When we talk about love, we realize that building healthy relationships takes a lot of work.
Although things aren’t always smooth, it is definitely better to be with someone who deeply cares for you as compared to being in an emotionally draining relationship.
Part of what helps you and your partner connect well is being open to learning how to love and be loved.
Many people think that you don’t need to be taught how to be a better partner but there are so many mind-blowing things to discover.
For example, if you explore the five main love languages which include words of affirmation, acts of service and quality time, you become more aware of what your partner needs.
Aside from these five categories there are other deeper details that can make your experience with love smoother.
Try out these not so over the top love languages to further cement your love connection:
1. Holding hands
Physical touch is one of the five major love languages that we know about. It comes in different forms but there is still something special about holding hands.
Think about it, when your partner wants to hold your hand in public, you get the feeling that that they are proud to be seen with you and that they are ready to let the world know you are their bae without hesitation.
I’m sure some people are more reserved and don’t like to be touchy in public but, you can still try it out and see how it transforms your love life.
2. Randomly checking up on each another
Surprising your partner with a random call is a way of breaking from the normal routine. You might already be used to calling each other in the evening before bed, which is great, but sometimes it can be a bit boring.
Your partner might love it when you mix things up once in a while because it communicates they are still a priority even when you are busy. This could also be something you would love your partner to do more.
3. Commitment
Being committed to one another is one of the pillars of any successful relationship. It includes major aspects like loyalty and other crucial details like being willing to work through the tough seasons instead of walking away.
This is what shows that you genuinely care for one another and that you are working towards something long term.
4. Emotional vulnerability
It is great to work towards keeping the romantic connection between you alive but, you should also give room for your friendship to grow.
A solid friendship is mostly what helps you to open up to each other more as a couple and, giving each other room to be vulnerable definitely shows you understand this love language.
5. Kindness
Kindness is a major, yet underrated love language. Although there are times when challenges arise and you can snap at each other, the general atmosphere of the relationship should be filled with love.
Kind words and an understanding attitude will always be two essential ingredients that can make any relationship thrive.
