Step 1
When you are at the grocery store or video store or anywhere in public where you may get a bit of seperation, stop and take a look at your other as a stranger. Someone you haven't met yet. Does it make you think about the day you met? Do you remember the passion and attraction you felt that first time you saw him/her?

Step 2
You have heard the saying "pick your battles". You have to let go of the smaller things that could waste hours of your time. If you are wanting a long term serious relationship with your partner, let the small thngs go. In the long run they don't matter at all.
When you are 60 years old sitting on the porch in your rocking chair you won't remember those small things that may have irratated you at the time. You will remember the love and romance you shared through the years. You will remember how happy you made each other. You may have little annoyances that your partner lets go of also! It runs both ways! -
Step 3
Have fun together. Step away from the daily grind and make time to keep that passion and romance alive. You don't have to go out and spend alot of money to do this. Turn off the TV and sit outside and talk. Laugh together. Share silly stories. Even if you don't think it is an important issue share it anyway. When you share, your partner will share more. You will be a bigger part in each others lives. Laugh at your self, laugh at each other! The passion will come naturally from here!

Step 4
Give each other some room. This would go along the lines of "absence makes the heart grow stronger". It is true! You do not need to spend every minute together to have romance or passion or any type of good relationship. In fact, you need to maintance your own life and your own space. Go out with the girls/boys once in a while. You need to maintance your own self and personality.

Step 5
If you are at or feel you are past the point of losing passion and romance and are trying to get it back remember this....take it slow.
You cannot make thing like they were before. You cannot force things to happen. You can't force a laugh. You can't force a feeling. Be honest with yourself and with your partner.
