Rekindle A Lost Love

Love lost can be love found again.


In the beginning, healthy relationships are exciting and euphoric. It is when the couple falls back down to earth from being up in the clouds when reality often bites. As time goes on in the relationship, both parties become more comfortable and the newness of the relationship dies down. Once reality falls short of expectations, infidelity and/or a breakup can occur.


Instructions








1. Talk to the other person. Communication is key in any relationship. Just ask any psychologist or therapist. Don't dig deep into serious, heavy talk. Start with sharing stories or experiences. Talk about everything, but keep it lighthearted. From your childhood -- to personal secrets -- to your favorite things; it is when you share intimate and revealing details of your life that the other person feels comfortable opening up their heart. Resolution of the deeper issues come with time.


2. Take a vacation. Rekindle that spark by packing up your things and getting away together. Even if it is for a day or a week, choose a relaxed atmosphere that you can enjoy and focus on each other -- without distractions. Being away from other people and spending time with each other can help strengthen your bond. Dance, laugh, go for a walk, kiss -- see if the spark is still there!








3. Take a trip down memory lane. Talk about the positive memories you have with one another. Revisit how you first met. Recall your first date including details of where you went, what you ate, how it ended, how you felt. Reminiscing about the good times you had together is a way to hopefully help you remember the love you once felt for each other.
