Rekindling the Flame: It’s Never Too Late
Has the one you let get away ever left or do you simply just have some work to do?
There are a growing number of relationships, who lose touch of that spark, from the spontaneous nights to the memorable mornings. The excitement of just knowing that person is within arms reach at all times. When change plays a role in relationships due to kids, marriage, or maybe a simple domestic partnership, it puts a damper on the pleasurable times. Not necessarily because the relationship itself has dimmed, but along with major changes comes adaptation to the particular situation and in some cases responsibility. All the time that was once invested into one person has somehow been spread among other obligations and that quickly the joy of the honeymoon stages has ended. So, what happens next?
Post honeymoon stages are more like the ‘take it or leave it’ stages of the relationship. Reason being is all the layers protecting a person’s inner-core and true-self began to slowly peel before your eyes. In some cases, the relationship may grow due to the comfort of knowing your partner well enough to let down guards. On the other hand, certain things about a person such as habits, attitudes, mental or physical barriers can have you running for the hills. Post honeymoon stages can make or break a relationship, but it is up to a strong, dedicated, and willing couple to face challenges head on and defeat them together.
Maintain the flame with these five effective steps to a successful relationship post honeymoon stages.
