Preserving Happy Moments

Who Says You Can't Receive Flowers When You Are Old?

Usually, many men would comment that marriage is the grave of romance. I would agree to a certain extent. It will be tiring for the person to wake up to face the same partner everyday.

But, growing old with your partner is a romantic process as well. A good tip here is to buy a nice photo album with available slots inside (to put small pieces of notes). Take lots of candid pictures together and fill up the photo album with photos, stories, poems and love quotes.

Then after a decade, you have amassed a great amount of content in your photo album, you can give it to her as an anniversary gift. When you look through those photographs together with her, you can reminisce about the good and bad times together. This not only strengthens the bond between the both of you but also act as a reassurance that you have been with your spouse during good and bad times. Sharing weal and woe together is a great aspect in the relationship!

Having problems in a relationship is inevitable. Whenever one partner refuses to give in and the other partner absolutely gives in all the time, the party who always gives in will explode later and he/she might say things to hurt the other party that causes irreversible damage. Sitting down and having a heart-to-heart talk over a cup of warm coffee is a good way of being romantic. Is it about meeting the constant demands from the overbearing supervisor? Arrange for a fixed period of time after work for love making. There is a never ending amount of demands from the new baby? Consider hiring a nanny to take care of the baby.

Try to solve problems honestly and not to be defensive. Be gentle and understanding towards your partner. Discuss the correct ways to overcome the problems, either between yourself or by seeking professional help. Remind your spouse that you will always be there for her and that you are able to overcome all obstacles together.

Seeking professional help may not be a bad option when it comes to dating and living together. Some problems may not be solved with expertise. Such examples include large loans to be taken care of and where the couple has trouble communicating with one another. For financial help, couples can seek the help of financial institutions and banks by obtaining the option of debt-consolidation loans. For couples having communication help, it is advisable to seek the help of professional family counselors before the relationship jumps into divorce proceedings.
