Romance is a very important part of our lives.  When we are satisfied in this area, we enjoy life more and are better able to take on the rigors of everyday life.  When we aren’t satisfied, we feel empty and the daily problems we face can seem insurmountable.

We usually don’t purposely neglect romance.  We might be too tired or stressed, and it becomes the last thing on our minds.  Relationships take some work, but when we are stressed, any type of work is unappealing.  So romance is left for birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions.  Spontaneous romance is often not a part of our lives, although it would be a welcome addition.

Lack of time and increased stress kill romance.  But it’s important to note that just because there is a lack of romance in the relationship doesn’t mean the two people don’t care for each other.

Just as money can buy more free time, it can also help promote romance in a relationship.  The extra time will allow you to de-stress and find yourself more in the mood for romance.  It will also give you extra time to spend with your partner.

You would also be able to afford romantic gestures you might not normally do, such as going on a cruise or to a very expensive restaurant or for a weekend getaway.  Although wealth is not needed for better romance, it certainly can enhance it.

Without adequate money, your relationship can suffer no matter how compatible you are.  Money worries are a prime reason for divorce in couples who have been married a short time.  Those incoming bills that constantly remind you of your lack of money can take their toll on your relationship.
