Hello amazing Hive friends! How is your Monday going? For today's blog, I would like to share some relationship tips that has help me and partner to keep the fire burning in our 4-year relationship.

Want to know the secret to keeping a relationship as fresh as a morning cup of coffee? Simple—the answer is date night. Couples, listen up. If you want to keep your relationship healthy, you should make time for dates.

We've all heard the cliché line from long-term couples about the spark fizzling out. “We have been together for too long, and the fire has burned out.” Well, let me drop some truth bombs on you, my friends—that's not how it should be. Whether you've been together for days or years, love isn't a walk in the park (well, sometimes it is). It's a daily commitment, a choice you make over and over again. Yeah, there might be moments when your partner's not as lovable as she was yesterday, but guess what? We still choose them—that is love.

In the midst of our crazy schedules, my partner and I make it a habit to squeeze in quality time. We'll hit the town, grab a coffee, or just cozy up at home. A date night doesn’t have to break the bank or resemble a Hollywood romance scene. A simple stroll in the park or a movie night with chips and soda can do wonders for your relationship. The key is soaking in each other's company and reviving those sweet memories from the beginning of your love story.

Like this coffee date of ours, we take my once-a-week work in the office as an opportunity for our coffee dates. I took him to my new found cafe located in Uytensu St, Cebu City. It was his first time in 10 Cafe and I was glad that he liked it as much as I did. We went there as early as 7 in the morning right after our shift has ended and ordered a Carbonara and Pork Liempo, I also ordered a hot chocolate drink.

If both of you are busy working, schedule a breakfast date together and just enjoy your conversations. You could talk for hours while enjoying a nice meal or a cup of coffee. It doesn’t have to be fancy or perfect. You just have to enjoy the moment.

So, it’s now time for you to spill the beans—how do you keep the flames burning in your relationship? Any other tips and suggestions?
