00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:13,380
friend just talking about your relationship is not going to be enough.

3
00:00:13,690 --> 00:00:19,840
If you really want to rebuild the foundation of love trust and respect that you once enjoyed with your

6
00:00:28,860 --> 00:00:33,240

to rebuild the relationship.

8
00:00:35,310 --> 00:00:39,140

10

their face upon the slightest provocation.

11
00:00:47,100 --> 00:00:49,600

to the rain on the roof.

16
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,270
Any activity that will help you remember why you fell in love with your partner for the first time is

17
00:01:15,270 --> 00:01:16,790
a good place to start.

18
00:01:17,250 --> 00:01:23,010
You can also spice things up by trying something new such as taking a trip to an exotic location or

19
00:01:23,010 --> 00:01:24,460
trying a new sport.

20
00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:29,610
