LASTING LOVE

Everyone wants their bond to last...

A happy relationship doesn't just happen. It requires "both parties" full commitment. You can't have one foot out the door and expect it to work. 
Though it's not easy to make love last, the hard work you put in to the relationship will lead to a deep and meaningful connection that could last a lifetime. To make love last, you have to appreciate your loved one, support your loved one and care for them unceasingly.
If you want to make love last, then you must focus on your loved one's best qualities and not their worst...
Read these few tips:

Speak with love...

This has a very big effect. People respond well to a soft tone more than an aggressive, harsh or defensive one.Most times, its not about what you said, but how you said it.

Listen...

It's Important to express your own thoughts, needs, hopes and expectations in the and it's equally as important to hear your partner too...

Live and let live...

If you’re in an argument in your relationship, sit down then, or make an arrangement to sit down together to talk it through sooner rather than later. If there are small squabbles between you, live your life as positively as possibles! Fix what you can from your end, be the partner you want to have, and watch the positive effect that has, without a single argument.

Have empathy...

Before becoming deeply engaged in arguments and conflict, try to pause for a moment to see the other person's perspective. True partners are always doing the best they can, and if it’s falling short of your needs and expectations, try to see why before criticizing. And if there is a legitimate reason to complain, do it in a productive way rather than a fight-provoking one.

Remember why...

Choose your battles and remember what’s most important. If you want a harmonious relationship, remember why you chose your partner, and remind yourself that every day you choose to be with them and they choose you too. Let go of some of the smaller issues. 

Reconnect...

Feeling distant or disconnected? Do something fun together, take a class, learn together, grow together....something you both enjoy...
