It’s simple to love one another. It can be difficult to like each other. Emotions can fly when real life strikes. So, whereas love is a rock-solid basis, liking requires a bit more attention. We’re sharing our favorite methods to stay “in love” with each other.

The last months have been a big disappointment. Some of the people we care about and support have been going through a difficult period. We are coping with a really sad circumstance as a family. We’re in good shape. Those we care about are fine. However, when our schedules are hectic, our emotions are high, and we’re focused on getting things done, we tend to overlook the fundamentals of a relationship. Here are a few ways we keep “in like” with each other, especially through difficult times.

There are five techniques to stay in like…

  • Send amusing SMS to your lover. We share some of our personal favorites that we’ve sent to one another to get you started.
  • Spend time on an island as a couple. Get those feet off the floor by sitting on a bench, couch, or bed (hint, wink). Toss the devices into the air and float away from the chaos as a team.
  • Continue to date each other. We understand how difficult it is to plan ahead and secure a sitter, but it is always worthwhile in the end. We took a difficult turn in the podcast at this point. We share a personal, difficult story that teaches us a new lesson: always have each other’s backs.
  • Make a ten-point list. It generates interesting discourse that isn’t solely focused on the kids or housekeeping.
  • First and foremost, you must like yourself.
