If you want a great relationship then you have to work hard for it. Like everything else, it takes work to make something work. If you don’t want your relationship to become the same old cliché, where the magic exists only for the first few months or years, then take regular action. Keep the spark alive or bring back the magic and then keep the excitement in place even as your relationship changes and evolves with time.
Start writing and noting down your moments, of joy, of sadness, of anything and everything that you shared and did together. When you feel detached, take a look at that journal. You can make the journal in video format as well. It will remind you of why you are together.
