The Lover in your relationship craves adventure. The Lover is part of my 3-part framework: Partner, Lover, Friend. These are the three roles I’ve identified in your singular romantic relationship.

I’m out of town on vacation, so I’m bringing you an episode from my archives where I talk about The Lover.

  • You’ll hear a story about a romance that was dead and was resuscitated
  • You’ll get an adventurous habit
  • And I’ll give you a date night discussion topic so you and your lover can explore ways to tend the fire between you.

3 roles in your relationship

Two weeks ago, we talked about The Friend. The Friend wants to be understood. The Friend loves to hang out relaxing, not watching the clock because the Friend just wants to be known and to know you. The Friend is the one who gives you a sense of belonging.

Last week, we talked about The Partner. The Partner is the one who gets stuff done. The Partner loves accomplishment, and wants to feel like the two of you are one united TEAM.

Today, we’ll discuss The Lover. The Lover wants to explore. No time to be bogged down by responsibility, the Lover is the one who plays and indulges desires. The Lover is the one who keeps the chemistry alive in your relationship.
