Touch your partner. Very often.
Not necessarily intimate,high-definition squeezing...
A simple hug,a hand on the shoulder,a warm handshake,a poke at the ribs...can achieve the same purpose.
Touch is a very efficient and natural way of communicating affection,care,trust and love.
Babies who are touched and carried look healthier than those who are touched less.
Touch is more than a sense...
It is a language,a tool,a gift.
Touching someone says one thing:I am one with you.
In other words,we are the same...I love you.
This explains why in a caste system, some are regarded as 'untouchables'.
Touch is a great leveller...and a gap-bridger.
Sometimes,distance may make touch impossible.
What do one do?
Get a picture or frame of your loved one.
Keep it in a visible place and touch it from time to time.
It communicates part of the feeling.
So,are you in love with someone?
Don't just look...
Touch.
SECRET #15: DON'T BE SO QUICK TO JUMP SHIP!
So the relationship is no longer as rosy as it was in this beginning.
And there is this new,smoking-hot person catching your fancy.
Compared to this new person,your current partner looks out-classed. Worn-out. Dreary.
And you want to bolt.
Hmmm...Be very careful.
Truth is that after the initial months or maybe a year of starting a new relationship,everything may become normal and to some,boring.
Some may abandon the now-boring relationship for a new adventure leaving a string of break-ups along the way.
This is the recipe for an unfulfilled life and ultimately,disaster.
In love, patience is key.
Just as your parents stood by you from your infancy till now that you are fully grown.
In love,a lot of time is spent on 'stand-by'.
If your two-year relationship is now boring,maybe you are the one lacking in creativity.
Re-invigorate it.
Do new things with your partner.
But don't just run away.
If your partner is abusive and incorrigible
And has exhausted many 'second chances'
You can leave.
But make sure that this new,smoking-hot person asking you out
Is not just another flash in the pan.
SECRET #16: TEACH...AND BE TEACHABLE!
Love is not just a playground...it is a learning field.
It is an experience that should change your life and broaden your world view.
Find something you can teach your partner...something meaningful.
How to cook.
A language.
How to be more organised.
How to relate better with people.
How to play an instrument.
How to be more caring.
How to give.
How to save.
How to love...the list is endless.
Be Teachable...no one knows it all.
Express willingness to learn at every opportunity.
And apply everything you learn.
It iis not only good for you...it thrills your partner!
If both of you teach and are teachable
Then your love will not just be a bucketful of 'I love you's or a carton-load of kisses.
It will be something concrete.
