Romance is a significant part of a relationship. It gives a sense of happiness and excitement to both of you daily. Unfortunately for couples on the verge of breaking up, the first thing that often happens is a desperate attempt to rekindle romantic feelings. The Effort is most The rekindling action is often in vain because it does not address the underlying issues causing the relationship’s failure in the first place. But there is hope for the fire to burn again. Some ideas for regaining that “loving feeling” include:
Identify the REAL Issues Destroying Your Relationship
Before you can rekindle the romance, you must start with the problems destroying your relationship. This is not going to be easy for most couples. But ignoring them will not make the problems go away. A healthy relationship includes times when a couple can sit and honestly talk about their concerns, thoughts, and feelings about their communication, romance, and other relational topics. During these times, you are looking for underlying issues, not just who left the toilet seat up or didn’t take out the garbage.
Relationships often consist of conflicting expectations and a lack of effective communication. It may be that your relationship is not destined to last, and these conversations may bring that out. But in most cases, breakups can be avoided if both partners genuinely can identify when and why the problems occur and are willing to work together to solve them.
Go Step-by-Step to Solve the Issues
There is no magic wand, no sprinkling of fairy dust required, and no snap of the fingers that solves all issues immediately. In most cases, solving the problems facing your relationship will take time. This means that both of you will have to show patience which may be pretty trying.
The most successful relationships are a marathon and not a sprint. That means making small changes over time can lead to significant results in how your relationship works. You will still face problems, but they will not be compounded by older issues that have remained unresolved. These issues show their ugly selves in arguments, disagreements, and even within each partner’s internal dialogue. Bringing thoughts and feelings which concern you out in the open and looking for a solution together is always the best path forward.
Work on Your Communication
Communication is not only the “key to success,” it is the requirement of it. Unfortunately, not communicating is often a type of cut-off practiced with couples, and it is deadly to a relationship, not just romance.
Putting old issues to bed is just part of what you need to do. Digging up or dwelling on past hurts, disappointments, and failures only hurt any possible forward movement. Instead, identifying and addressing past hurts and looking to possible future complications is a requirement if you want to revive the romance in your relationship.
Set Aside Time for the Both of You
Another important aspect of your relationship is working on it together. Remember that time does not stand still, and neither does your relationship. This means putting in the time to do the work to create a stronger relationship that both of you will enjoy. It’s not always easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever straightforward.
Just as a garden will need plenty of water and soil rich in nutrients for the plants to grow and produce either flowers or food, a relationship also needs solid communication, patience, and addressing issues together for it to increase. So take time to water each other with love, listen and remember compliments count. In no time, your romance will bloom!
