Is Your Marriage a Companionship or a Love Affair?
Every marriage is just like any relationship.  While some marriages have very serious problems that can only be solved by intense focus and even therapy, most marriages simply become ‘stale’ or uninteresting. 

In a great many marriages, the excitement and ‘take my breath away’ feelings are fading or they are even gone.  Love sometimes needs a little stimulation in order to revisit and maintain the feelings we all crave and yearn for.  That stimulation is called ‘romance.’

Many people mistake a marriage that seems to be ordinary or unexceptional as lacking love. Most marriages do not lack love, but they do lack romance!  Love is easy and peaceful, while romance is what makes a relationship hot and arousing. 

Every single person on earth in any type of relationship desires passion and romance in his or her life.  Unfortunately, there are a few things about romance most people don’t understand.  The most common problem in creating romance in a relationship is that people simply don’t know how to do it!  Other times, people are fixed in cultural classifications and their partners are unable to appreciate them for their own special and unique qualities.  Ultimately, some people have simply given up on their search for romance.

In a time where everything is convenient and available almost at the touch of a button, the effort of romance seems as if it takes a good deal of effort.  It is very possible to take some old-fashioned romantic ideas and make them work in a modern world while maintaining the genuine intention behind each thought and act.  Romance today can be filled with unique ideas, creativity and passion.  Romance is simply the way you express your love for another person.  It is vital to keeping love fresh, exciting and alive.  Without romance, love can become tiresome and even worse.

The expression of love through romance keeps it alive, fun and worthwhile.  Romance is only true, though, when carried out with no ulterior motives.  The only reason romance should be initiated is in an attempt to show love and appreciation. 

Romance is more like an artistic creation as opposed to an exact science.  Love and romance should not be considered a contest that should be outdone time and again.    While love and romance take two in order to work, you can be extremely romantic while still keeping your individuality.  Love and romance make perfect partners and can make you and your partner ‘perfect’ companions as well!
