Just as every action has a reaction, so does inaction. Everyone changes as they grow, but the amount of effort & care you show your partner, shouldn’t. Even more so than infidelity or betrayals, an issue that causes so many couples to break up is that one or both of them just stop trying. They stop planning dates, stop surprising each other, stop loving each other in their love languages, they treat the relationship as a given. Until one day, feeling underappreciated, unvalued, unloved, becomes overwhelming. Until one day, the feeling of “They aren’t the person I fell in love with anymore” shows up. Love is like a garden in the sense that tending to it each day makes it easier & much more likely that it’ll continually be blossoming beautifully, than ignoring it for a while & then attempting to get it back on its track with grand gestures & a tremendous amount of effort. Act as you did in the beginning and there will never be an end. When you take care of things, they last. #datingadvice #datingdifferently #relationshiptruths #lyonselitematchmaking

Just like you can change your life with a gratitude journal, you can change your relationship with one. It shifts your focus to what’s right in your relationship, by basically keeping a record of why you chose each other. It changes the way you connect, especially on the hard days. It builds a habit of consistently noticing what makes your partner so special. The more you recognize the good, the easier & more natural it becomes to share that appreciation out loud. Something small that goes such a long way in keeping your connection healthy & strong. #gratitudejournal #improvingyourrelationships #relationshiphacks #datingadvice #lyonselitematchmaking

We accept the love we think we deserve. If you’ve ever watched a romcom, been on social media, or survived through a breakup, chances are you’ve seen this old cliche. Well, it’s a cliche for a reason. If you have toxic relationship after toxic relationship/situationship, if you keep repeating the same patterns, you need to take a step back and start to look at your experiences through a different lens. Start to hold yourself accountable for the role you play- what standards are you actually holding other people to? What red flags are you consistently choosing to ignore? What behaviour are you accepting that you don’t actually want? As hard as it can be, it’s time to do some introspection to realize that your actions are revealing that you don’t love yourself as much as you should. Consciously or subconsciously you think of yourself as less worthy, so you settle for toxic people. Thankfully, this is something that’s fixable. The first step? Give yourself a break from dating or crazy friendships. Find values you love about yourself and start to work on that. Be patient with yourself, practice self-compassion, don’t be too harsh. And don’t be afraid to be alone for a little while you’re looking for yourself. It’s better to be alone than with bad company. #toxicrelationships #datingproblems #datingadvice #selflovefirst #lyonselitematchmaking

In today's online-first dating world, the way we ignite connection has evolved- and it starts long before that first in-person meeting! But the question is: how do you go from exchanging words to exchanging sparks? The answer lies in how you build anticipation & intrigue, and it takes more than just a clever opening line. It's an art— one worth perfecting. #onlinedating #lyonselitematchmaking

The best kind of intimacy isn’t physical. It’s the warmth of knowing you can be fully vulnerable, unfiltered, and understood. It’s feeling safe enough to share the raw, unpolished parts of yourself, knowing they’ll be held with tenderness. It’s the listening, the understanding, the holding space for each other, the presence that doesn’t waver. The kind of closeness that matters, has nothing to do with touch. #intimacy #datingadvice #lyonselitematchmaking

Love is a lot more than just what you say. It’s in how you stay, how you show up every day, in all of the big & small ways. It’s the feeling of being truly seen, heard, and loved exactly as you are, right where you are. It’s the feeling of comfort, of finally having ease, feeling like you can fully just be you. That you’re appreciated, no matter what you do. It grows with time, deepening with every shared laugh and glance. It’s a beautiful feeling that makes you realize why, even after heartbreak, love is always worth giving another chance. #reallove #healthylove #findingloveagain #lyonselitematchmaking

It’s not about having the ‘perfect’ relationship. Because perfection doesn’t exist in real love. But finding someone who chooses to be there, even when life gets hard and the path isn’t clear. Loving someone who loves you back in a way that’s patient, honest, and true. Listening, talking, & keeping communication open. Someone who chooses to stand beside you, even through the messy, complicated, and sometimes challenging parts- facing them together with respect & care. Real love doesn’t ask you to tolerate pain or accept things that break you. But it knows that while neither of you are perfect, you’re both willing to grow & show up for each other, even on the toughest days. It’s not about perfection; it’s two people who choose each other, every single day, and commit to building something beautiful, something real. #healthyrelationships #datingdifferently #dating #lyonselitematchmaking

You’ll never come to an agreement if you’re focused on arguing about who’s “right”. You don’t even need to agree, you just need to acknowledge. Taking accountability is one of the biggest barriers to conflict resolution, these days so many people are stuck in their egos. But there’s also something to be said about the way you explain your feelings. It needs to be done with tact, not as an attack. Understanding, expressing but also listening with compassion, attempting to resolve with empathy. Healthy, open, non-judgmental communication. Repair & connection require stepping beyond your own perspective, honoring the unseen weight of your partner’s pain. #conflictresolution #healthycommunication #communicationskills #healthyrelationships #lyonselitematchmaking

When love meets legalities, things can get... complicated. It’s one of those moment that sparks heated emotions and silent hesitations. But what if the very conversation you’re avoiding held the potential to deepen your trust & redefine what commitment truly means? #prenups #loveandmarriage #lyonselitematchmaking

It’s not easy to let go of someone you felt something so deep and genuine with. Especially if that chapter feels unfinished. But sometimes, chapters close before you’re ready. Sometimes you have no other option than to learn from the lessons left behind & cherish the beautiful moments you did have. Just because something didn’t last forever doesn’t mean it wasn’t real or profound. The timing doesn’t diminish the meaning. Endings can be just as beautiful too. Sometimes, it’s the first step to your new, better beginning. #endingscanbebeautifultoo #lovelessons #findinglove #lyonselitematchmaking
