  • The honeymoon phase will be defined through three main qualities: idealization, passion, and lack of fighting. Can all of these three qualities be prolonged forever and with the same intensity at which they are found in the early stages of a relationship? Today, we've partnered up with Ana from Ana Psychology to create this video! In this video, we're going to talk about how to keep a relationship in the honeymoon phase for as long as possible.

      @~Pink Care Bear~ it's normal in the sense that you can disagree with your partner and sometimes based on emotions in that moment it can get heated BUT that is up to the 2 individuals in the argument or disagreement. It doesn't mean allow your partner to be abusive while having the disagreement because then your not really in a healthy relationship. Once that person crosses the line you enable them to continue.
      Speaking from experience by being married for almost 5 years. My husband and I disagree allllll the time but we don't allow it to get out of hands and apologize to each other even if we haven't said anything offensive, but because we understand that it's not that serious we can move on and be crazy about each other anyways.

      @laceystonerock6609 3 роки тому +351

      @@Psych2go I haven't found just one secret. Taking time to know each other is key. What makes the other happy, angry, upset and making sure their emotional needs are met. A sink full of dishes is his biggest pet peeve for example- so I prioritize making sure dishes are done. I don't like socks on the floor, so he prioritizes making sure he puts them in the hamper. It's all about give and take. Not holding minor faults against the other is huge. Did he leave his socks on the floor? I put them in the hamper myself without making a big deal about it. Not nit picking the small stuff. Respect is huge, especially in a disagreement. Yelling and name calling never help the situation, but it's important to always find your way back to each other after an altercation. Forgive and Forget. There are no "Well that one time YOU..." in our arguments. We spend A LOT of time together, but it is nice to have a day away too- like your video said. What helps us the most I think, is being like minded- we want the same things in life, and have similar goals. It feels like we're working together for everything, instead of separately. Sorry for the long response, I couldn't think of just one thing that was important that I've learned in 8 years of marriage :D

      While fighting all the isn't great, I don't think that's what people are saying. People can't agree on everything and it is normal to disagree with your partner. It's how the couple handles it that matters. If someone has a disagreement that's not a sign that the relationship is flawed.

      @@CLAIRE-_-. Disagreements are bound to happen. I'm not denying that. But you can disagree with your partner in a respectable manor. How couples handle differences of opinion is important. I see fighting as a transition away from a discussion and into heated, angry, and disrespectful actions, including yelling. Your brain function is significantly impaired when you're angry so when fighting happens you're not getting anything productive out of those instances. It's better to take a break, cool down, and try to come back with a level head. Those are the times when you can actually discuss a problem with the intention of fixing it, instead of possibly playing the blame game and not listening to what your partner has to say.

      You can find people who will hold your hand just about anywhere, but finding someone who will do everything they can to support you through life isn't something I'd recommend you rush through.
      Be honest with yourself about what you're looking for: A long-term, loving partnership or someone who you can enjoy the company of for just the time being.
      Engage in things that make you feel fulfilled, and the people you meet while living an honest life will see that and want to come along for the ride.
      Waiting to find someone who honors you as you would honor them, even if it takes a decade, isn't mandatory, but you're setting yourself up to be with someone that will make you truly happy and help you grow.

    Something else I noticed that helps with keeping the passion going in a relationship (that goes along w this video) is seeking your partner's attention/validation, and wanting to impress them, and wanting them to notice the things you do. My husband will do the dishes and if I don't notice he will point it out to me like ".. did you notice I did the dishes before you came home? 🙃" I think that's an important thing to have, because it motivates the other person to want to return the good deed. When you stop seeking that positive attention from them I think it's a sign you should value their attention more.

    Here it is important to realize that you cannot change or improve another person. You cannot take someone who appears charming and talented, but who cannot seem to function very well, and turn them into a functioning person. Young women make this mistake all the time, particularly, thinking they are going to rehabilitate the young man. 'Oh, with her guidance, this young man will become productive and responsible and effective.' Do not make this mistake. It is an immense waste of your time. You cannot change or improve another person. That is what they must do for themselves.

We were in fear of trying, & failing. It would cause motivation issues with us both. But we loved each other. I also was still unstable from my last relationship (was also long distance, broke up after 5 years), so we'd get into arguments over dumb things, most of it cuz of my own mental state. I've had a few breakdowns...felt like I fell into a dark hole every time. A few years later, a friend of mine pushed me to try & get welfare, food stamps, & join a job program. Once I got a job, & he finished college with a job, I started recovering, & just like that, our fighting just came to an end.

It's not ideal as random acts of affection are preferable, but he's making an effort. He genuinely wants to make me happy and scheduled or not I enjoy the affection. So in the end, it's all good ❤️

    not to be cheesy, but i personally feel like all this gets easier the more you actually love someone and what the relationship means to you on a big scale, like compared to what has been going on in your life or what you dream about. i might not be the best example, since my partner and I are in a long distance relationship - we still see eachother every other to few weeks, since it's only two hours, but it's been almost one year and we're still pretty much in the honeymoon phase! actually, we are reuniting tomorrow and after watching this, I can't wait... thank you so much for your content!

