It's known that habitual behaviours can naturally cut us off from feeling. Routine sometimes has a negative connotation and we tend to get bored doing the same thing all the time, especially in relationships. The more routine-like a relationship becomes, the more likely you get bored and subconsciously take one's partner for granted.
You probably miss the kind of excitement the relationship had at the start, the good news is, there are different ways to keep the fire burning.
Here are 5 tips on how to spice up your relationship and add a little more excitement.
Date night at home
No matter what you choose to do, the most important things are to make your dates about connecting and to make your partner feel special – a few hours away from your normal routines.
Game night
Having a game night is a fun way to bond with your partner and create random memories you wouldn’t have planned for. It helps if you both can share a bottle of wine or whatever gets you going. You can play a series of interactive games, and test knowledge. Sometimes being too serious is usually the problem, you need to make time to have fun like kids.
Take trips together:
There is a special bonding that forms when taking trips with your partner. It doesn't have to be an overseas vacation, it may be a road trip to the next town, exploring places together, sometimes getting lost together. These are the little things that build up to adventure and lasting memories.
Take some "me" time:
It's always great to spend time with yourself, reflect, enjoy your own company and notice the things you miss the most. This can help to reignite passion while growing fonder.
