How do you deepen your relationship?

Hey everyone,

Welcome back to another brand new post!

Today we're writing about relationships. It's about how to deepen your relationship with your loved one . If you're in a place where the honeymoon phase of your relationship has passed and you're feeling a bit lost with where you should be heading now & it's starting to make you feel bored , here are some things you can do with your partner to improve your relationship with one another.

Relationships in general aren't easy. They need lots of TLC (Tender Love & Care) and  a balance between spending time with your partner and doing things for yourself which is not easy. It isn't just about having dates & being romantic all the time. Eventually, it becomes about dealing with realistic problems together which is all part of the story. 

So if you're in similar scenario as such, I hope this post helps you with ways to improve your relationship with your significant other. 

1.) Being vulnerable with your partner

You can only get so far with dating if you don't share any stories or experiences about yourself. Relationships are built on how much you share & how much you open yourself to being vulnerable. It's about helping your partner see you in a different light & realizing that he/she cares for you even more. Whether it's having a deep conversation with one another or experiencing something together,  being vulnerable with your partner makes you both trust each other more physically & emotionally which in return helps the relationship. 

2.) Doing something together

Taking some time out from daily stress/struggles makes you both focus on nothing else but both of you. Either it's a quick getaway or a day trip somewhere, it's always good because it makes you be more present and more grateful with each other. It's about discovering something new & spending quality time together to build the relationship. 

3.) Communicate it out honestly

Part of sharing is telling your partner if you feel uneasy,uncomfortable or if you have any tension between the two of you. It's about having that courage to communicate any difficulty you face in the relationship & face it together . If he/she does not accept it or judges you for it, then he/she isn't the right person to be with . If they really care about you, they would listen & would want to make it work with you. It's a good way to see how much he/she is invested in this relationship you're in. So don't be afraid to communicate it out in your own way. Remember, we aren't mind readers so what we think is what others may think too. 

4.) Being supportive towards your partner.

Relationships are build on trust & love. By being supportive of what your partner is going through either with work or in his/her personal life, you being there to listen, help, be a shoulder to cry on and etc will help build the emotional trust between the two of you. It may be hard if you don't know your partner that well at first but it's part of the growth of your relationship. So don't be so hard on yourself if the first time round, it doesn't work. It's about trial & error - communicating and being there for each other no matter what. 

5.) Be the best friend 

It isn't all about being romantically involved all the time. When it comes to trying to be there for your partner, sometimes they might just need a friend & tbh, being their partner means you want the best for them. Do what you can to fulfill that. If they need someone to talk to, be the listener. If they need someone to some opinion over something, tell them honestly what you think. It's simple communicative things like that , that will help build your relationship deeper over time.

6.) Give it time

After all those steps above, another thing to have in mind is to give it time. Patience is virtue in this case simply cause it takes time for both of you to get familiar with having company around to do certain things & to ask trust one another. As you may know , trust is developed over time so don't push yourself too hard by setting expectations you can't meet. Sometimes the best thing works out when it's not planned. So be patient. It will work out if it's meant to work out.

7.) Don't spend every minute together.

Another thing to bear in mind is to not be clingy with your partner. Part of trusting & respecting him/her is giving them space to live their own life too. Yes they're a big part of your life but that does not mean you have to spend every minute together. By having new experiences apart and sharing them together after, changes your level of relationship because you both get to do more in your life & feel less restricted. People have problems in relationships mainly caused by lack of freedom so if you both can find a balance between spending time together & apart, it'll help you both appreciate each other's time together even more.
