If I have to compare relationships with eatables, I would say that a healthy relationship is like chewing gum. Chewing gums have no end, are forever and no matter how much you chew it, it never ends, stick together strongly even after being cut into pieces several times. In the same way, your relationship should be strong that you both always end up getting back together irrespective of anything that goes wrong. But one thing that bothers me is that after chewing gum for a fairly long time, it tends to lose its sweetness, right? Does that ring a bell? Well, you guessed it right, relationships also tend to lose its sweetness with time, I assume that is the last thing you would want in your relationship.
To be honest, it depends on the couple if their relationship retains its flavor even after a long time of being together. You get lots of chances throughout the year to maintain the thrill of being in love and keep your passion of love alive, so that cannot be used as an excuse. Birthdays, anniversaries, valentines day, all of them are just an excuse to make each other happy. Why else would people buy chocolate day gifts? So, listing down a few ways to add in your relationship after a long time of togetherness.
Little Little Surprise
You know what is the best thing that keeps the excitement of a relationship intact? Its surprises. Well, initially in a relationship, people surprise each other to instantly make a partner happy but all of it goes out of the window with time. That is simply because, with time people start putting less efforts to keep the relationship exciting. This chocolate day, add sweetness by surprising your love with chocolate day gifts, what can be sweeter than chocolates? Like this, Little little surprises should keep going throughout the year, or I should say throughout life. I would just say that it is a perfect way to maintain the thrill and increase the joy.
Open To New Experience
You know in the end of all these years of being together, what really counts? It’s the experiences that you both have collected together. Since you have been together for a fairly long time now, you will know that when you look back, its the memories of everything you did together. So, if you want to add sweetness and keep your relationship fresh, be open to new experiences. When people eventually get closer, they stop or limit themselves to new experiences in some way, that makes a relationship boring, or let’s say tasteless. Experiences add a flavour to your relation, so, always keep a bad ready.
Compliment Each Other
You should never underestimate the power of compliments. Remember how you used to flood each other with compliments in the initial days of dating or marriage. That is because you paid attention to every single detail about each. So what if things now are not new, you will stop telling your partner that he or she still looks good? Or cooks delicious food? Complimenting is an act of appreciation and appreciation is required throughout life.
Love Like First Day Of Relationship
The last point is important too as it says that you should love your partner in the same way as you loved him or her on the first day. You should still be excited to see each other because c’mon, it’s the same person who made you skip your heart beat. One should never hold back from showing your love just because you have been doing it for years.
These are some ways how you can add sweetness to your relationship after being together for a long time.
