10 Things To Hold Onto In The Honeymoon Period Of A Relationship

The honeymoon period of a relationship is generally marked by exploring everything you have in common and celebrating that. The honeymoon period ends when you start to notice things you don’t have in common, and perhaps when you start to notice things you don’t love about your partner. Couples survive the honeymoon period by understanding and accepting that nobody is perfect, but their partner is pretty damn close. Or they decide they don’t want to be a spinster with thirty cats so decide that Bob from the office will do for the time being.

Be Playful

Relationships are fun and having fun and playing games with your partner is one of the first things that happens in relationships. You get little inside jokes and enjoy their company when they’re being fun.

Be Silly

Silly-ness in a relationship, I think, is also an essential. Perhaps it shows a different side to your partner or is nice to be a little bit silly after you’ve had a long and stressful day at the office.

Be Chatty

Sometimes, people just like to talk. When you first start a relationship, you want to learn everything about your partner. Keep learning! Ask them questions and ell them stories, keep talking and keep learning. It will be an everlasting honeymoon, the more and more you have to say to them.

Be Sexy

Your partner will be attracted to you. It’s one of the reasons they wanted to be with you. Make yourself feel sexy and show them how you feel. You don’t have to do it for them, be sexy for yourself – but include them.

Be Romantic

Romance shouldn’t die in a relationship. It’s very easy to be romantic for your partner and is something you should do continuously throughout your relationship. It could be as simple as cooking them a nice dinner after a long day at work. Or listening to them whine about Susan from the office (who is a complete cow). Just by being there and listening or having little gestures you can show your partner how much you love them.

Be Inviting

If you have a lot of stuff happening in your life, then invite your partner to join. You might not think they’ll enjoy it, but even so they will be happy they were invited and might go along to support you. It’s nice to be included and everyone loves to be asked to stuff.

Be Accommodating

You like this person, if you’re at this stage in the relationship then you’re probably exclusive. Accommodate your partner in your life! Make space for them to sit on your sofa, introduce them to your friends, your parents. You want your partner to feel welcome in your life, so make them welcome.

Be Level-Headed

The honeymoon period is such a wonderful time of new experiences and mushy love. But be level headed and prepared because the honeymoon period doesn’t last forever and if you’re serious in this relationship, then you want it to survive. Therefore, you need to be ready for when the mush ends and the real-world returns.

Be Open

Be open with your partner: tell them how you’re feeling, tell them what you’re thinking. By being open you won’t notice the ‘periods’ of the relationships change so much. You’ll be happy about where you are in your relationship and confident that they know what you’re thinking and feeling. Try and see if your partner is willing to share as well, maybe they won’t be as open as you are but will still talk when it matters.

Be Happy

The most important thing in any relationship is that both you and your partner are happy. Do what makes you happy, don’t change and be there for them. You’ll make it through the honeymoon period and far beyond if you are both happy.
