Staying Connected
Did you know that it is most often small, repeated moments that build connection in your love relationships? Staying connected takes effort and life gets really busy, which sometimes makes focusing on your relationship difficult. It is easy to forget that there are simple ways besides getting dressed up for date night to show your partner you care and want to be connected. Here are things you can start doing today:
· Actively listening to each other’s day
· A special ritual to leave and reunite with each other
· A sweet text
· Finding a few minutes for relationship maintenance each week
· An unexpected hug
· Get ready for bed together
· Surprise them with a note
· Talk about a fun time of when you first met
· Celebrate little victories
Most of these things take less than 5 minutes to do! Do one, do a few, make up your own, or talk about the ones you already do!
