Sure, date nights, weekend getaways and making love are all part of a relationship. But, people also want to connect at a deeper level. How is your spiritual connection? Do you feel you are creating an inner life together?
This is a culture in the relationship, where symbols, rituals and an appreciation for your roles and goals, which also link you together. When you feel this connection, you will understand what if feels like to be part of the union you have joined.
One of the best ways to create shared meaning is to talk about your dreams with your partner, no matter how big or small they might be. You don’t have to agree with your partner’s dreams but you need to be respectful and supportive of one another’s dreams.
Another way to create shared meaning is to create traditions and rituals. Start by talking about the traditions and rituals that you had growing up. Tell your partner you best and worst memories.
How could you make them better? What are these rituals like for you today? Do you still celebrate them? What do they mean to you? Would you still like to celebrate them? If so, then how? Share your past experiences with your partner, even if they seem small. Share all the details.
Here are some examples to create more shared meaning in your relationship:
1. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and/or coffee together.
2. Hosting others at home.
3. Athletics and working out together. (Going for a walk together is working out.)
3. Taking care of each other when sick.
