6 expert tips to make your relationship stronger

When do you and your partner spend time together? Is it the humdrum of washing the dishes at night or do you hang out outside of domestic drudgery? Finding a hobby that you both enjoy could be a way to bring you together and make some new memories.

“If you don’t have at least one already, and even if you do, activities and interests in common are a good way of spending time together,” suggests Lamb. “It’s important to remember that contact is the important thing.”

“Try not to get competitive with each other. Remember to emphasise the shared experience. If you do find yourself getting competitive, it’s a good idea to get curious about why this may be and better still to acknowledge and discuss it with your partner.”
