Falling in love is no simple task.

shanti-o:

Sure, there are many beautiful women out there that catch your eye.

But what makes love so special is that it’s about a connection. It’s more than skin deep. 

Love is about being vulnerable.

Love is about finding your best friend.

That’s why you have to create opportunities to fall in love.

Find activities to do together. Of course you should go on dates and do things that are your common interests…

…but going beyond your comfort zone and doing something new is an excellent way to grow as a couple.

Look for exciting activities that you can both share, like going on a roller coaster or watching a scary movie. 

These intense experiences create a bond. 

Plus, when she’s scared she might just snuggle closer to you!

Ask each other questions. Find out where she’d like to be in ten years. 

Ask her about her life and talk about art together.

See how you both interpret things.

Remember, it’s not about having the same opinions but rather learning to see the world anew through someone else’s eyes.
