This post is made in respect of Steemit In Nigeria (SIN2) Conference which has been slated to hold between 30th October to 4th November, 2018. And so all SBD generated would be used to make SIN2 conference a success.
I often wonder what goes wrong in relationships. Why does the sweetness and all at the beginning fade away after some time? Why does this sweet love suddenly goes sour? These questions and more sure have answers to them. I'll like to share some tips and experiences.

A romantic relationship is the most fundamental component of our lives. There is really nothing as difficult as loving one another and there's also nothing as easy as loving one another.
We should realize that a relationship is the coming together of two different people from two different Ethnic, Religious, Psychological, Educational, Financial backgrounds and so on.
The way or what you think about your partner’s actions, intentions, and words; and how you interpret it is very important because it also affects you in one way or the other. For example, jokes. The way a man will take a joke is most times different from the way women will take it. Things that pisses a man off might be comedy to a woman and vice versa. So, our ability to understand and interpret actions and reactions is very key. Always strife to see the best in your partners. Note that no one is an island.
You should not that constant appreciation of your partner predicts an increase in your relationship satisfaction. Take time to always let your partner know how much he/she means to you. You sure mustn't get tired of doing this. Sending a spicy Text Message and Planning date cannot be overemphasized. And learn to say Thank you often.
Especially women, if you go out and come back with a gift of a pencil, it touches their hearts deeper than when you come back empty-handed.
I don't mean you should always buy pencils anyway #smiles
It is a known fact that Couples who Play together Stay together. We need to understand the place of fun in any relationship. You don't only play and have fun at the beginning of the journey. No man is too old to be called "baby" by a woman and no woman is too old to be called "baby" by a man. We sure need to continuously rekindle the fire of love in our relationships. Have fun! Forget who is watching.
There is this question I've always seen and heard everywhere and that is;
Do men want respect more than sex?
Several people said men prefer being respected than have sex. Funny! Its true that men always love to be respected, but Sex? No way! No man prefers anything more than Sex. To me I stand to say Sex is a man’s greatest need! And I know its true. When you and your partner (in marriage) have an amazing Sex life and ultimate satisfaction, it sure predicts a better relationship for you two.
It might interest you to know that hundreds of couples determine their relationships with good sexual satisfaction.
Note these few things,
When you're having a conversation with your partner, make sure you stay away from your mobile phone.
Make your past a forgotten issue. Your partner doesn't have to suffer for your old life.
Keep building your attraction level day after day. Even when hurt, know that attraction can build over time. Keep it up.
Nobody can change you. Never expect to change your partner. You are not God.
Forgive before offences come. Don't hung up on small things. Let them always fade away quick.
Always Pray together. This is the key to it all.
Lastly, long-term passionate love is determined by sexual intimacy, shared affection, happiness and the presence of God in ones life.
To win your partners heart in any relationship, there must be mutual Faith, Respect, Trust, Honesty, Transparency, Commitment and so on...
