Relationship Help – 3 Keys To True Love
Everyone wants true love. We dream about it, we watch movies about it, we work hard to get into relationships to find it. We are hardwired physically with intimacy needs about true love.
Then, when we get into a relationship, it feels great at first. We often feel some stirrings of true love. But over time, the longer we are together, it seems like true love starts to slip away some. The person who felt so right in the beginning can start to feel less right after a while.
Finding true love usually ends up being easier than keeping true love. If it was easy to keep it, we’d all still be with our first high school crush. How then do you keep true love from slipping away? There are some key factors.
The first thing is to realize that there are phases to all relationships. The honeymoon “there’s only you” phase will not last. The next phase is the me/us period, where separation and getting on with your own goals starts to become important. But true love isn’t gone in this phase, it just changes its feel.
Another thing that is vital to understand with true love is that it is about giving as well as receiving. You have to give your time and loving attention to your mate regularly. And your mate has to give some loving attention to you. You cant keep true love if you are doing all the giving or all the receiving.
A third key to true love is to PLAY. Play is vital to a healthy, loving, intimate relationship. Play with your mate on a regular basis, in bed and out. Dont let the burdens and responsibilities of adulthood and job kill off the play in your relationship.
So do you play often with your spouse? Is a date night a regular part of our schedule? If you have forgotten to play or gotten out of the habit, a little focus can bring it back fairly quickly. Playing together for just a few minutes several times a week can do wonders for keeping true love alive.
True love, then, requires some focus and attention. If you do not give up when things get tough, if you give some time and attention to play in your relationship, you can actually keep true love alive. That and keep learning more about it and you can keep it alive with your mate.
