Love Relationship Advice
For most people, it's pretty easy to find love. The challenge often seems to be to be able to make
it last. Keeping your love for each other strong is not impossible. You just have to understand
why it falls apart and make sure you, and your partner, avoid those traps. That's where love
relationship advice comes in handy.
With the advent of online dating sites there are more ways than ever to meet 'the one'. It's a much
better method than cruising the bar scene looking for someone special. For most couples the first
few months is pretty easy. You are falling in love and you think the other person is perfect. You
can see no wrong in them or what they do. And maybe there isn't anything wrong with the way
they, or you, act in the early stages of a relationship.
They say that familiarity breeds contempt and if that's true it would go a long way to explaining
why the longer a relationship goes on the more it tends to break down.
Here is a list of some of the things you, and your partner, need to be on the lookout for in your
relationship. These are common traps that many couples fall into without realizing it. If you know
what to watch out for and can avoid these mistakes you will have a much better chance of keeping
your relationship strong and healthy for a long time:
1. Unrealistic expectations. As I said above we think our new love can do no wrong. As our
relationship slowly changes from falling in love to being in love and all the day to day stresses and
mundane tasks we must face, it's easy to lose some of that early 'glow'. This can be a pivotal time
in many relationships, sometimes the couple will think that they just don't love each other anymore
and break up.
In reality, in any long term relationship, you will spend a much longer time in this 'normal' mode
than you will in the early 'glow' mode. It's important to recognize that this is all a normal
progression in an adult relationship.
2. Inability to effectively communicate. Men and women express themselves differently...that's just
the way it is. The good news is that you can learn to communicate with your partner effectively, if
you're willing to take some time to learn how. The whole 'it's a guy thing' or 'it's a girl thing' is only
true to a point, and is largely just a cop out. In reality any mature, intelligent adult should be able
to learn how to talk to their partner, and even more importantly, listen to their partner. The real
question is do you care enough about your partner and the relationship to take the time?
3. Don't confuse sex with love. This may sound obvious but men and women tend to look at sex
in different ways. Women, for example, tend to look at sex as a way to connect with someone
they love on a deeper physical level. Yes, it's pleasurable, but the pleasure isn't just physical it's
emotional as well.
Men tend to look at sex as definition of who they are as a man. For them too, it's pleasurable but
it's also a way to prove their desirability and masculinity. Sometimes when a relationship gets to
the 'comfortable' stage this difference in views about sex can create problems. If one partner
doesn't seem sexually interested in the other partner it can create severe stress on the
relationship.
If your relationship gets to this point, it might help if you and your partner can remember that sex is
only one small component of every thing your relationship is made up of. While for many couples,
having an active sex life is an important part of the relationship, it's important to understand that as
you age and your relationship grows, it probably won't be quite as important as it once was. That
doesn't mean your partner doesn't love you or find you attractive, it's just a fairly common way for
long term relationships to go.
I hope this love relationship advice will help you hold on to the love you've found. Being able to
make a deep, long lasting, connection with another person really is one of life's blessings. Make
your connection last by learning how to avoid the pitfalls of some relationships.
