\u00a0However, there are many tweaks that many couples swear by that you can implement to improve your relationship. Therefore, we\u2019ve compiled the most unique pieces of advice that may seem counterintuitive but are effective. So give them a look; perhaps they can strengthen your bond and help it last forever.\n

The Expert team gathered the most effective small steps you can take to\u00a0make your relationship stronger.\n\n

1. Sleep under separate blankets.\n\n

There are many scenes in\u00a0movies that depict the struggle of\u00a0a\u00a0person pulling the blanket to\u00a0their side because their partner took the blanket while asleep. And since we\u00a0know how important sleep\u00a0is, we\u00a0suggest investing in\u00a0separate covers\u00a0that are customized to\u00a0your needs. This way, you can still share the bed and enjoy the cuddles while being sure that your blanket will stay where it\u2019s supposed to\u00a0be.\n\n

2. Have separate bathrooms.\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n\n
\n
The bathroom is\u00a0often the most private area in\u00a0the house, and sharing it\u00a0can\u00a0be\u00a0a\u00a0recipe for disaster. If\u00a0one of\u00a0you doesn\u2019t like sharing private spaces, one of\u00a0you lacks sufficient space for toiletries and towels, or\u00a0you have different cleaning habits, separate bathrooms can work for you.\n\n
\n
3. Synchronize your calendars.\n\n

Synchronizing your\u00a0calendars\u00a0is\u00a0a\u00a0great way to\u00a0keep the 2\u00a0of\u00a0you on\u00a0board with each other\u2019s plans. Different schedules and working hours can make it\u00a0difficult to\u00a0plan things together. So\u00a0this method will save lots of\u00a0time and energy. Moreover, it\u00a0can help you remember important dates, such as\u00a0birthdays and special occasions, so\u00a0you can stay on\u00a0board without having to\u00a0stress about\u00a0it.\n\n
\n
4. Treat your partner like a\u00a0best friend.\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n

\n
\n\n\n\n\n
\n
Humans tend to\u00a0be\u00a0their true selves around their friends and say things without second-guessing. We\u00a0know that this is\u00a0a\u00a0tough one because it\u2019s not always easy to\u00a0tell your partner what you think and feel. However, actress\u00a0Blake Lively\u00a0swears by\u00a0this approach with her husband,\u00a0Ryan Reynolds. She said she treats him like a\u00a0girlfriend and he\u00a0treats her like his buddy.\n
If\u00a0something bugs her, she\u00a0says, \u201cHey, this happened. It\u00a0upset\u00a0me. This is\u00a0how I\u00a0feel. What do\u00a0I\u00a0do?\u201d It\u2019s just like having a\u00a0casual chat between 2\u00a0besties.\n\n
\n
5. Have alone time.\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n\n
\n
While you may think your partner isn\u2019t paying attention to\u00a0you or\u00a0would rather be\u00a0alone\u00a0than hang out with you, this could not be\u00a0further from the truth. For your relationship to\u00a0flourish, you both need alone time. Me-time allows\u00a0us to\u00a0recharge our batteries, relax, and just be\u00a0ourselves.\u00a0One might\u00a0say that it\u2019s just as\u00a0important as\u00a0together time.\n\n
\n
6. Never stop dating.\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
\n\n\n\n\n
\n
After years of\u00a0being together, you might be\u00a0past the honeymoon period and into a\u00a0steady, comfortable relationship. But if\u00a0you want to\u00a0keep the spark alive, it\u2019s crucial that you never stop\u00a0dating\u00a0your lover. When you go\u00a0on\u00a0dates, you\u2019ll always have something to\u00a0talk about, interesting things to\u00a0do\u00a0together, and something exciting to\u00a0anticipate on\u00a0your next date.\n
