Before saying "I do"... what gives a relationship the best odds of success? A few considerations around the wedding vows... might just save your life
To Say “I Do”
The Fade
At first, they always put their best foot forward.... now, no longer single... they've let go a little. The Fade - that place where relationships... just... you know...
A Wellness of Love
Sure, relationship takes work. Sadly, ,most people put in the wrong work and are shocked that things don't work out. Worse, others rather trade up partners before investing in themselves and their relationships. Refreshing your love is so well worth the effort for short term and long term happiness
A Refreshment
Coasting along in their typical average marriage, Mary and Jim get confronted with a challenge that exposes their relationship to reality. Time to refresh everything. Face reality. Build their dream love all over again. What was that trigger? Will they make it? Every relationship requires maintenance and refreshments.
A Little Vitamin D
When you have a good thing, you do all to upkeep it, right? Well, romance needs a bit of upkeep too. Using the analogy of sunbathing to talk about keep love fresh
Too Fast?
Nothing like that rush and sweet giddy feeling of falling in love. Nothing like that state of anxiety wandering if this feeling is real or will last. Can one fall in love too fast? Does it even matter how fast? Just maybe, let's slow down just long enough to find the sexy in falling in love... even if a bit fast. Trust me, it's worth the fast read. (play on words fully intended)
The Deception
Poor Will. The man used to know how to get the ladies. He had many lady friends once upon a time. Now, Will is drowning in his sorrows wondering what has happened to his game. Who is deceiving whom here?
When Passions Collide
Growing apart and needing breaks is tough to navigate inside of marriage. Sometimes passions do collide... and how one goes about compromising says a lot about the long term survival of the relationship. A scene that could have ended pretty badly had conversations not taken place....in this collision of passions
Before Stepping In
Sometimes... one has to just find a way to shake off the stress of work and not let it slip into the personal life (and vice versa) When one can create space to be cool, who knows what wonderful opportunities can flourish
Fatigue
As a man, there are certain needs only my lady can meet. It can be super frustrating when she just won't help me out with those needs. So, how do you compromise? Worse, what happens when you're too tired with fatigue to think straight to negotiate right? Today, we look at one way romance is often challenged and ruined by fatigue.
