EASY TIP #3: TOUCH ALL THE TIME
You can always tell new lovers by the way they can't keep their hands off one another.
But as you settle into a relationship, it starts to seem like the only time you touch is when you're about to have sex. During your day-to-day life, kisses are perfunctory. Hugs are brief and reserved for greetings and goodbyes.
When relationships start to break down, touch is one of the first things to go. You simply don't want to lovingly touch someone who's making you feel hurt, upset, or angry. Withholding physical affection becomes a weapon in your battles.
I'm going to say this once and I don't want you to ever forget it:
NEVER HOLD BACK AFFECTION AS A WEAPON.
Yes, your partner is going to make you feel mad at times. Yes, touching him is going to be the last thing you want to do.
BUT DO IT ANYWAY.
When communication breaks down, touch can restore it. What can't be said in words can be said with a kiss.
Remember that men struggle with communicating as effectively as women. Men tend to be better at showing love through actions rather than saying the words you want to hear.
So don't punish him for not saying, "I'm sorry," or, "I love you." Instead, let him show it by touching him lovingly and letting him touch you in return.
Many women have told me that they get so angry at their husbands, because their husbands seem to think that makeup sex will solve all their problems. Sex doesn't solve anything, according to these women. The problems are still there after you leave the bedroom.
Although this may be true for the women, I want you to recall that sex has an important symbolic meaning for men. Men can be great romantics, believing that love can solve any problem. So, when a man makes love to a woman, he is effectively telling her, "Our argument doesn't matter in the face of my love for you."
As women, we know better - or, at least, we THINK we know better. We know that problems require talking through.
But perhaps men are also right. Perhaps the best way to solve a problem in a relationship is to remind each other, first and foremost, how much you love one another.
So keep touching one another, no matter how mad you feel. A hug and a kiss can relieve a lot of heartache. Even holding hands or resting a hand on your partner's leg can remind you both of the connection you share.

Cant agree more : Woman - problems require talking through. And, man - problems require 'working/action' through.
