Have you ever considered bringing back those things that helped men and women of old to look like masters in their relationships? Can we even remember any of these tips? Before you bother your head too much about it, here are few basics tips of old we need to bring back to our relationships to rejuvenate it:
1. Quality Time Together Without The Interference Of Technology.
Technology has taken the place of virtually everything we manually do in our day to day activities, even our relationships. Most times, we believe since we have talked to the person we are in a relationship with via the numerous social media platforms that exist, there’s really no need for quality time together. Yes, talking on phone for long minutes, chatting all day on all social platforms available can be very interesting but much more, attention needs to be paid to spending uninterrupted quality time together. There are many things you will know merely looking at the reactions on the face of your partner without him or her talking about it which you will not get to know if you were chatting.
2. Always Find Ways To Express Appreciation Significantly.
Have ever watched an old film where a queen is trying to praise the king for a favour done to her by her husband? Have you ever seen a king praising his queen in a romantic way in the eyes of his guards at the palace before? That’s the real deal!… The ancient way of appreciating gestures between husband and wife in the olden days really worked magic in old relationships. Try magics like that today!
3. Work together and help each other grow.
Going to the farm was the custom in the olden days; and when old couples get to the farm, the man might be seen ploughing, while the woman might be seen watering the growing plants. Even at home, the woman stays at home awaiting eagerly the arrival of her husband from every hunting expedition. Do something together today and see how it binds the two of you together more!
4. Focus on inner beauty.
Your fore fathers did not fall in love with any Brazilian weavon or made up face your grandmother had on the first time they met. Their love was founded on true emotions and determinations to stay together no matter what happens. Stop associating love with mundane things.

The same way being a man does not make you to be above saying sorry when you should is the same way being a woman isn’t a guarantee for you to do just anyhow you like hurting the feelings of someone who cares so much about you. Be sincere, never let excuses take the place of apologies in your relationships.

Like the ancient broom, it is when the strands of brooms come together that they can be useful as a broom. What happens in your relationship is nobody’s business!
