For those of you who have been in courtship or marriage for a long time, how do you keep your romance going in the relationship?

i think in order to sustain a healthy relationship, intimacy is important. also, to keep one another interested all the time. always something new to learn about the other party and as two people together.
helps to lot too by staying attractive for one another physically. The joke behind it is, what is the difference between a boyfriend and a husband? The answer?
30 pounds!

Thanks for your sharing! I think you've hit the nail once again.. so important to keep yourself looking attractive for each other physically.. think this is one aspect that married or even attached people tends to neglect cos they feel that since they're already married/attached, there's no reason for them to look good anymore, which is soooo totally wrong.. when you stay attractive for each other, that's how you keep the other party from going into an affair outside the relationship/ marriage.

Hey, if we can't be a child in front of the one we love, then where else can we be one? ;) Instead of going out and have your eyes on other people, might as well focus the attention on the one that is already yours! =)

Yup. Many a time people stray because they are bored with the other. It shouldnt be the case. Yes yes after being together for a while things become a little stale and boring. So people have to work and put in the effort to keep the spark going. Whoever said a relationship is easy anyway?
If you are in love with someone and commited enough, you would wanna remain attractive all the time.
I flirt with my bf all the time when I can heh heh..teasing is a good way to keep things going i feel. at least the other party can feel you still find him or her attractive and it is great fun.
it is fine to act like a kid here and there. :)

I am married for 13 yrs now. But while we are at work, I call him and say I love you. I know he appreciates it during a hard day of work. Sometimes, he is among other people or very rarely alone. But still the effect is marvelous.

Is does happen in a relationship particularly to married couples that they suddenly loose the flame they have before, suddenly gets bored i guess. To obtain continuous romance, both should be creative enough i.e. surprise ur partner, total or some self make over to attract his attention and most of all keep communication going strong, never end the day without talking, it does work.