    That's very interesting when you mention the part about not getting lazy, putting forth effort to continue to court and woo your partner throughout the relationship and likening that to other things in life.
    It reminds me of an adage that I heard a lot in college, "If you don't use it, you will lose it." referencing things like mathematics, scripts, how the hell to find the hidden overflow parking lot....
    Or like in that "Inside Out" movie where the names of all the ponies Riley had memorized turned gray because she stopped prioritizing her interactions with them.

    I NEEDED THIS in my last serious relationship. Oh my God. I'm still hurting so badly from being neglected... it hurts so much to be giving your all to an affection black hole.
    I could only try so much to connect, communicate, and ask for things, before it simply became talking to a wall. Everything was more important than me and our relationship... his space in the room. Video games. His job, which was a closing business, and he wouldn't seek employment elsewhere and stayed til the last day the business was open. He was more loyal to his work and his games than he was to me. I ended up getting ignored most of the time or treated like an inconvenience. It hurts me even now. I don't like how I ended that relationship, but I had to go. I was stuck living with someone who didn't even want to marry me any more. He wanted to use our wedding money for a puppy and an arcade cabinet, and he fully expected me to continue living in a cramped house with his parents, his sister, and her baby. I wouldn't be able to have a child in that environment, and we decided we wouldn't have kids together even though that's something I've always wanted to do. It just sucked. I miss a lot of things about my ex, but he's no good as a romantic partner. If he was more mature, we could be friends. He was willing to be "friends" with me before I started dating again, but once he realized we were NOT getting back together, he hasn't spoken to me since.
    It sucks.

    As a person who has been in that honeymoon phase for the entirety of me and my partner's 3 year relationship, these things work. Not only have we kept passion going, and kept fights to a minimum we have had 0 actual fights even by the extended standards.
    We both put a huge priority on communication from the get go. We both have some varrying anxiety about whether or not someone is upset with us. Or if what we did was uncomfortable or not attractive. So we made actually asking a priority so we could eliminate any worry that came with it.
    We kept things passionate by making a game out of breaking the other person (making all thoughts stop and extreme blushing happen) and also I constantly flirt with them (of course stopping when told to)

    It's normal with ANY KIND of relationship TO fight if there's a reason to be fighting. It's how you communicate during and after that matters!
    Learning conflict management skills is important to every relationship, and everyone has had a different upbringing and has different ways they express bitter feelings. One needs to set clear boundaries while also listening with an open heart about how they've hurt others and plan ahead how to avoid similar situations in the future. Show you WANT to improve. Over time, any sort of early fighting will diminish as you get comfortable with one another and trust eachother to listen. Even so, there will always still be situations that are too niche or specific to learn anything from as they'll never come up again and all you can do in those situations is apologize.
    Just don't let yourself fall into a relationship where you're the only one doing all of the work to smooth things over. If the other person is bottling instead of communicating, not apologizing, or not actively asking what they could improve on... you need to sit down and seriously question how long that relationship is going to last.

    im 19 now, we definitely had an average 6 month honeymoon phase but it also has been over for what feels like a while now
    some passion is gone due to my own issues and the idealization has definitely died down
    when it comes to arguments (i have bpd), they used to be way worse though and ive been trying hard to make a change, it has gotten better :)
    next week i'll be an inpatient, this will be the first time in 1.5 years being away from him for so long... i'm nervous, but i am also hopeful that it will bring back some lost passion due to the distance and most importantly the self improvement i hope on making :)
    guess these couple years were the worst to be iscolated mentally ill young and in love lol, but we are both convinced its just a rough patch, and when i've gone through care and we eventually get our own place, since we both really dont feel comfortable or FREE with our living situation, thats when our relationship will finally get going.
    honeymoon phase 2.0, 2023

    So many singles watching this video! I am single too, but I have had a few relationships before. It is interesting seeing the things that I did right in my relationships, and seeing the things I didn’t try hard enough at. One thing I realize is that some of the times I didn’t work at the relationship were because I didn’t want the relationship. I stopped trying because I was ready to go. Which then makes me wonder why I lost my motivation. I need to think about it some more. I want my next relationship to last, which means I have to pursue quality partners, as well as work my ass off to keep them. Luckily, I love doing the things outlined in this video! It’s actually weird that someone wouldn’t try to do these things, because seeing your partner light up when you do them is such a thrill

    My husband and I have been together for 11 years and have never had one fight. The relationship was extraordinary since the beginning, but I am even happier now that we have spent years together and know each other better. We are on the honeymoon phase and have been even through illness, unemployment, stressful situations like competitive exams and moving several times… empathy, patience, tolerance really go a long way. Explaining to your parnter why you are having a rough day and seeking some comfort (by cuddling for example) is way healthier than nagging at him/her BECAUSE you are having a rough day. Your relationship is a precious thing and you need to treat it and your partner as such.

    10 years together, still get butterflies and giddy feelings, passion is very much alive if you also continue to be amazed and appreciative by your partner

    19 months into a relationship and the honeymoon phase is still going strong. Distance has been a huge factor in it.
