Simple Things that Can Have Magical Impact on Your Relationship

Sharon Moore June 03, 2016

Everyone who’s in a relationship, no matter how long it has been, has their own story of ups and downs, wins and losses, and fights and compromise. There is indeed no magic bullet to a lasting and happy relationship. Depending on the circumstances, every couple goes through a series of tests throughout their relationship. 

Some people feel that the ‘spark’ in their relationship has already gone down. Some had trust issues. Some get drowned in their insecurities and jealousy, and some simply stop caring for their partners. But it’s really difficult to know whether it’s about time to say goodbye. The last thing we want is to regret our decision.  

If you’re in the stage of your relationship wherein you feel like you’re breaking apart from your partner, consider these suggestions before you proceed with that heavy decision. Maybe your relationship just need some twists or a few changes to go back to those old happy days - like when you were still dating. And we have several tips and advice that may work for you. NOTE: These don’t require too much effort but they can have magical impact on your relationship. 

Say ‘I love you’ randomly.  

When was the last time you told your hubby ‘I love you’? If you can’t recall, your relationship needs some serious change. Your feelings for your partner may not have changed, but he or she needs to be reminded from time to time. Send your partner a sweet text message at work or an email. Say it randomly. Kiss randomly. Make him or her feel that your love for him/her has never changed. 

Recognise your partner. 

Be generous on your praise. It’s free anyway. Did your hubby lose some weight? Did she had a new haircut? Does he look better with his fashion style now? Tell her she’s beautiful or he’s masculine. Point out your partner’s positive qualities and be vocal about it. Appreciation may be that simple. But it’s one of the greatest things that can surely elevate your relationship.  

Get more physical. 

Physical intimacy is essential to a strong and healthy relationship. It is a gift that only the two of you share. You don’t have to have sex every day to ensure close physical intimacy. But a regular love-making will do. Research shows that couples who have sex at least once a week are happier. Show to your partner how much you adore him or her. Kiss more. Hug each other some more. Hold hands while you stroll in the park, sit side by side while watching TV, and make sure you sleep in one bed each night. 

Always support him or her. 

Be your partner’s biggest fan. Of all the people who should be supporting him or her in whatever path in life they choose, it should be you. Let your partner grow. Never be a hindrance to his or her dream. Instead, be part of it. Your partner will thank you. 

Always remember that the foundation of a healthy and happy relationship is one that’s built on little surprises, praises, gratefulness, endearment, and personal growth. It doesn’t always call for a romantic dinner date at a luxury restaurant or a trip in a yacht. Simple acts of affection like the ones mentioned here can do a long way in improving your relationship.
