4.) Hold Hands
Remember in the beginning when you were always holding hands? What happened? It’s crazy how the simple act of holding hands when you are out and about or even sitting on the couch will rekindle old feelings and keep your relationship exciting and fresh.
5.) Listen
One of the biggest reasons for relationship failure is communication issues. Listening is a skill that you should always work on. So when your partner is talking, put your cell phone down, look away from the TV, don’t think about what you need to say, just listen. Look at them, show them that you understand what is going on. By doing so, you are showing them that they matter and what they are saying is important.
