to understand his weaknesses.
4. Engage in some humor.
Marriage is a sacred thing. It is not something to be merely laughed about or something that can be easily let go of like your latest gadgets. On the other hand, learning to share belly laughs can help straighten crumpled areas on your relationship. Taking it from the old cliché, “Laughter is the best medicine”, do not forget to exchange daily giggles by making each other laugh. What a nice way to bond with your loved one.
5. Spend quality time with your partner.
Allow time for each other even if your work gets on your way. No excuses. Making an effort to do this can make you stay longer together. This simply means you value your family more than your other priorities.
6. Promote individual interests.
Before you were united as one, you were two different persons first. Aside from maturing as a couple, you also have to grow individually. Respect each other’s individuality by letting each other pursue what is close to your hearts. If he likes to go biking with his friends and you want to do yoga, go ahead. Give each other some freedom. This way, you remind each other why you fell in love with that gym buff or that health conscious woman.
Your spouses are not like your cell phone accessories or your mobile back cases that serve as add-ons to your smartphone. You married them because you pictured and hoped to have a future with them. Bear in mind that you need to maintain how you see each other. Like how Kangaroo Care works for babies, your partner too needs your touch therapy to make them feel secured and comforted. Frequent hugs, cuddling, holding hands, and forehead kisses keep the relationship warm. Make certain that the spark does not fizzle, instead make it ignite.
