How to Prevent A Long Term Relationship Breakup And Get The Passion Back

All couples experience rough patches from time to time; which could lead to a breakup

. Frankly, if you don't, you may find out your missing out on a really important part of your relationship. It's not a question if, but when you are going to hit that rough patch in your relationship. The question you need to be asking yourself right now is 'how to prevent a long term relationship breakup from happening to us'? The following tips may well help you avoid that heart wrenching breakup.

We can all take our over halfs for granted now and then. Life often gets in the way of your relationship and we are prone to thinking our spouse will understand. But that is not always the case. Your significant other may wonder where they come on your list of priorities. They may feel neglected and if someone else comes along that pays them some attention and makes them feel wanted, who is to say that they won't be tempted.

Why not surprise your over half and arrange a date night. If you have children, arrange a babysitter. If money is a little tight, then put the kids to bed early and cook your over half a nice dinner. Add some candles and flowers and switch off the TV. Ban all talk about the kids, job, your money issues and of course talking about family members (or suffer the consequences).

The only conversation allowed is the type you would normally have on a date night. Imagine you don't know each other. Ask your other half to tell you something about themselves, after which you will reveal a secret about yourself. Talk to your over half about their interests or passions and most of all listen to what they say.

When you've been together for a long time, it can get a little unexciting in the bedroom department. Being intimate is the bond that holds couples together. It isn't all together about having sex (a man would ask "It isn't?"), but holding hands, listening, conversation, cuddling, affection, being there when necessary and maybe most of all trusting one another.

If you have fallen into a rut where the only intimate occasions you see are those on a TV set, you need to sort this out. Don't disregard it as it can lead to feelings of nervousness, gloominess and anxiety on both sides. But you can't pressure the other person either. So why not make it a game.

Both of you have to make a list of all the nice things you would like to do/have done to each other; you should forget retribution and pandemonium (really bad for saving a relationship). Each person gets a turn having one item on their list. She may want you to run her a nice hot bath and allow her to soak for an hour; with only the candles for company. And guess what that can lead to for the man.

Rediscover the excitement that brought you together in the first place. Let's face it most couples do not get involved due to the fantastic conversation. There has to be the chemistry. But when you have shared what seems to be a lifetime, the roaring flames of desire may now resemble a smouldering ember. However, the good news is, with work by you both, you can fan those "smouldering embers into an all consuming fire of passion.

Couples that laugh together stay together and make time for one another are the most likely to be walking hand in hand and sharing their twilight years. Life isn't a bed of roses, but it's a lot more fun when you share it with someone you love.

These are just a few of the things involved in "how to prevent a long term relationship breakup". Be sure you take the time to implement these things now and stop any further harm to your relationship.
