relationships

This tip applies to long-term serious relationships. Think of doing things for your SO as a competition between you and your SO. When both people are trying to beat each other at expressing their love, giving time, doing acts of service, showing affection, etc., there's no real loser.

I think it works well if both people are aware of it and receptive to the extra attention! Sometimes, people just need space so its good to have the conversation first so the person wanting space isn't suddenly bombarded with love. haha
