In my previous post titled Spice It Up ♥, I highlighted some hint on how to add that sauce to a relationship to revive it from dying. Often times, relationships look good, interesting and fun at its infancy, but as time goes on and things starts to get complicated, issues which could separate the partners would crop up. It takes a lot of factors to overcome this stage. Good advice from friends, family, counselors could go a long way in reinvigorating and resuscitating such relationships.

In this post, we shall dish out more tips on how to spice up a relationship - taking off from where we last stopped.

1. Step away from your gadgets (laptop, phones, video games etc) when you are supposed to be spending a quality time with each other. Such moments may not be perfectly created again if missed but your gadgets will still be with you.

2. Create a kind of mini-traditions that the two of you can look up to eagerly. This could be seeing a show together every week or going out to a certain spot to have quality time every weekend. Small rituals like this would increase the bond between two lovers.

3. Sincerely complement each other as often as possible. The two of you are together as soul mates and a reflection of your 'best selves'. Say it when you like her hair, her outfit, her smile. Don't just admire and keep mute.

4. Don't make the mistake of making promises that you can not keep or the one you would have to stress yourself so much before redeeming it. Setting reasonable and achievable expectations is healthy for a relationship.

5. Establish an healthy relationship and connection with friends and family of your partner. Once a while, hang out with friends and family of each other.

6. Pay rapt attention to the tiny happenings, changes and things that bother your partner. This doesn't mean you should change your style, or the way you laugh. But if you notice that your partner doesn't like when the kitchen is untidy when s/he comes back from work, try to clean up and organise it before s/he returns.

7. Don't forget to ask about how your partner's day went - hectic, stress-free? It should never ever be avoided.

8. Small surprise gifts and packages go a long way. Grab a pack of her favourite candy on your way home or pick up a couple of his favorite drink on your way home. This would be appreciated.

9. Do a review of your top favorite funny moments with each other. Being funny is part of the reason you like your partner 😍

10. Cuddling should be made time for in a relationship. It may or may not lead to sex but it increases physical affection, hence, it's importance.
