Five ways to save your relationship
1 Spend quality time together...It might seem obvious, but the couple that plays together has a far better chance of sticking it out than those who lead separate lives in all but name. According to a report by the Office of National Statistics, UK couples only spend an average of two-and-a-half hours a day in one another's company (a figure that's halved for couples with children), and around an hour of that is spent watching TV. With so little time to share, how can we honestly expect a relationship to continue to grow unless we make the effort to allow it to do so?
It's the little things that make us feel cherished and understood, just as it's the lack of those same little things that makes us feel neglected and alone. So turn off that television and make a promise to one another that you'll have dinner together at least three times a week so that you can once again learn how to really talk to one another and communicate. (And try to squeeze in a leisurely weekend brunch, too – the languor of such a date makes it deliciously intimate).

I appreciate your blog very much. It may be too late for some and also may be the beginning for some. This is the main ingredient lacks in relationship especially when it comes to marital status. I think, the society pay too much attention in earning 'More Money" than people and relationships. Keep up your good work.
