How to get love right and stay in love
The key on how to stay in love begins with accepting that love doesn’t just happen – it takes effort and it takes work. When you work at a relationship, you keep it fresh, you keep it well tended and you keep the love alive. Your garden doesn’t just grow – well, actually it does. It can grow weeds and wild flowers. There can be some startlingly beautiful wild flowers that appear in your garden. These wild flowers can be similar to the startling moments of warmth, passion and love that flare between you and your spouse in those unexpected moments.
The weeds that grow in your garden can be pretty profuse. And just like your marriage, if you don’t get rid of the weeds, they can choke out all the wonderful moments.
All the self help books that tell us how to get love right also give advice on how to make love right. Why is it we still can’t get our relationships right with all that help from the books on love and relationships?
No matter how well intended these books are, they have limitations. Most are assumptions about love and relationships with no real clinical evidence.
