Building great soulmate relationships in life takes time and commitment. If you choose to spend time and you choose to commit you WILL most certainly build a relationship that will bring you joy and contentment. Some keys to building great relationships include:
Connect with the one that you love
Make time to remind your soulmate that they are special. Write them a note, send an email, sms or phone them during the
day at work. Do something that you know will be meaningful to your partner. Make sure your efforts don't go to waste; connect
with them keeping their love language in mind. Be intentional about making a daily connection in the middle of your busy
life.
Plan your time
The old saying 'fail to plan and you will plan to fail' is so true when it comes to soulmate relationships. Planning your
time is of utmost importance in building great soulmate relationships. The average couple is so busy with work, catching
up with friends and other responsibilities that sometimes in an established relationship you can fail to plan to spend
time together. Check your calendars each week and make note of time when you will be together. Be intentional about spending
casual social time together and also about spending quality time building into your soulmate relationship. A regular 'date
night' is a great idea.
Be protective of your soulmate relationship
At times healthy jealousy is a must in relationships. If you are not going to protect your soulmate relationship, who
will? Don't allow yourself to be in situations that compromise the integrity of your relationship with your partner. Always
remember that soulmate relationships can last forever - make sure that the emotional needs of your partner are being met.
Don't take each other for granted. Your relationship is important.
Don't forget the special occasions!
Use your diary or the reminder function in your mobile phone; make a note of birthdays, anniversaries and special events.
Talk about important events and make sure that both partners' expectations are equal. Unnecessary tension can result in
a relationship due to unmet expectations. If you would like to go away for your anniversary make sure that your partner
knows! They are not mind readers. It may seem to take the spontaneity and romance out of it all but in the long run your
soulmate relationship will be stronger as a result of discussing such issues.
Introduce surprise to your relationship
Assuming your partner likes surprises, and you have time, there are many ways you can surprise them. Organise with their
boss that they will take an extended lunch break and take them out to lunch, send flowers, a card, chocolates- the options
are endless and can really add spice to your life together. Interrupt the mundane with a surprise and you'll be amazed
at what it does for your soulmate relationship.
Get away with your friends
If you are in a steady relationship make sure that you haven't become exclusive with your partner and in the process lost
all of your friends! This is a common mistake that couples make when entering into a relationship. At the start everything
is new and very exciting and before you know it you have neglected the old friend that you have had since high school.
Friendships are important and it is healthy to have mutual friends and for each person to have their own friends in a relationship.
It brings diversity and spending time apart only makes the heart grow fonder!
Become a student of your partner
If you are in a relationship you need to become a full-time student of your partner. Make it your mission to learn everything
there is to know about them. Their likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, how they relate to others, how they feel most
loved. When you take the focus off yourself and your needs and focus on your partner you will discover that you are in
the process of building a great relationship. As you focus on your partner they will become more focused on you- it is
always better to give than to receive!
