Why is it that romantic relationships are very intense and ecstatic only during the first two years? why does it gradually turn out to be boring and not so exciting in the succeeding years? and to the worst extent, why others tend to break up after having been reached their fifth year or over? i knew a lot of couples who went through that and i really am bothered about it. what if that happens to the relationship i'm in to? given that i get to experience the boredom and the spark that once ignited seems to have lost. is there anyone here who care to share his/her experience related to my issue right now? your responses are highly appreciated. thanks and have a good day!

They always say that it takes two to tango. That's true. Both person should work for the relationship. The love in a relationship should be intensified by keeping the flame burning. I really don't know how and there's no right formula for that. I have been in a long term relationship of 9 years. We got married almost 4 years ago. I must admit we stand many storms in our relationship. There are times I want to give up but God is great and always been there for us. He keeps us together and we learn to accept each other for what we are. It's not about the excitement. It's more of love, respect, open communication and trust, and God. So I must say, it takes three to tango. It's me, my husband and God being in the center.

You grow older and so your relationships are maybe it becomes better, deeper but sometime its becoming weak and tasteless. How to deal with that? First you have to spend time together and assess yourself how you've gone that far. Isn't it worth it that despite all the hindrances and time test your still in each others arms. Take time to remember the precious memories you have before dwell on it. It is important to protect your relationship especially if you are tied already. Enjoy doing things you had done before like teasing at least. Bring spice by booking a vacation or cruise. A time that you and the partner alone and romance will be refreshed and blooms like a flower. I think if you have friendship then it will last forever aside from hearts and flowers. So better invest some cool stuff to your partner other than romance at the same time you will bothe be benefited.

sometimes,the simplest solution is the best. And in that sense, a romantic getaway is one of the best way to keep your relationship exciting. the cares of day to day life can often take a toll on your relationship. when you getaway even for a few days, the two of you can leave work.

In a relationship space and time is really important.My friend who is in her seven years of having a relationship also told me that there were really times you will fell like you've fallen out of love.When that happens you need to give time as if you will make a miss effect on your partner.It might work for other couple but not for all.
