Finding Love in Old Age

There’s no age limit when it comes to finding romantic love. Both the old and the modern times have seen young people fall in love and enter into relationships. Building a family used to be a personal achievement and a priority so people in the good old days married young to take advantage of their young healthy bodies. Nowadays, people have become more focused in their careers and personal growth that we have seen more marriages between middle-aged couples in Singapore. We think we’re more emotionally mature and financially stable when we settle down at an older age.

Young couples vs. Old couples in love

Young couples in love tend to focus more on their physical attraction, sexual desires, and bodily pleasures. Young couples tend to be less mature so they fight often, go through whirlwind romance, experience a rollercoaster of emotions, and have a high likelihood of breaking up. On the other hand, old couples rarely indulge in physical pleasures. They focus more on sharing intimate conversations and affectionate expressions of love. They tend to have a more mature and calm relationship.

How to rejuvenate love

Love can come knocking on anyone’s door regardless of age and status in life. Old people can still learn to love again just like they did when they were younger although probably not as enthusiastic as they used to. They can rekindle the romantic sides in them by putting on extra effort to be more active and social. They can rekindle love in their lives by giving romantic presents, going out on romantic dinner dates, sharing intimate conversations with a partner, and many more.

Advantages of finding love in old age

Old age can be a trap for an unhealthy sedentary lifestyle so finding romance in old age can be advantageous. You’ve probably heard it often that love can make one feel young again. This is most true for old folks who find reasons to remain healthy and active. This leads them to more physical activities that keep them away from old age related health issues.

Old folks may also have renewed vigor in their mental capacity. Finding a new purpose in life can lead them to venture into more creative and productive accomplishments. Many of the most successful people found their biggest successes when they reached the age of forty and above.

It’s also common for old folks to tend to feel depressed and unwanted in their latter years so finding love again would erase those negative emotions.

Why Massage Night is Always a Good Idea for Couples

 

Massage places are becoming a popular to-go to for relaxation in Singapore. Everyday activities involving work, kids and household chores sometimes leave a couple feeling stressed-out. Various forms of massage therapy are being offered by these massage centers, thus giving the customers an array of styles and oil-scents to choose from. These are the top reasons on why a massage night is always a good idea for couples:

  1. It is time-convenient. Most massage parlors are open from noon to dawn, thus couples can go to massage parlors after work and once the kids are all tucked-in. You can call earlier to schedule an appointment. This will maximize your time and will give you a good estimate on the length of time that you will be out. When you find a babysitter who can stay with the kids until you come home, then you are good to go! The kids won’t even know you were gone.

 

  1. It is inexpensive. Contrary to common misconceptions, getting a good massage need not to be expensive. Several massage parlors even offer discounted rates and promos. A couple of bucks for a soft bed, a soothing scent, a relaxing music background and a good therapeutic massage is all worth it for you and your spouse’s comfort.

 

  1. It is an escape from the busy city. Who wouldn’t want to take a break from city life for just a couple of minutes? A massage experience in a spa will give you an escape without really going far from home. The nearest massage place can give you the relaxing ambiance you want. Most massage parlors either have those classical background music or those water and nature sounds that will definitely make you feel relaxed until you fall into a deep, sound sleep.

  1. It is a good way to bond with your spouse. Going to a massage place together is a fun and intimate. Setting a regular massage date night gives the couple something to look forward to. It gives you some alone time without the kids and it gives you an experience that revitalizes the mind and body as well!

 

  1. It boosts the immune system. Stress lowers the immune system of a person. While you cannot totally avoid stress, you can do something to revitalize your body. Choosing the perfect massage style will soothe the muscle tensions you and your spouse have been complaining about. Ask on the details of the different massage suites offered by the therapist. This will revitalize the body, enabling it to perform at its optimum all over again!

 

  1. It allows you some quality time with your thoughts. Couples are often preoccupied with daily activities and concerns which sometimes result to headache. Allowing yourself some quality time with your thoughts will give you break and clarity. A healthy me-time can be achieved all the while you are lying beside your spouse who is also busy with his thoughts as well! Enjoying a good massage while having some time to internalize and relax the mind is indeed a good way to distress!

With all these benefits, scheduling a massage night with your spouse is not only healthy for the body and mind, but is also healthy for your relationship.
