Celebrity marriage isn’t the only type of marriage that needs work! Love needs a lot of love and care in order to bloom beautifully. Like any flower growing, a relationship needs to be maintained. Cupid has some relationship advice on how to keep that spark in your marriage:
1. Make time for one another:Â you’re gonna be busy with work and possibly kids and whatever hobbies you may have going on. It’s easy to neglect any spousal needs. Therefore, no matter how busy you are, be sure to make some one-on-one time with your spouse! Talk to one another, bond, and have fun!
