What is love, I have always wondered. Is it the feeling of being someone’s special person? Is it having your partner around all the time? Or is it making them feel special? Every relationship has its benefits and challenges, but a partnership of togetherness stands apart from most bonds. If one has a special place in your heart or if you hold a special place in someone’s heart, then it surely feels like heaven. But a coupling works successfully only when both individuals work hard at it; when faced with a bigger challenge, the couple responds with an even bigger resolve to stay put and grow together. Soulveda shares some time-tested couple goals for overcoming challenges and growing together.
Couple Goal #1 Keep the romance alive
Strolling hand in hand with your partner on soft wet sand as the waves kiss your feet, listening to music and having a cosy dinner together, giggling and talking through your eyes in a crowded room. All these situations sound familiar, right? It feels like relationship goals. Indeed, feeling loved and feeling worthy of being loved is a very fulfilling human emotion.
Contrary to popular belief, romance is not just important early on in a relationship, it is crucial throughout life. Like dew drops falling on the green grass every night, romance is something both you and your partner must indulge in each day to relish the freshness of your bond. A surprise dinner, a family picnic, a morning walk or even visiting parents can be a moment to cherish forever, as your romance grows by leaps and bounds. One must keep the love trickling.
Couple Goal #2 Talking is where it starts…
Even in the worst of the times, try and remember that first meeting and those magical first few words. These two things resonate inside you whether you are aware of it or not. That intimate conversation, those awkward moments of opening up helped build this relationship of love, longing and fulfilment. Now, as you progress in life together, personal interests, social pressure or financial goals start taking precedence and you tend to emphasise on what you get rather than what you stopped giving in the relationship. This is when doubts and negativity creep in.
Do not let these cracks widen and destroy a beautiful relationship you built together. A simple but effective solution is to ensure that you keep talking with your partner without fail. Sharing your concerns, emotions and making your partner understand your expectations is only possible if both of you keep conversing. Just remember talking should happen when the time is right for both of you.
You can face any storm in life, surpass any obstacle and overcome any challenge by aiming for this simple relationship goal. Both of you must make a conscious effort to stay engaged and keep talking. When in doubt, just remind yourself about the journey taken so far and how it all started with simply talking. And how it will last forever also by talking.
