Currently listening to: Despacito – Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee, feat. Justin Bieber
Despacito (slowly)
Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito (I want to smell your neck slowly)
Deja que te diga cosas al oído (let me whisper things in your ear)
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo (so that you’ll remember if you’re not with me)
Despacito (slowly)
Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito (I want to undress you with my kisses, slowly)
Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto (I sign the walls of your labyrinth)
Y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito (and make your whole body a manuscript)
What do you think is the key to lasting romantic relationships?
Prompt snagged from: TCMC
This is something that I’ve asked a psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and psychiatric nurse practitioner who have all been in long-term relationships.
Their responses:
One thing they all agreed on was how much scent and physical chemistry matter—like, literally how your body responds to the other person. One of them mentioned pheromones and how our brains pick up on someone’s natural scent. You either feel drawn to it or you don’t.
But the part that stuck with me the most? Someone said, “Keep treating your partner like they’re your boyfriend or girlfriend.” That hit. It’s so easy to fall into routines—managing errands, sharing space, doing the day-to-day. But that spark fades fast when things become stagnant—if you stop flirting, stop being curious, stop putting in effort. A relationship gets dull when both people assume the other will always be there, no matter how disconnected things feel.
