How do you stay connected?

[David Baxter PhD]

Sometimes, the biggest challenge in a long-term relationship is being able to evolve as individuals and as a couple and still remain emotionally connected to one another.

How have you tried to do this in your relationship and what have you found that works for you?

that is a very interesting question. i think the big thing is to make time for each other and work at being together. avoid taking the other person for granted. make it a priority to spend quality time together through going out on dates, or making plans to spend an evening together at least once a week. take the time to talk about what's happening on a personal level in your hobbies or with your friends or at work. stuff like that

Just being together and communicating honestly is the most important thing, unfortunately this simple process is either missing or does not exist in a deteriorating relationship that has cracks in it, having a common goal is also important, most relationships don't work when there are different priorities.
