10 Ways to Create a Strong, Intimate Relationship and Get Closer To Your Partner
Romantic relationships are not fairytales. They are not like what we see in the movies or the TV. Relationships require love and care. You have to put in efforts for them to last. Given below are a few of the ways that will help you create a strong, intimate relationship and get closer to your partner.
1. Use your relationships to make you feel complete from within
No one else can complete you except for yourself. When you are in a relationship, you share your life with your partner. You should come to a relationship as a whole person without trying to become ‘one’.
2.See the spouse for who they are
Do not see your partner as what has been represented or with your idea of them. Look at them as you don’t know them well because, in this way, you will learn more about them. You will be able to see how they evolve, grow and change.
3.Share secrets
Spend your time telling your secrets to each other. You might think you know everything but when you sit and talk to each other, there can be multiple stores. Share your stores and secrets and engage in deeper conversations.
4.Spend some time with each other’s families
When you spend time with your partner’s family, you will know them more. You can see how they treat people who are close to them and how they are around them. You can get to know their upbringing and background.
5.Go on double dates
Similar to how spending time with your partner’s family will enable you to be closer, spending time with friends will do the same. You can see them with their friends and get to see their fun side that comes out when they are around their friends.
6.Unplug together
Your partner might be sitting with your partner while holding your phone and being mentally absent as you sit there. Unplug together and do not use your phones and laptops, rather spend some quality time together without any distraction.
7.Unpack a reoccurring argument together
Get to the root cause of the problem issue that keeps on coming up and unpack it. Do not blame each other but look at how it affects you and ask your partner to do the same. When you are addressing the issue in a calm way, you will learn more about each other and have a great chance of solving it.
8.Expand the heart
Expand your heart and be happy. Happiness comes from being close to someone, so to create intimacy, bring forward what is good in you. After recognizing the good that is within you, you will easily recognize it in your partner.
9.Focus your attention on giving more love
Genuine happiness is about loving ourselves and others. When you love someone deeply unintentionally, it means you are loved deeply by others. It also makes you feel good about yourself.
10.Meditate together.
When you meditate with your partner, you practice mindfulness with each other. This will make you mindful of the feelings of each other and will allow you to connect on a much deeper level. When you medicate with a partner, you can practice grounding techniques together and apply them in your everyday life experiences.
