[Want to overcome it] Love songs for couples and married pairs in a rut

The longer a relationship lasts, the more likely you’ll hit a “rut.”

When you first start dating, you probably think, “That would never happen to us,” but if you’ve been together a long time—whether as a couple or as spouses—it’s something almost everyone experiences.

Here, we’re introducing plenty of love songs that revolve around that lull.

Pay attention to lyrics that express honest feelings toward your partner and that take you back to the early days of your relationship.

Some songs, unfortunately, end in a breakup, but there are also many that encourage you to think, “If we can get through this rough patch, there’s a bright future waiting for us!”

Find tracks that match how you’re feeling right now and listen as you take a moment to reaffirm each other’s feelings.
