Intimacy, Love, Romance Passion. What Do I Need To Have More Action?

May 20th, 2009 by Cheryl

Dear Friends,

Have you ever been in need of something in your relationship and you were not sure what to label this need? You may feel that you need more romance, passion, intimacy and/or love. I thought we would start out with some definitions. Believe it or not, these definitions came straight from the dictionary.

Romance-A dreamy, imaginative habit of mind; a relationship between two lovers; a strong, sometimes short-lived attachment, fascination, or enthusiasm for something: to try to influence or curry favor with especially by lavishing personal attention, gifts, or flattery; to carry on a love affair with; marked by the imaginative or emotional appeal of what is heroic, adventurous, remote, mysterious, or idealized, a disposition to ignore what is real

Intimacy- marked by very close association, contact, or familiarity something of a personal or private nature; the absence of fences created mysterious; a feeling of being intimate and belonging together; “their closeness grew as the night wore on”

Passion- a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept, sexual desire; an object of desire or deep interest; a powerful and intense emotion; something that is desired intensely, a feeling of strong sexual desire

Love- attraction based on sexual desire; affection and tenderness felt by lovers; unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another: as; a deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness; feeling of intense desire and attraction toward a person with whom one is disposed to make a pair; the emotion of sex and romance; to feel a lover’s passion, devotion, or tenderness for; a strong positive emotion of regard and affection

Desire- to wish or long for; want, to long or hope for; exhibit or feel desire for; stresses the strength of feeling and often implies strong intention or aim; stresses the force of physical appetite or emotional need

Whatever you feel your relationship is missing, I hope to present you with some articles on the ways you and your partner talk to each other in order to enjoy a more pro-active, Real Love relationship. I intend to delve a little deeper into being and feeling MORE of whatever definition from above YOU want to put into this sentence for yourself and your partner.

As one of my favorite country songs puts it, “a little less talk and a lot more action”, is the direction we are heading. To start adding more action to your relationship, re- read chapters 7- 14 in The Commitment Chronicles.

Let your creative mind start flowing
