Regularly express your feelings and expectations. Ensure both partners are on the same page about their emotional needs and desires.

Prioritise meaningful time together. Engage in activities that lead to connection and enjoyment.

Sustain gestures of love and appreciation consistently over time rather than in sporadic, intense bursts of affection.

Talk about shared goals in the relationship that contribute to the overall growth and strength of the relationship.

Introduce spontaneity and surprises into the relationship but in moderation. Make sure that these gestures match the comfort levels of both partners.

One must be aware of the signs of love bombing and acknowledge if the gestures seem disproportionate or insincere.
