#1 When a couple is in a good place, they feel secure and fulfilled. To feel secure and fulfilled in a relationship, both people need to feel that the other person thinks highly of them, cares deeply for them, and thinks they are proficient at something.

#2 The first step in saving your relationship is to focus on it. If you cannot sustain attention over time, love will falter here. But if you can create genuine connection, you’ve got it made. The rewards of love are far more important than most people believe.

#3 Today, love and stability are difficult to find. You may be hoping for some fun, but today, fun often gives way to fear. As you read this, you may be wondering if any of the hopes we’ve mentioned are realistically possible given the frenzy and anxiety of modern life.

#4 The dream of love is a dream that every person in the world can make come true. Don’t give up on it. If you’ve read this far, you haven’t. You’re a little frustrated or maybe a lot frustrated with your difficult in turning your relationship into what it could be or keeping it where you want it to be.
