1. Love Yourself
A person who doesn't even love themselves will find it hard to believe they can love others. Whether one is self-respecting or arrogant directly impacts whether they have a sound personality. If you love yourself very much, despite having many flaws and experiencing numerous failures, you still feel confident about your life. Only when you have faith and are filled with security can you love the other person and be capable of cherishing being loved by them.
2. Cherish Each Other
The foundation of sweet love is naturally being attracted to each other and valuing one another. Only with a heart full of true love can one grow old together, accept the other's way of doing things, and have unique dreams for life. Don't be stingy in expressing your feelings of love; bravely say "I love you."
3. Spend Time Together
A simple way to measure if you love someone is by looking at the time and energy you devote to them. If you can't even find time to be with him/her, it's hard for the other party to believe that you love them. However, falling in love is easy, but living together can be difficult. When we're deeply in love, we always yearn to be with each other every day, seeing each other daily. But when we truly live together or form a family, life becomes busy. Can you still ensure that you can make time to walk hand-in-hand with them? If you can guarantee this, your love will be unshakable.
4. Communication
Frankly express your true thoughts and tell him/her what you want and why you do certain things. Only by sitting down and talking heart-to-heart can we understand each other better, right? Communication isn't just about boldly expressing your own ideas; it also involves listening to their confessions without any prejudice.
5. Arguing Can Be Good
Arguing isn't fighting; arguing is a normal part of our lives. We are all unique individuals, so naturally, we all have our special qualities. Don't be afraid that arguing will harm your relationship. Remember, in arguments, we not only learn different knowledge from the other person but also learn an important life attitude: yielding and compromise.
6. Affection
Research shows: Without affection, many animals (including humans) may die prematurely during childhood. Affection can lower the other person's blood pressure, relieve brain stress, and make them feel comforted and supported.
7. Change Is Not Scary
Many girls after falling deeply in love may feel disappointed thinking: He no longer treats me like before. Does this mean he doesn't love me anymore? But you need to know that love isn't about being constantly pampered and spoiled in everything. Love requires both parties to feel sweet and cared for. He always protects you, but have you ever taken care of his heart? You always throw tantrums; wouldn't he feel tired? We all dislike changeable lives, and the pattern of love is the same. When the pattern of love changes, it might bring surprises or perhaps pain. Most importantly, we must face reality, learn to think, and adjust ourselves to adapt to the other person's changes. No matter how it changes, don't let your heart of loving him/her change.
