How to keep a guy in love
If you are in a relationship with a guy who means the world to you, you probably want to make sure that he stays in love with you -- for good.
Relationships worth having call for a lot of hard work, patience and effort by both parties. It isn't always a walk in the park.

You need to work to keep your partner in love with you, and he needs to work to maintain your love, as well.
Indicate to him that you appreciate him: When a person gets more comfortable in a relationship, it is not uncommon for her to take it for granted and forget to show her partner how appreciated he is.
Look your boyfriend in the eye and tell him how grateful you are to have him in your life.
Make him feel loved and appreciated, whether it's with a simple "I love you" or a close embrace in the morning before he leaves for work.
Look good for him
In a relationship, it is crucial for both people to make an attempt to look good for each other.
You can do this by staying physically fit, dressing nicely or engaging in proper grooming routines.

Do not get so comfortable with your boyfriend that you stop trying to impress him.
It is okay for your boyfriend to see you in sweats with your hair up in a bun sometimes, but you also need to remind him of one of the things that attracted him to you in the first place.
Think like him
One effective way for women to keep their partners in love is by learning how to think like men. It is certainly no secret that men and women often share absolutely different interests.
To connect with your boyfriend, go out of your way to learn about the things that make him tick, whether it's sports or his job.

Knowing about and understanding his passions can do wonders in bringing you closer to him and keeping him head-over-heels in love with you.
Give him space
To maintain a healthy relationship, it is important for both parties to be independent and have their own lives.
If you are together too much, you don't have any opportunity to miss each other, either. Make it a point to spend regular time apart.

For example, he can go out with his best buddies alone on Thursday nights, and you can watch the latest chick flick with your girlfriends.
The more independent you are, the most interesting you will be to him when you are together, as well.
Be honest
One of the most vital components to a relationship is honesty and openness. Do not hide things from your boyfriend.

Create an environment that is trusting, free and safe. The safer he feels in the relationship, the happier he will be around you.
Tip
Laugh at his jokes. Make him feel special by letting him know that he can make you laugh uproariously and genuinely.
Laughing also is an effective tension-reducing relaxation method. The more you laugh together with your boyfriend, the better off you and your relationship will be.
