Love is a unique and fascinating project that we must learn to keep alive through concrete acts. A relationship must be nourished and cared for. Relationships, like people, change as the years pass. Adjustments have to be made every now and then.

It’s important to distinguish between the actual relationship and the conflicts and challenges that may arise within it. Conflicts should never be extended into other areas of the relationship nor should they be used as an excuse to damage the relationship. For example, if you have a conflict around money, there’s no need to extend it into the sexual arena. Many people use sex as a way to manipulate their partners or to get them to do something against their will. In a couple, all problems should be confronted with a positive spirit and the partners should work together to find solutions.
