Falling in love is easy. Staying in love is hard. At the beginning of any online dating relationship, love can feel sweet, intense, and thrilling. But as time goes on, the relationship falls into a routine. And for some, this might as well be a death sentence.
Do you sometimes think your relationship with your Latina girlfriend is becoming stagnant? Sometimes being too comfortable with your partner isn’t necessarily a good thing.
You could be missing out on the old romance that brought you together in the first place. In the worst situation, you start taking each other for granted. If you’re not careful, the little arguments and the small grudges could build up and spill over into a long argument.
To avoid the worst outcome, Lovers Day April serves as a reminder to celebrate your relationship and make your partner feel special.
While the origin of National Lovers Day is vague, some sources believe the unofficial holiday is based on St. George’s Day - a religious holiday celebrated in many parts of Europe which also falls on the same date, April 23rd.
So if you’re looking to rejuvenate your relationship, here are a couple of ideas:
Technology can be our best friends and our worst distractions. There’s nothing more reliable than having your phone in the palm of your hand.
But when the reliance on your devices becomes too much, it can start disrupting your relationships.
Because there’s nothing more impersonal than occasionally looking up from your phone while they talk to you about their day.
To reconnect once more with your partner, make it a goal to detach from technology while they’re in the room.
Make it a habit to turn off your phone screen and focus your attention on your partner. Even if it’s just a small action, it could spark the connection both of you may have felt was fading.
A great way to spice up the romance with your Latina lady is by creating a new tradition or by making new memories. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a big gesture or expensive dates.
You can be as creative as you want. Have both of you always talked about doing something together? It could be going on a trip, trying a new activity, or learning a new skill together.
Do new things together. Be open-minded. From trying different restaurants to participating in a public seasonal event, creating new memories and traditions is a wonderful way to re-explore old feelings.
More importantly, have fun. Relax and take things as they come. To borrow a quote from Winnie the Pooh, “we didn’t realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun.”
There have been several studies that show that a simple touch can trigger the release of Oxytocin, “the Love Hormone.”
Upon further reading, studies continue to prove that touch signals safety and trust. Simple touch calms cardiovascular stress and soothes the nerves.
So work on reconnecting your emotions with the power of touch. Remind each other of the meaningful connection you’ve built together.
Additionally, touch is a powerful non-verbal communication tool. Whether it’s a pat on the back, a warm hug, or a kiss on the cheek, touch can communicate positive emotions like love, gratitude, and also sympathy.
As lovers, take National Couples Day as a sign to embrace your partner in honor of your love together.
Are you and your partner constantly busy with your daily schedules? Not having enough time for each other can hammer the coffin nails of any relationship. Because what would be the point of having a relationship if you can’t spend time together as a couple?
To combat this problem, start leaving heartfelt messages for your partner as they go about their everyday life is another way you can spice up the romance.
Because nothing says “I love you” quite like a romantic message. From quick texts to handwritten notes, love messages for your partner can take many forms.
More importantly, it can brighten your partner’s day and put a smile on their face.
If you’re having intimate troubles in the bedroom, dabbling with role-playing might help improve relationship satisfaction.
In order to feel the honeymoon phase again with your partner, find ways to reignite your physical senses.
According to a few online sources, there are 5 benefits of adding role play into your bedroom activities.
What does your partner see? Sometimes we’re so focused on ourselves that we forget what our partners are trying to say. The role-play allows you to see what ideas your partner is getting from you.
Each partner gets to express what they think the other partner needs or wants. It can be surprising - sobering in fact - when you realize what your partner truly thinks about what you think about their needs and wants.
It’s a fun way to open up communication between couples. Roleplay helps break down walls and get good conversations started.
Some deep feelings can be revealed. In a roleplay scenario, it might be easier to express deeper feelings that you otherwise would feel uncomfortable talking about in reality.
It can help heal a relationship. When roleplay is used as part of a bigger therapy plan, it can be the building block for healing.
Sometimes even taking the role of the opposite partner can work wonders and open everyone’s eyes and see how they are viewed by the other person. It’s a sobering experience and an important one if you truly want to make a relationship work in the long run.
In the end, it’s the little things that matter in every relationship. The time you spend with your partner, and the jokes and laughs you both share are something you can’t recreate with someone else.
That’s why if you’re looking for a chance to celebrate your love, then National Lovers Day 2022 could be your year.
To borrow a quote online, “Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to accomplish something big, that we fail to notice the little things that give life its magic.”
