If you’ve been in a relationship for awhile, chances are, it needs a little refreshing. Do you remember how it was in the beginning? You two made a constant effort to keep your love alive. You sent random text messages or left little notes for them. Do you remember the feeling that brought to you, or them? It was exciting and gave you butterflies. Those little messages meant so much! (They still do).
People tend to get complacent and stop doing and saying the things they once did. They become comfortable and think the other person just knows what they are thinking and feeling. But do they now?
