Remember when the two of you could not get enough of each other?  You called or sent text messages all day long and you could not wait to get home at night?

What happened? You still love your significant other but the thrill is gone.  Men and women experience this in relationships but their approach to “fixing” the problem may be quite different.

During your courtship days, both of your brains were flooding your system with feel good chemicals.  Hey, that is just science so accept it.  Somewhere along the way the two of you established a relationship that you were both happy with.

Now though, it does seem a little boring.  The same old routine and all the hassles that each of you deal with at work.  No wonder you are feeling dissatisfied and wondering what to do.

The good news is that this is totally fixable, the news  you may not like as much is that you actually have some work to do to accomplish it.  The fact is that successful couples have been where you are and they can help you bring the sizzle back.

Courtship. Sounds like an ancient word, right? Oh and do men even court women anymore? If they do, courting these days might go something like this: guy buys girl drink, girl accepts drink, guy flirts, girl flirts back, girl goes back to his place, girl gets in guys bed.

Today, courtship barely exists and dating is simply meeting someone and sharing his or her bed over a period of several months. Then like a box of cereal, that person gets tired of having the same old thing everyday and moves on to something different.
