Our relationships are as strong as we make them, they grow with the level of love and effort we put in them. Relationships usually die down when one of the two partners start to take things easier and lighter, you can’t do that when you’re in a committed relationship with someone, you can’t just stop treating each other like you once did, it has a very negative effect on both of you. Here are six powerful ways of connecting with your partner, and all of them work perfectly! Let’s begin.
-
Hold eye contact.
This may sound silly but it’s amazing how it works, it’s a clich most people would agree with that eyes are the mirrors to the soul, they always tell the truth. Whether its during a conversation or just randomly smiling at your partner, look into their eyes, you will feel a connection on a whole new level.
-
Say thank you and please.
People think that if they are in a relationship then there is no need for the pleasantries such as thank yous and please, your partner already knows that you appreciate them. But people don’t realize the power of these small gestures, there is no harm in expressing your gratitude if your partner does something for you no matter how old the relationship is. Respect should always be a priority in every relationship, it not only brings people closer but also keeps them close.
-
Hug for a longer duration.
You may be hugging your partner multiple times each day, but are you actually holding them close to you and enjoying the moment? If not, then you should start doing it right now. It has been scientifically proved that hugging releases the feel good hormones in the body, so you will not only feel closer to your partner but also notice a positive change in your mood and energy.
-
Spend some time alone.
After a while, when the honey moon period ends, life may get the better of your relationship. It’s okay to be practical and focus on other things as well, but the relationship should not take a back seat. Take out time for each other, fix one day at least just for the two of you. No phones or any other distractions and do something together whether it’s going out or staying in, but use this time out to truly communicate with your partner and just talk! Never underestimate the power of a good conversation.
-
Ask them out every now and then.
This is simple yet powerful, when you ask your partner to be with you even after you guys are together, it makes them feel wanted and loved. It will give them a sense of security and confidence. This will increase your commitment to each other. It is not only playful but also romantic. Go on ask them to go out with you again and maybe even have a date night. Never stop having fun with your partner.
-
Forehead kisses.
These are often not given much significance, but this is yet another way of connecting with your partner on a different level. These are the cutest kisses that make your partner feel safe with you, it will make them feel it’s not lust that’s keeping you together but love and that you can take care of them. So never ignore the power of a sweet little forehead kiss.
