How To Reviving Romance In Marriage - part 1
by Richmond Acheampong
After being together for a long time, the romance in most marriages starts to fade. We want our love to never end and desire to be closer to our partner but the stress and busyness of life gets in the way. Interestingly many couples facing this dilemma think their love has fizzled, when in actual fact, their communication has reached a plateau.
In every relationship there are two levels of communication. The first level is surface communication and the second is deep communication. Surface level communication involves discussing the details of daily life, like paying bills, sharing chores, where to go for vacation, discussing the kids and so forth. Deep communication is more intimate; it involves sharing your feelings, hopes, dreams and fears. Deep level communication occurs when an individual feels secure enough in a relationship to be vulnerable with their emotions and be their true self. It's this level of communication that fuels the romance and keeps the love alive in the relationship.

If you feel like your love is fading, evaluate the level of communication in your marriage. Understanding why and how you communicate is the first step towards improvement. Ask yourself the following questions 1. While growing up, was communication in my family encouraged or discouraged? Was it deep or superficial? 2. Who was the better communicator, my mother or father? 3. Which parent was easier to talk to? 4. Is my communication style like my father or mother's? 5. Would my spouse say I encourage him/her to share vulnerable feelings? 6. Do I feel like my spouse listens to me and values my thoughts? 7. When something upsets me outside of my relationship, do I talk about it with my partner or keep it to myself? 8. Are there situations where it's hard to express my feelings or thoughts? If so why?
Several factors influence your communication level, but upbringing has the most dominant affects. Here's an exercise that will help deepen the level of communication with your partner and build trust once it's implemented.
