Romantic Competitions And Games – How They Improve Your Relationship
| May 15, 2012 | Posted by doyouwoo under Guest Posts |
To show your partner you romantically love them plays a far more important role than just saying it. There are vast amounts of romantic ways to show your partner you love them – wether they are your wife, husband, girlfriend or boyfriend.
If however you limit yourself to just using spoken words, there are an enormous amount of romantic opportunities which you will be missing out on.
A little romantic competition could be just what is needed!
Romantic competition can have very positive effects within your relationship, it can bring you closer to your lover, make you interact better with them and also will introduce a bit of spice into your marriage or relationship. Something to bear in mind though is always to avoid forms of competition which encourage feelings of jealousy (especiall so if you are in a Christian relationship) in your partner, as this goes against what you are trying to achieve!
Those among you who enjoy participating in sports or fitness activities could introduce a little physical competition, this could help to build your romance and you will both be staying in great shape. Ok so perhaps something like wrestling or an equally rough contact sport may be a little bit too much for some, but other activities such as running, swimming, golf, tennis, etc, will be less hazardous and possibly be a great idea to build on your romance.
Romance and Dealing With Losing
In order to give both partners an equal chance, or so that one does not have an advantage over the other, it would be wise to choose an activity where each individual is starting out with an equal ability.
The desired result from adding some romantic competition is to learn how to better interact with each other and also goes as far as to learn how to best accept not being the winner! It is not meant to establish which partner is either mentally or physically greater than the other.
An essential element to any successful romantic relationship is learning to give and take, it is vital to understand how to cope when you don’t get your way! By introducing a little fun competition in this way, it should help in understanding and realising these elements.
Some inevitable losses will occur in any good relationship, so having previously being beaten by your lover, in lets say a romantic game of golf, will have given you the ability to shrug off any future loss. You will quickly realise that although you lost out in this short term affair, in the long run you will be ahead because you become a happier, healthier and more stable couple.
Romantic competition does not have to solely involve physical activities, the list of possibilities is endless. Such examples could be board games, card games or things like word games and trivia quizes.
You could even involve others and play something in teams or in groups of friends. Try and vary things up sometimes by competing on different teams rather than both of you being on the same side all the time.
Remember that the whole point to having some competition is to learn how you have fun with your lover, even if it does involve losing every now and then.
Romantic Competition Creates Win-Win Situations!
If you were to add – perhaps once a week – some romantic competition to your relationship, physical or not, I’m sure you will be pleasantly surprised as to how much more excitement and happiness your relationship will be filled with.
You will always be a winner in terms of building a stronger, more trusting, closer and healthier romantic relationship.
