love is in the air


So it happened again, ya went and fell in love again. At some point in our lives ,we meet that special someone and we start acting like school kids all over again and we are infatuated with the new romance and we do our very best to keep a hold of that person.

Two people come together and find love. He woo's her, he court's her, he opens door's for her, he takes her to nice romantic places, he buys her nice gifts, he drives her every where, and he does what ever he can think of to keep her. Not to mention the lady as well, she will also do the same things in order to please her man.

And as time goes by, one or both of you begin to lose that spark we once had and we start thinking about greener pasture's. Wouldn't it be great if we could just meet, get together and live happily ever after? Well yes but that is not really how it works anymore. More and more people split up now a days because they have lost that spark which used to keep the relationship alive. After awhile things change, people get a little too comfortable with each other and stop doing those things they used to do for each other, they eventually just sit at home with each other and think things are ok between the two of them. So the greener pastures come along because this relationship had gotten so dull and boring. So things happen and people break up, it is sad to say but it is true and happens more and more often now.


We all want and need to be more successful in our relationships so we do not end up hurting more people or break up family's that have been together for some time. Because sometimes this happens quickly and sometimes this happens after having kids and huge family's now gets involved as well and we get heart broken kids too.

Do not we all just want to keep that spark going in our relationship's so we can be happier with each other forever? Yes we do.

For most women, that is all we really want, a happy ending in the fairy tale to be in real life. I am certainly not speaking for every woman so please do not take any offense.

We do not have to go from relationship to relationship, from up's to down's on roller coaster ride's till we think we are happy again, we can fix and keep what we think we are losing right now.

I have here below some tips that can help everyone get and keep that spark that they once had and are looking for with that special someone. Start here and build that romance you so long for.

  1. Date night

    We all know that the world had gone and gotten into a big rush with people working a lot more hours these days and spending a lot of their extra time on that brand new electronic that just came out. So just slow down and make a date night once a week. Go out to dinner and a movie, do whatever you want to do but just get a date night with out the phones in hand and enjoy the night together.

  2. Have a family fun night

    Usually we all just work and go home and sit in front of the television and veg out and play on our phones. Well go ahead and make a regular family fun night and do whatever you want to do. Stay in and watch a fun movie together or go out and see a movie on the big screen that just came out or go out and do something much more fun, like go bowling, go for a walk or a play at the park, make a nice project at home that everyone can do, whatever you do, just make the family fun night a regular thing, this will keep family's closer together.

  3. Watch the sunset

    make a night, go walk the beach and watch the sunset together. This is very fun and relaxing at the same time. You get to see what new things you can find on the beach and then just sit or lye back and watch the sunset. It is most romantic and sensational.

  4. Make dinner

    surprise that special someone with a home made candle lit dinner. So just make dinner for the two of you, set the table, turn down the lights, put on some nice music and light some candles. This is also very romantic and your mate will love this idea.

  5. Communicate

    Always, always remember to keep communicating with your mate. This helps break barriers keeps you both connected and also gets things out of your system. Talking with your mate is a key essential to keeping your relationship growing strong and healthy.

  6. Go for a Sunday drive

    Take your mate for a nice long, peaceful Sunday drive and explore the sights you can see. You could Even drive up to the mountain and see what can be seen up there, there are a lot of amazing view's you and your mate will love to see.

  7. Don't get too comfy

    We all get a little more than comfortable with our significant other and we start getting bored and we stop doing the things we had used to do in the beginning of our relationship, this is when things start to go bad. So please, you can never stop doing all of the things we like to do in the beginning of every relationship. Like take for instance, leaving little love notes around, buying flowers or candy, getting out of town for the weekend just the two of you or even meeting for a midnight swim somewhere. You have to keep doing these things as if you had a new guy or girlfriend every week, this is the benefit, you do not have to get a new relationship every week, just keep the one going strong you have now and keep it that way.

I think we all want to be able to keep that spark going in the relationship we have so we don't have to keep going up and down.

I know for me personally, I definitely like the old days when two people stayed together through thick and thin, and a promise was something someone kept. Grandma and grandpa were people to look up to. Lets all try and work to keep that spark with the people we love so we can live longer, happier lives, shall we?

I feel sad about the lack of committment I see in these times. I don't think people should stay in an abusive relationship, but I see so many couples having children, and not getting married. If you won't commit yourself to a relationship, how can you expect to raise a child and do a good job? The child deserves two mature parents. My parents stayed together through terrible times, and fought like hell too. But I always knew they loved each other, and they were always there for each other when the going got harder. I've been married 32 years, and hope I follow their example. It's not easy, it's hard work. But it's worth it.
