Why should that matter? Well think about how much it mattered when you were courting. Now that you tied to one another why should it no longer matter?

I can hear it now “because I’ve more important things to do and that stuff shouldn’t matter.”

Well lack of passion shouldn’t be a deal breaker, but the presence of passion surely can be the icing on the cake that enhances the quality of your life and makes all other hard work worth it.

Here are some tips to rev up the romance in your relationship

1. Continue “courting"

Know how to play, flirt, use charm, and carve out time to do those things. Commit to consistently spend time together as a couple.

  • Visit a street fair in your community
  • Farmers’ or antique market on Saturday morning
  • Night of dinner and dancing Ballroom dancing lessons
  • Attend a play, musical, or performance Nature hike

2. Know how to communicate

Focus on each other when you’re talking. Use a friendly tone of voice and show special kindness and courtesy when you’re communicating. Which of the following strategies do you utilize when speaking with your mate?

  • Look at him when he’s talking.
  • Listen intently.

Do you know what your partner likes to do? For example, do you know your partner’s favorite:

How you express yourself through body movements is known as “body language.” You can actually demonstrate to your partner how much you love them simply by how you conduct yourself physically.

Here are some gestures you can try to expand your repertoire and promote more physical closeness. Which ones come naturally to you and which ones will be new to you?
