How can a couple ensure their relationship will remain passionate?
The eye-gazing practice and cultivating interest are two important components of doing so. Another approach we advocate is treating the relationship, perhaps most specifically the sexual aspects of the relationship, as collaboration, an adventure, a journey you’re on together. People tend to believe that sex and passion happen naturally, because they often seem effortless in the early stages of a relationship. There’s very good research on why and how that initial passion fades, but if you bring awareness to sexuality, treat each other as true partners, talk openly and honestly about sex, you are likely to find that there’s always more to discover.
