But Commitment and Satisfaction Need To Be There Too, For It To Last

WASHINGTON - Do intimate partners really love each other more with each passing year, as suggested by the Hallmark anniversary or Valentine's Day card? Do they see their love getting better over time? A new study on premarital relationship development in this month's Journal of Personality and Social Psychology published by the American Psychological Association explores how love improves over time for romantic couples if satisfaction and commitment increase too.

You are attracting the type of relationship you have with your spouse. This may be hard to believe, especially if you are unhappy.

There are so many articles written about the powerful law of attraction, but few address its application in marriage. Most people believe that marriage is supposed to be challenging. Couples find it difficult to change and even more difficult to change their spouse. They begin to focus on the things that annoy them about each other and accept some level of dissatisfaction. Using the law of attraction in marriage can remedy this cycle that our society has adopted. The law of attraction states: "Like attracts like." This means you attract what you think about most and when you add emotion, you attract it even faster.
