You know I love Soul Pancake. I've blogged about it before, and I love the new series, The Science of Love. The filmmakers take ordinary couples, and have them live through an experiment. This particular one had one partner think about things they really liked about the other one. Just by doing this activity, the partners were more attracted to one another.
Which brings me to another idea. Relationships grow and change. They evolve, and honeymoon phases fade out, you see beyond the aura of love, and begin to know the real person. BUT that doesn't mean that things need to be different, or that the chemistry needs to die. Relationships take work. Are you willing to put the time and effort in to make yours last?
If you said yes, then I have a piece of advice: tell the person you love every so often why you love them. It could be something as simple as saying you love their cooking, you love their sense of humor, or how they're always there for you. It may be hard at first, but the more you let them know that you love them, the more valued they are going to feel. Flowers die, chocolates get eaten...but the words you say will last a lifetime.
