“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind.
“Pooh!” he whispered.
“Yes, Piglet?”
“Nothing,” said Piglet, taking Pooh’s paw. “I just wanted to be sure of you.”
Winnie the Pooh, A.A. Milne

First you have to be there. Really be with your love partner. You don’t have to agree, you don’t have to please, you just have to understand where your partner is and listen fully.
With ups and downs of love, being there is the consistency that keeps you growing together and loving one another.
