Experts from 'Married at First Sight' Share Love Tips for Singles and Couples on Hebrew Love Day
On the Hebrew holiday of Tu B'Av, known as the Jewish day of love, experts from the Israeli reality show "Married at First Sight", Dr. Yael Doron, Dr. Kalanit Ben Ari, and clinical psychologist Gilad Horovitz, offered relationship advice for both singles and couples. They addressed common challenges and provided practical tips to foster love and renewal in relationships.
Dr. Yael Doron emphasized the importance of renewal for singles and married couples alike. For singles, she advised breaking repetitive dating patterns by trying new experiences, sharing something personal, or surprising oneself to create freshness in encounters. For couples, she recommended simple acts like asking new questions to reignite connection without needing extravagant gestures.
Dr. Kalanit Ben Ari encouraged singles to focus on self-awareness by asking how they are perceived in relationships rather than only seeking the right partner. She urged continuing a full life with hobbies and social activities instead of pausing life for love. For couples, she stressed that love is shown through behavior daily, not just feelings, and advised creating excitement together, appreciating existing positives, and taking responsibility for one’s role in conflicts.
Gilad Horovitz highlighted three ongoing dilemmas in love: freedom versus commitment, adventure versus security, and passion versus intimacy. He explained that these tensions persist before and after marriage and require ongoing balance and conscious choice. Horovitz advised singles to seek partners with whom they can share these dilemmas and couples to embrace change and curiosity about each other to sustain passion and intimacy.
The experts collectively underscored that love is a continuous process of learning, choice, and renewal rather than a static state. They wished everyone a year of genuine, close, and exciting love, encouraging readers to share their own best tips for love and relationships.
