The biggest complaint that people have with their partners in today’s times is that they do not have time for them. In an era where everyone is career-oriented regardless of gender, it can be difficult to be there for your beloved one all the time. This has often been interpreted as negligence and has been the cause of many couples splitting up.
So how do we address the issue? It’s simple. You just have to ensure that you are the predominant thought in your better half’s mind most of the time. Here are some tips and tricks that may ensure that your partner thinks of you more often.
Drop a Text at a Particular Time
Usually, when we do something at a certain time every day, we get used to it. Likewise, send a message to the person dear to you at a specific time every day. If you are texting them at 7 p.m. every day, then they will think about you at that time on even a day that you skipped a text.
Be a Good Listener
Remember that your partner probably values you as close as family and hence they may tend to confide in you about personal things. Listen to them carefully and do not show hesitance to listen. When they realise they have strong confidence in you, they will value you more.
Eye Contact
During conversations, looking into your partner’s eyes is a terrific way to show them how much you care, and how much you love them and to make them feel heard. Conversely, if you avoid making eye contact with your partner throughout a conversation, they could start to feel ignored and want to distance themselves from you.
Do Not Force Them to Always Be There
Do not get troubled if your partner is busy somewhere with work and is unable to drop texts or calls for a long period. Understand that there may be a genuine reason and getting angry because of it will make you look unreasonable to them and create cracks in a relationship.
Touch Shoulders with Affection During Conversations
You can employ tiny gestures of affection that convey warmth, understanding, and bonding in relationships. This involves walking or conversing while holding hands, grinning at each other, and averting your eyes somewhat. You can talk to someone you like by putting your hand on their shoulders.
