People often think that a long lasting relationship takes work,
but love is the opposite of work. Instead, improve your
relationship the easy way.
Steps
- Take a break. Eat. Rest. Get yourself together first.
- Think design. If the problem still exists, get creative.
- Imagine a more perfect life. Toss around ideas. Play with
possibilities. Express how you'd like to feel.
- Try new routines and make them fun. Make a special time to make
love every week. Then put on the music and straighten up your home
(do the dishes, pick up the towels, etc.) to help get in the
mood.
- Connect the problem with sex and love. It's basic: Doing the
dishes = a mellow partner = more sex and more love.
Tips
- When you take care of yourself first, you'll be in a better
mood and most problems will disappear.
- Love is a flow of information and energy between people. Open
to the flow.
- Too often the problem isn't the relationship. It's a poorly
designed life. Working on your relationship is hard. Designing a
better life is fun.
Warnings
- Never try to talk out problems when you're grumpy or tired. In
low moods, life is full of problems.
- If anyone is violent or abusive, it's time for outside help.
