These gestures of affection often make for great stories and set the benchmark high every time you step on the next level. It doesn’t have to be expensive, but the thought behind making your partner happy makes a huge difference in strengthening the bond and showing your seriousness. It’s also a sweet feeling to save for a special occasion and splurge on someone to mark a special occasion. From caring about each other’s likes and dislikes to keeping the spark alive, keep the ball rolling, and plan things for an exciting romantic life.    

Weigh up your relationship

Although there is no official scale to measure the success rate in a relationship, one can easily assess it by understanding some simple principles. If you can trust your partner and feel content to have them in your life, you are surely on the right track. If there is a sense of doubt, uncertainty, or feeling of dissatisfaction, figure out the source of the problem and nip it in the bud before it turns into a festering wound. Do not take the escapist route or leave it on the partner to resolve it, take initiative and discuss it frankly at the right time. It does take a lot of effort and courage to open up to your partner, but once you can break the ice it takes no time to get the best relationship in the world.
