1. Start Over
When couples first get together, everything is new and exciting. They overlook the little annoying things the other person does. However, after time, the nagging starts, instead of hearing,"You look beautiful," they might
hear "Why are you wearing that shirt?" If this sounds like your relationship, first, the two of you need to sit down and be honest that things have changed. Identify the things each other did in the beginning of the relationship that created the attraction in the first place.Then together, make a commitment to start over.

Playing with your mates hair, rubbing their hand, a soft kiss on the neck, a soft pat on the leg or giving back rub will make a huge difference in how your mate responds to you. When was the last time you walked up to your mate for no reason and without saying a word, affectionately placed a kiss on their neck? This is not in a sexual way, but an affectionate way. There is a difference. The next time the two of you are sitting in the car, at the grocery store, or standing in ine at the theater, quietly reach over and take their hand. Do not be surprised if you get a strange look of curiosity the first time!
