Sure thing! Here are some quick and dirty answers.

​

Trust? By doing the small things that you said you would early in a relationship. Be on time. Remember promises and dates. Follow through. Keep your word. These are all relatively small individually, but collectively, they tell you a lot about how the person values you and if they are trustworthy.

​

Rekindle the spark? Creating new memories. By this I mean doing things for the first time. When we do that, we create dopamine, seratonin, cortisol and other chemicals that create emotion that create memories. They can be small things like picking up a hobby together or big things like moving or traveling.

​

How to know if someone is for you? Basically by the reverse. By making sure you can identify the people that are WRONG for you as quickly as possible. You can never be sure about the future, but you can keep your eyes open for red flags and go all in with the best possible hand. Any little thing at the beginning, turns into a big thing in a relationship. So make sure you're okay with everything now, before the relationship gets put under stress mode.

​

How to look at the now? Heard this recently: "If you're angry, you're living in the past. If you're worried, you're living in the future. Just concentrate on the now and that's where you'll find all the joy." I know that's easier said than done, but the past is immovable, nothing we can do to change it. But we CAN change our present. Don't let your past get in the way of your future.

​

Hope these helped!

Obviously I could speak an hour on each of those questions, but that's the marrow and gist of them!
