A failed relationship isn’t only a relationship where love no longer exists; that is just stating the obvious. A failed relationship starts when people no longer try to put a smile on the face of their partner.
The perfect litmus test to know if a relationship is still working is by checking how often partners smile at each other based on the fact that each tries to do things to make each other smile. If that simple smile no longer exists in a relationship then the relationship would be hitting the rocks soon.
Simple things make people smile and these simple things are what keeps the relationship going; a simple “you are looking beautiful today” would make your lady smile all through that day, and a simple “you are the best man any lady could ask for” would keep your man more excited about being with you. Those simple gifts, those simple dates, those simple romantic messages, those simple play-fights are special moments that would put smiles on your partner’s face and those things are what makes relationships tick.
It’s easy to fall in love and start a relationship but the hard part is staying in that relationship and making it work. Sometimes love isn’t just enough and that’s one terrible mistake people make, it’s not only about loving someone but about working hard to show that you really do love that person, and it always starts with making that person smile.
A relationship usually comes with tension and the ability to contain that pressure would go a long way in determining the success of that relationship. Another grave mistake people in relationships make is waiting for their partner to put a smile on their face; it should start with you, if you consciously try to always put a smile on your partner’s face, your partner would more likely follow suit. A couple that work hard to keep that smile forever glowing on their faces would have every reason to fall in love with each other every passing day.
By putting a smile on your lady or man’s face you even put a smile on your face and by that you take some weight off your relationship; now the big question is how often do you put a smile on your partner’s face?
