      I've dated my husband for 9 years & married for another 4 years. So, we've somehow gotten into the very comfortable zone & needless to say, the in love feeling I once felt is gone. There is no doubt I love him. But being a romantic, I wanna feel the heady rush during the honeymoon phase. I wanna recapture the feelings when we started dating.


      Hence, I've created a blog to remind myself to fall in love with the same person again and again.

        Ideally, we want to feel in love with our partner throughout the marriage. As marriage matured along the way and years, you don’t feel in love with your partner anymore. Love is not gone, you will continue loving your partner but not in love, because marriage goes through phases to sustain and strengthen the foundation both of you had built from the beginning. I don’t like honeymoon phase, because it’s honeymoon phase where everything is sweet and there’s no tomorrow. I want to see and know the road ahead of us will be smooth or not with his pledge on the altar minutes ago because I want my tomorrow EVERYDAY. In love?? Nah, my hub and I passed that phase. I love my hub very much, but I’m not in love with him. I’m in love with our child.

          How to always feel the heady rush? Very difficult, I feel.


          But we need to try.

          Also, different feelings during different stages of marriage.

          Once you have kids, a lot of time & attention is focussed on the children. Sometimes, the couple may feel neglected, especially the male.

              When I think of love I think of trust-based relationships. However, judging from the number of mobile spyware to catch a cheating spouse I found at tryspyapp.com I doubt that there is any trust left in our society.

                My partner and I have been together for 13 years. My partner knows that I’d rather do actions that express my love to her than telling her every day those three words. We have this silent agreement that we do not need to show in public our love for each other.

                  My husband and I have been married for four years and we’ve been dating for two years before we decided to get married and start our family. He knows that I am that kind of woman who does not require to hear those three words on a daily basis. I am not also comfortable doing sweet actions in public. But what makes my heart smile is every time I witness him and my child doing that father-child bonding which I never had a chance to experience it with my own father. I know that my partner does love me and I am happy that I am with the man that makes my heart grow fonder each day.

                    Love can be expressed in several ways and there’s no need to spend too much to express affection to your partner or children.

                      It is better to show in a way of action on how you love a someone, it proves the effort and it makes him/her appreciate small things.
