This is one of the most challenging questions to answer for many people. People value so many things in their relationships that they can easily fall into a rut and not even recognize what they truly appreciate or have a strong affection for in their partners. The key is to discover what you like about them and how you feel about them, and this is not always as easy as it sounds.
You may think it’s easy to answer the question, “I like them,” but in fact, it can be tough to do. First, you have to look at yourself and determine if what you have is truly love or lust. When we say we love someone, it’s an emotional connection. It’s not a physical connection. If we are attracted to someone purely based on looks and not because they make us feel good, we are not falling in love with them, which can be very dangerous.
Once you determine that you are falling in love with your partner, you must figure out how to sustain the relationship. The good news is that falling in love doesn’t mean sex, although sex can add depth and variety to love life. Similarly, certain things in a relationship can’t be replaced, and these things should be valued and remembered. One example of this is what do you like about them or their qualities that you like.
Next, you must figure out what you don’t like about your partner. Are there certain things that bother you about them that you don’t like? Is there something that causes you to question whether or not your partner is in love with you? Once you identify these things, it will be easier for you to work through them to get to know your partner better.
Finally, once you have figured out what you like or love about your partner, you should always remember to let them know what you think of them. This doesn’t mean you have to say the words out loud; instead, you should think about what you will say next, which will help clarify what you mean when you say the words. For example, if you notice that your partner seems bothered when you discuss finances, it is okay to tell them that you care about your financial situation. However, if you notice that you are distracted when they mention work, it is okay to ask them if you can do anything about it, even if it doesn’t affect your finances. It is essential for you to always listen carefully to what your partner says to make sure you aren’t saying something that will hurt them. If you ever want to have a healthy, fulfilling relationship, you need to learn to keep your words and body language open.
If you feel that you don’t know what you like or love about your partner, consider asking your partner directly. Perhaps they will give you a clue as to what you like or love or get a good idea of what it is that makes you happy. Besides, once you know what your partner likes or doesn’t like, you can then try to make changes in your life to reflect that. For example, if your partner often complains about having to work late, you may want to spend more time doing things that allow you to be home with your family instead of stressing out over having to go to work. Once you have found out what your partner likes or doesn’t like, you can do many other things to improve your relationship, including making changes in how you treat each other.
