Relationships are quite complex to keep these days especially due to different factors. It is nevertheless no hard to maintain a long and strong relationship as long as both the partners are committed. Relationships can be quite fun and it is always easier to spend your life with a partner as you learn how to back one another. While you find love, you will find happiness too. There are several things you can do in a relationship to keep it stronger and healthier.
Understand each other
First and foremost, you should learn to understand one another. While you know how your partner is and you try understanding them rather than criticizing, things would be a lot easier for both of you.
Communication is the key
This is a vital aspect to consider when couples learn to talk about their issues with each other, they have a happy relationship. They should open up and must tell each other everything and anything to avoid any sort of issues later.
Give each other some space
Generally, when a couple starts to date, they spend most of their time together. As much as it helps with knowing one another and keeping each other company; it is always great to give each other some space too. Let your partner do their own thing with their friends without tagging you along. Find something interesting or a hobby you can do on your own so that you do not get bored.
Always try making up
All relationships have arguments and problems once in a while. It is quite usual as not all days will be happy days. There are times where couples disagree and eventually end up fighting. Ensure the day does not end or you do not go to your bed without sorting out the issues or making up.
Sacrifice
Everything you do ensure you think of your partner and how they are going to feel about a certain thing. If it is something they would appreciate, then do it. If it is something they would avoid, then do not do it. Learn to listen to your partner and always support them no matter what.
Keep Romance Alive
Several couples impede playing around with one another or put off the physical feel after they have been in a relationship for long. This damages the relationship as it requires all these little things to keep it alive. Playing together is fun and also useful for keeping the love between the two stronger. news@urbanmediatoday.com
Scented Candles
by Robert Simic
Not only do scented candles lend flattering, soft light and a special atmosphere to a room, they also fill the space with a wonderful fragrance of your choice. Even unscented candles burn away unpleasant smells, in or out of doors and they are as effective as any atomizer. (Any candle will burn away the smell of cigarette smoke – and more effectively so if a little vanilla perfume is added to it.)
The longer it burns, the more aromatic it will be. This is because the greater the area of molten wax, the more vapor and perfume is released. As container ones have a bigger pool of molten wax, they are particularly suited as scented candles.
If you like a richly scented candle, one way is to go for a larger container or mold and give it more than one wick. This will create a bigger pool of molten wax and thus a stronger aroma.
Scents or essential oils, herbs or aromatic flowers can also be added – i.e. you can infuse the wax with these scents.
The best known, for utilitarian purposes, are probably those scented with citronella, as they will keep mosquitoes and midges at bay, in or out of doors. Generally, however, we associate them with romance, festivity, and luxury. They can really do wonders for creating a general feeling or mood.
Adding perfume to candle wax makes the wax more liquid. This is the reason why most of them come in some kind of a container — a glass or jar of some kind, often terracotta. Used fragrances can be anything you like – from heavy oriental fragrances to fresh floral scents.
Floating candles are usually scented; not only do they have a broad base, but the cool water helps to prevent the molten wax from becoming too liquid and messy. (Small foil cupcake holders make wonderful molds for them!)
Generally speaking, they should not be lit before serving a meal – their strong aroma, mixed with that of the food you have prepared, may not go well together. Light them after dinner, when you serve coffee.
One can choose from a wide range of fragrances — whatever suits your mood — rich, heady, strong fragrances such as jasmine or rose, or earthy woody scents such as sandalwood and cedar. Furthermore, aromatherapists will tell you that certain smells have certain effects on humans; their research tells you that some fragrances are soothing, relaxing and create a general feeling of well-being — Jasmine, Lavender, Ylang Ylang, and Geranium.
