The time is right.

The time is always right for a wonderful time together. Take what you have and make the best of it. So what if you don't have a lot of money. Take a wonderful walk together, or rent a movie and make popcorn at home to get your dating in. Build a relationship first and then when the money starts coming in you can make up for those dates where you had to just walk together. Just don't dwell on the fact that you finances are not the best. Work around your monetary situation and move on with the love.

Making it easier to be apart.

There are times in our relationships when we have to be apart for extended periods of time. These are not easy on our relationships. It is important to express you love before you leave for this time apart. Think of it as making up in advance for lost time. You have to look at it as trying to fit part of your relationship that you are going to miss into the time frame before you leave. For example if you normally have a date night every Friday night then you need to try to slip in two date nights the week before you leave. Same goes for sex you need to put a little extra effort into your intimacy before you leave. This makes the leaving easier on the partner staying home because it shows that you are going to miss the time together, also. Then the same thing goes for when you get back, which always seems a little easier. Your relationship shouldn't have to suffer because you have to be gone. Doing it right can build your relationship stronger. Being apart allows you to have some alone time and it also can build desire as you anticipate the return home. Use the time apart as a building exercise instead of a absence.

Make a plan for sex.

Anticipation is a great tool when you put it into your intimacy. Here is what I want you to do. Tell your partner that in, lets say three days you are going to make the most passionate love to them. Now for the next three days you have to tease them into a frenzy. Don't give in and make love early take the full three days to excite your partner. Now you have set the image of some great sex coming their way so you have to make good on your promise. Plan out the best sexual adventure you can think of and then spring it on them on the day you have set forth. Most likely if you have teased them enough they will be like jello in your hands. Fun ways to tease them might be kissing then sexually then saying that was great but wait until our special day, or having a count down, letting them know it is only 2 more days until they are going to get it. Whatever the way you want to tease is okay and it will help build your anticipation, too. This way you both will be primed and ready for the amazing sex you will have.

Do something new!

Today is a great day to try something new for the two of you. It can be anything as long as it is something you normally don't do. You could go to a museum, or an art gallery as a way of broadening you artistic appreciation. Find a place near your town that neither of you have ever been to and go check out what it offers. This activity helps build adventure in your life and by putting adventure in your life you will make a stronger connection between the two of you. Other things you can look for might be things at your local college, they seem to always have something going on that is most likely out of your normal range. Pick up the paper and look at the entertainment section and find different events that might be going on around you. Things like ethnic festivals, specific trade shows, or even collectible or antique shows. The most important part is that you experience whatever you do together.

The family that loves together. (Click in this Title to got to the Free Hugs Campaign Site)

In our quest to have the greatest relationship in the world we sometimes forget that part of our love involves our families. We tend to shy away from some of the things that have helped set our love in stone. Do you know anyone that has trouble getting close to their partner or someone who has self esteem problems? Well, most likely that has stemmed from events in their childhood. Whether it was from an overbearing parent, an alcoholic parent, emotional abuse or physical abuse it can create a monster that may secretly rear its ugly head. A lot of times relationship problems are bred from these memories of youth, and it can take a lot of energy to get over them. With the help of a caring partner it is possible, but this is not my point.

As we set our relationships in motion we are not just facilitating a better state for ourselves, we are affecting the future relationships of our children. If we cannot get over our dysfunctions, our children may be destined to repeat our inadequacies. To help prevent that it is time for us to get our relationships in order and get our family on the loving train. You have to start by showing your children it is okay to be in love and not just for a day, but for a lifetime. You have to explain to them how to put the other person first and how to share. Make sure they know that feelings are important and that caring isn't something to be ashamed off. Let them see you kiss and hug, hold hands as you walk with them and most important show them how to be a rock when someone is having a hard time. I realize that every child won't respond the same to these actions, but you are giving them a great head start on having their own relationships.

Don't stop there. Maybe it's not too late for your parents? Do the same things around them as we have just mentioned above. Maybe you could rekindle something in them that they haven't had in a long time. Show them that your relationship is strong and you’re making it stronger every day. If your parents have a great relationship, then maybe you should be taking notes as you watch them. Family love is a gene, and it can be passed down from generation to generation, but unlike DNA this is one genetic gift you can change if you don't have the right combination. It may take some therapy or even sacrifice on your part, but it will be worth it.
