The initial spark in every relationship always gets extinguished at one point in time or the other. It is the responsibility of the couple to put in effort to light up another flame, but this is not easy as it may sound. Once this spark is gone, most couples, including the married ones, tend to shy away from the effort and break up. To avoid a heart-wrenching scenario like that, there is a need to act before it is too late. The following tips and tricks would help you stay in love, forever and ever:

 

Always make eye contact while flirting

Whether you met your partner online, or at a part, the initial spark was most likely ignited when you met them for the first time. Eye contact is crucially important for most human beings. Eye contact was used by the people in the dark ages to talk to one another before the development of language. It speaks a language that love understands. You just have to look at your partner the way you did to ignite the spark in the first place. The eye contacts combined with a wink here and there would remind them about the origination of the spark. You should never let do of the flirting.

 

Your dressing speaks volumes

Dressing up nicely for your partner gives them reassurance that you still care about them.  Let it be a lazy Sunday afternoon, remember to look the best that you can. Whether it is 10 years down the road, they would still notice and appreciate the effort you’re putting to impress them and they might reciprocate that.

 

Listen More, Speak Less

We tend to ask our loved ones how their day was but we never really feel the need to listen to what they have to say. Make sure that you put effort to change this particular habit of yours. Your loved ones always need someone they can rely on, some who would just listen to what they have to say, even if it’s not something important. Your constant refusal to hear them out would drive them away.

 

Remember to give presents occasionally and travel more often

The Christmas and birthdays shouldn’t be the only time your partner should get a present. If you want to ignite the spark back, make sure you’re going beyond the expectations by surprising them now and then. Traveling together could be a way to keep up with one another.

 

Set your priorities straight

Nobody likes to feel unimportant. Making a proper work-life balance would allow you to manage your life in a much better way. Don’t jeopardize the relationship by getting work get to your head all the time or by hanging out with your friends too often.

 

Always be there, genuinely

Let it be text messages or calls, always stay in contact. Distance shouldn’t affect your relationship. Constantly reminding them they are important is as important as the actions to prove that.

 

Simply telling your partner you love them won’t be enough to revamp the relationship on its own. You would have to show your love and affection no matter how sincere these feelings of yours, because ultimately, ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!
