Couples naturally become more complacent in pleasing each other as the relationship progresses.Notice what you do that your partner seems to really respond to. Love is subjective, we show and receive it differently, so you need to know how to love them in their language and not neglect that.

Doing The Things That Make Them Feel Loved

Be proactive about warding off threats to your relationship. Avoid lots of time apart, or unwise behavior such as hanging out with people you used to be on/off with.You can’t guarantee fidelity, but you can do your best to make the relationship the container that you each value so highly, that going elsewhere isn’t desirable.

Potential External Threats

<ul><li>Criticism: complain without blame.</li><li>Content: regularly express appreciation, gratitude, affection, and respect for your partner.</li><li>Defensiveness: accept responsibility, even if only for part of the conflict.</li><li>Stonewalling: stop any conflict discussion and call a timeout.</li></ul>

Solutions To Basic Communication Mistakes

When you listen, even on seemingly insignificant discussions, you understand your partner better and it shows you continue to give them the same attention you gave them in the beginning. Unless you are together all the time, never stop asking them how their day went. Nobody else cares enough to ask them consistently.

Listen To And Value Them

Never stop romancing them. This’ll let them know for sure you’re still crazy about them.Also still kiss them hello and goodbye. Small gestures like this help us all to experience love from our partners.

Couples Who Stayed Together

In close relationships, people are bound to occasionally say thoughtless things, or neglect you somehow. But unless it has seriously upset you, forgive them right away.Not harboring grievances is a key way we protect our relationships from internal threats. Couples that stay in love forgive each other for minor grievances.

Forgive Them

You're crazy for them; they are similarly gaga about you. But why do some couples manage to stay deeply in love, and others lose it? Social psychologist Erich Fromm gave us all a big clue when he said that love isn't a feeling, but a practice.
