Marriage can be wonderful experience. However, it can go down hill after being married for several years. Sometimes you just seem to lose your magic that you once had in your relationship. This can create allot of stress in your life.

In many cases you may be stressed out over finances or how to raise your children. This is often because you failed to come to the conclusion about what the two of you wanted before you got married.

Where most of these problems occur is when the two of you don’t spend time together. All the arguing and lack of communication take over the relationship. It’s time that you start taking time for one another again.

For starters you should set time aside each week for just the two of you. You can have a romantic dinner and stay in. You could go out for a dinner and do some dancing. Go do something for just the two of you.

Text messaging is something that has really caught on. Every once in awhile you can send your loved one a little romantic message. Don’t over do this as they will start to get used to it.

Get creative and be romantic. Start thinking of things that your partner enjoys doing and appreciates. This could be breakfast in bed, buying them flowers, and chocolate.

If you can’t spend time together or communicate well then you will need help from an outside party. Usually this will be a marriage counsellor or maybe even the pastor at your church. This will require a huge commitment and time on your part. This really is the final straw in the relationship. If a third party can’t help you then your headed to a divorce.

A major part of dealing with stress in your marriage is catching it on time. This means you can’t feel like there is space between you. You need to make sure your communicating at a high level in your relationship.

As a wedding planner and ordained minister, and a happily married woman, I constantly read and think about what keeps a marriage happy and healthy. Here are some of the best tips I know for you:

1. Don’t underestimate the importance of sex. Don’t even think that you always have to be in the mood for sex to have it. Sometimes, establishing that physical bond is more important than sleep, or that great new book, movie, video game, or even baby! How often couples need to have sex is an individual as the couple, but here’s a good rule: Barring illness or absence, never go more than two weeks without having sex together. The closeness and intimacy you create together goes far beyond the bedroom.

2. Never go a day without saying “I love you.” Several times a day is better. Your partner needs to hear it, and you need to say it. Never assume,”Well, he knows,” or “My actions speak louder than words.” Maybe, maybe not. But the words are powerful. Say them.

3. Some experts say that couples need to touch in some way at least 5 minutes a day. Five minutes a day! I think couples need to exchange loving touches at least 15 or 20 minutes a day minimum. Just holding hands walking to a store or restaurant, a quick hug or pat on the back walking by, or a peck on the cheek at an unexpected moment conveys a lot of love and can cover a lot of small misdeeds!

4. Make time to do things together. No matter how busy you are, go out to eat or to a movie, or do some other activity you enjoy at least once a week, just the two of you. This gives you good memories to think about, shakes up your routine so you don’t get in a rut, and gives you something new to talk about besides the bills and the kids if you have them.

Following these four rules will give you a good beginning to creating the kind of marriage that will be satisfying and happy throughout your life. They are only a start, but if both of you keep thinking and reading and learning, your marriage will just grow better and better.

Springtime is usually the time when love is in the air, but summer romances also open the door for summer infidelity. A long vacation away from each other and you don’t know what will happen.

Typically, nothing, but occasionally the draw of the long, hot summer nights, a little drinking, and a sexy person next to you at the bonfires can spell trouble for the already troubled relationship.

If the two of you have agreed to take your vacations separately and have no intention of seeing other people while out there, and then you happen to meet someone else while you’re out and about, the first thing you should do is think it through. How long have you been together, and what do you stand to lose from cheating? Hurting someone else is never a good idea, especially if your partner has been faithful and supportive through your relationship.

Sometimes, though, things just happen. You have no intention of breaking up with your partner, and you feel terrible. You need to tell the person you cheated with. This means falling on your sword, as it were, and admitting that you’ve made a mistake. This most likely means that you are going to hurt the person you just had an affair with, but the sooner you get honest, the better. Saying nothing and then going home, only to have to dodge calls from them or avoid them is unfair to everyone involved.

Do you tell your partner that you cheated on them? That is a very private matter. The answer is determined by how well you’ll be able to sleep at night and live with yourself. How badly will it hurt them, will they be able to forgive you and move on, or would telling them be the end of the line? There is no easy answer. Telling your partner that you cheated in order to make yourself feel better is low and only shows how selfish you really are. Not telling them so you won’t get in trouble is also low. The question you need to ask yourself is what is your motive for wanting to tell them?

If you’re unhappy with your relationship, cheating is not necessary, just bite the bullet and break up. If you love your partner but are thinking about cheating, then there is something missing from your relationship and you need to talk about it before you decide to cheat. Open communication from the beginning is the best thing you can do for all involved, as cheating hurts three people; you, your partner, and the poor hapless sap that got in the middle.
Wounds can be healed after an affair. Couples forgive and move on, the problem is that they do not forget, and you maybe in for years of testing and proving that you are trustworthy. The bottom line is that it just doesn’t seem to be worth it.

There are many ways where a couple can test if they are in a ‘true love’ relationship!

* Just by ‘wanting’ to be with each other every minute of the day can indicate this. Quite often though, the average couple only feel this way at the beginning of a relationship but after some time, however, this ‘wanting’ leads to acceptance, or, non-caring of each other’s differences and opinions – sometimes to the extent of boredom and your partner may want their freedom again to explore new ground. At the very worst, your relationship could turn abusive!

* An eager urge to ‘please’ can also indicate ‘true love’. But for fear of the situation becoming too BDSM in nature, care must be taken not to overdo the ‘pleasing’ urges unless your partner reciprocates at the same level

* Romantic encounters and interludes assist to develop ‘true love’ whilst maintaining a healthy, vibrant Soul, and, romance can be applied at all stages of a relationship

* A deep commitment toward understanding each other’s feelings can suggest ‘true love’, and, an even deeper commitment to act on that understanding can test that ‘true love’. But whilst this suggestion to ‘true love’ is very commendable and ideal, very few relationships venture into such depth of understanding of/for each other – because in reality, the power of suggestion between couples is the opposite – each wanting their needs and desires to be taken care of

* Caring, protecting, supporting, adapting and developing are signs suggesting ‘true love’ and lucky is this relationship because you chose your partners based on true values, and learnt to live within these attributes with each other – very difficult to attain and maintain – and for some, unattainable

* Being supportive and caring in a crisis or sickness is indicative of ‘true love’ and any one couple can develop and maintain these qualities because it is part of our nature to want to help someone – so much more if they were our loved ones

The above indicators are exactly that – indicators of how ‘true love’ can manifest in a relationship, and whilst the above are most positive attributes, one must always be aware of their negative counterparts – always ready to plague relationships as well. Accepting the bad and enhancing the good is the ideal relationship stance and will aid considerably toward the advancement of ‘true love’.

Of course, there is always that ‘lucky’ couple who find ‘true love’ instantly, who never argue, who will travel to the end of the world for their partners, and who only have eyes for each other – do you personally know anyone with such a relationship? If so, learn from them and grow.
