Step 1
Celebrate special occasions. Take the time to show your partner extra love and appreciation on special dates like anniversaries. For example, make plans for an intimate dinner at the restaurant where you had your first date. This shows that the time you have spent together is valuable and worth remembering.

Step 2
Remember how you became romantically interested and linked. Did you notice her beautiful smile or his unique sense of fashion? This helps keep your mind focused on your partner and not the new neighbor across the hall.

Step 3
Rekindle the flames. The goal is to revive old feelings while seeking new experiences to share in together. For example, taking a cruise together will provide a special moment to relive the way you felt on your honeymoon. Learn to act "out of character" in a good way.

Step 4
Create new memories. Take the time to acknowledge any powerful moments shared between each other. Know that powerful moments can spring from ordinary daily events. For example, a simple " I love you", whispered while watching Saturday morning cartoons with the children may be remembered by your partner forever.

Step 5
Keep doing the little things. When was the last time you told your partner she was special? What may seem trivial to you might brighten your partner's day. Remember that everyday is a new opportunity to build the relationship and keep the romance alive.
