SUCCESSFUL RELATIONSHIPS TAKE WORK

Communication is a key piece of healthy relationships. Healthy couples make time to check in with one another on a regular basis. It’s important to talk about more than just parenting, intimacy is also a critical component of romantic relationships.

Every morning you have the opportunity to make your relationship sweeter and deeper by recommitting to your mate. Feeling respected and cherished by the one you love makes life much nicer.

Between kids, careers and outside commitments, it can be difficult to stay connected to your partner. Yet there are good reasons to make the effort. In one study, for example, researchers found couples that reported boredom during their seventh year of marriage were significantly less satisfied with their relationships nine years later.

To keep things interesting, some couples plan regular date nights. Even dates can get old, though, if you’re always renting a movie or going to the same restaurant. Experts recommend breaking out of the routine and trying new things — whether that’s going dancing, taking a class together or packing an afternoon picnic.

FLAUNT YOUR SEXY SELF

Your man ain’t looking at you the way he used to? Here’s the lowdown on how to be sexy for your boyfriend and put the spark back in your relationship.

Only you know what makes you feel sexy — whether it’s wearing sexy underthings or getting in a great sweat session at the gym — but there is one feel-sexy secret that’s universal: Talk about sex.

Look and taste the part. Instead of using regular lotion, try something with shimmer and scent on your body, especially your arms, legs, chest, and shoulders. Try a flavored formula, better yet something that you know your boyfriend really likes. This way, he’ll get a sweet, sexy surprise when he leans closer to you for a kiss. Studies show the brain processes scents in the same area responsible for emotion and memory. So when your guy smells cookies baking, this might remind him of his mom, and he’ll feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Choose a scent specially for sex, and he’ll think about you between the sheets every time he smells it.

Stay healthy. Being healthy and having enough sleep and exercise is always glamorous. It makes you feel good about yourself. Therefore, you have a better chance of feeling sexy and exuding sex altogether. Being healthy is an important part of being and feeling beautiful. On top of that, being in good shape makes you feel less cranky, which is always a good thing for your guy.

Celebrate the good times.

Couples who celebrate joyous moments together have the happiest, most trusting, and most committed relationships.

Stay flirty. Just because you’re over the courtship stage and have settled in a serious relationship doesn’t mean you have to stop being playful and flirty. Keep the spark alive by going out of your way with little things so your man always thinks “sex” when you’re around.
