I have been blessed with a romantic relationship that has been a tremendous source of energy and spiritual growth. Following a meditation I have been practicing, I have been able to reflect on and discard times my greed got in the way. Basically, greed comes in the form of desire - wanting more. Even though I had such a wonderful person in my life, for some reason at times I wanted that little bit extra from my circumstances. After continued practice with reflection and discarding, it became more and more clear that it was only my own actions and mind that required adjusting.
All you need to do is let go of greed while following the method. Greed is too often confused with happiness. Greed is actually the opposite of happiness - it is thinking you don't have enough and therefore need more. When you are grateful, you can better enjoy moments with your loved one. The greatest love is in fact to become one; big love is also about caring for others no matter who they are.
Taking this further, recognise you are actually originally one with everyone, so why not at least start with your significant other?
Even different religions allude to this idea of embracing the spirituality of intimacy. When I meditate with her, she often requests the topic of gratitude - and to her credit. It is very powerful to meditate with your partner on gratitude. Why not try it? 💞
