How To Keep The Flame Of Love Burning In A Relationship

For many people, the signs of serious problems in their relationships go unnoticed. Apparently everything is going well and suddenly it’s all over. It is often difficult to identify how we got to this point, as before everything seemed calm and there was only one problem here and one there, which didn’t seem so important.

Even though the end of love can be difficult to predict, it is possible to find certain signs that will help you identify problems that may arise in your relationship, strengthen it and keep the flame of the relationship burning.

Respect: a magic word

Maybe you didn’t realize it, or maybe you didn’t give it enough importance, but every time you make weird gestures while your partner makes a comment you don’t like, you’re being disrespectful. Have you ever wondered how you would feel if your partner did the same to you? Would you interpret this as a lack of love in the relationship?

Raising your voice unexpectedly can be offensive and painful. It is almost equivalent to an insult with name-calling and profanity. It’s also lack of respect when your partner is talking about something and you don’t pay attention.

The result of this type of behavior can be a red alert for maintaining a stable relationship.

Overcoming negative experiences with positive ones

Any kind of relationship goes through experiences of all kinds. However, when it comes to storing memories, it’s always good to keep the good times over the bad. It sounds incredible, but bad experiences linger longer in the memory.

According to some surveys, it is necessary to have a minimum of five good memories to forget about a bad experience and to overcome bad experiences. Try it, be honest with yourself, and strive to save the relationship. You will see that your efforts will pay off.

Error or evil?

You should be aware that not all of your partner’s negligence is intentional. It may be that you have forgotten something your partner has emphatically asked of you. But you didn’t do it deliberately, you just forgot.

However, allegations, arguments and the desire for revenge arise. And all because of negligence or forgetfulness that, perhaps, you never thought would bring disastrous consequences for your relationship. Have you been through this? What if you forgave your partner for not being perfect?

Is it worth preventing a breakup?

If your partner has something to discuss, it is best to listen and try to find a solution to the topic of discussion. It’s not starting a “debate”, because with that you won’t be able to go far beyond the core problem. It is also not a question of shutting up and just listening to the other person’s complaint, or if you are the one complaining, that you do not find a deaf ear for your arguments.

Misinterpretation tends to result in breakup in love affairs.  It’s better to speak clearly about what you think and feel, and not interpret what you see or hear from your partner.

Assessing your relationship is a matter of great importance, and it needs to be done before it’s too late. To keep the flame of love burning requires the energy of both involved. And both sides must be ready to act accordingly. Love, when reciprocated, is always worthwhile.
