Have you ever learned how to be in a good relationship? It's a skillset. A practice. It takes conversation, and effort, and trying new things. It is constantly changing and evolving, so you must do the same to match it.
Your partner has a love language they need to have recognized and used. Do you know it?
Your partner needs certain things from you in moments on intimacy. Do you know what they are?
Your partner needs a specific form of consoling after a bad day. Have you asked them how you can best support?
I could go on forever...but even if you think you know these things bout your partner, they are constantly changing! It may not be the same as it was yesterday or last year.
Talk. Ask questions. Communicate.
One of the main reasons my partner and I have such a solid relationship, is because we are aware of stagnant habits. If we are sitting down to watch tv together more than a few days in a row, we actively do something else for an evening that involves conversation and deep connection.
If you need ideas, let me know!
