There is no rule-book or any tutorials that would make you an expert in the field of “relationships”. You need to take one step at a time and never let that spark go away. There are some activities that the two people in love can come together for. How about skipping that movie plan and going to an amusement park? Believe us, it will be fun! Here are some ideas to reignite that romance that you felt is fading away.
Pick Up A Hobby Together.
One loves cooking, the other loves painting! There are chances that you both don’t share the same hobby. But that doesn’t mean, you can’t!
Find a fun activity that you both revel in. Be kids again and see how your perceptions about each other get better. Both of you will learn something new this way. Of course, you’ll have a better thing to do when you want to spend time together. Those coffee dates can take a break for a while!
Don’t think too hard while selecting a hobby, it just needs to be simple and worth giving your time to.
Get In The Car… For A Road Trip!
When was the last time you both were in the car together and traveling to someplace other than a restaurant or a grocery store? We bet it’s been a long time!
This needs to change right now. A road trip is the best way to keep that love alive. Remember the time when you just started dating and drove with no destination. Just sitting in the car, laughing and getting to know each other. Bring that back! No more delaying this trip, it’s time to travel by some beautiful sceneries.
Digital Detox: Couple Edition
There are so many distractions, the one being in our hands all the time. Yes, your cell phones! How are we supposed to have conversations when our eyes are glued to the phones? Even if we keep them aside for a while, we tend to choose another screen (Television or laptop) as a replacement. Every couple needs to get off the internet and look at each other. It’s time to unplug!
When you finally get around that digital detox, you’ll see that there are so many conversations you never had. Begin with this cleanse and your relationship will be rejuvenated!
Unplanned Moments – That’s Exciting!
Making plans is overrated!
Give a twist to your day off with a touch of spontaneity. Don’t plan that outing. Just get in the car with your partner and keep doing things that you feel like on the way. Craving an ice-cream? Make a stop near an ice-cream parlor and savor a new flavor together!
You’ll realize that unplanned moments carry fresh air with them. You are able to see a new light in your bond as you step outside to spend time together with no planning. Let’s see how creative you can get.
Those Pizza Slices Are Calling You.
Yes, we just mentioned pizza and heard your empty stomach making noises. It’s alright, pizza has that effect!
Why not involve pizza (in a large quantity!) in your relationship? Take some help from the internet and search for all the pizza places near you. Now convince your person to taste the pizza of every place you found. Both of you will devour the first few slices and then, it might get hard to finish the “challenge”. But as long as memories are created, there is nothing else that matters!
After you experience all the places, let us know where you found the best pepperoni pizza! On our way!
A “Starry” Romance!
Let’s get a little Hollywood here! Lie under the stars and talk about the infinities. It’s good to recreate those movie scenes you love. Being dramatic occasionally would never hurt anyone. Watch the stars and spot the constellations. Some deep talks are bound to happen at that moment.
Let those stars bring magic in your lives and rekindle the love under the stars. You’ll realize that movies are not as unrealistic as we thought them to be. Lying under the stars and staring into the dark sky makes a beautiful moment.
Take A Stroll In A New Neighborhood.
Try to get off early from work one day (this goes for both of you!) and go for a walk in a new neighborhood. You’ll come across some surprising aspects. Maybe stop by a book shop and have a few minutes of exploring the shelves.
The freshness of the new streets will have an unexpected impact on your love. It’s all positive!
You’ll see new faces in the crowd and that would definitely be a refreshing part of this stroll. Things like these break the monotony and give you a new perspective towards your life and love.
A Picnic Date!
Daytime dates are beautiful and how about changing the venue this time?
Get those picnic baskets out and make some delicious sandwiches to pack. Put your mat amidst the greenery and give a new meaning to date with this picnic. We bet you don’t go out to an open space together often! Start doing it more, at least twice a month.
The fresh air and pretty green surroundings would make you want to come back again for another session of rejuvenation. Every relationship needs a new edge and it can be achieved by visiting different places and trying different things together!
Stay In For A Fancy Dinner.
Don’t look so shocked! You can have a fancy dinner at home too. Skip making those reservations at an expensive restaurant this time and cook a meal with a theme in your kitchen.
Choose a cuisine you both like to relish and plan everything around that theme. For instance, if you pick Italian food, go for an Italian cocktail and put on an Italian show or movie. That would be really fun and you would never get bored when you pick a fresh theme every time.
Also, you’ll learn to cook new dishes this way. That’s cherry on top!
Cuddling Needs No Excuses!
There are more things to do in bed with your partner apart from what you have been thinking. Why not get close but let it be a cuddling night? Snuggle close to each other and stay there for as long as it comforts you.
Hold on tight and you will experience great energy as you lie there embracing your partner. Such moments need to fit in your day as they would bring you both closer. You don’t need an excuse to curl up with your lover.
This cuddling might lead to the next level of getting physically intimate and it can have some unexpected but great elements!
A Night In The Tent!
Don’t be confused, we are just suggesting camping!
Relive those school camping days with your lover. We hope you have those survival skills with you. You might need that if you decide to put your tent in a remote forest area. We know it sounds wild but couples deserve to have fun this way too!
So, grab your camping essentials and head to a campsite with your partner. We assure you that it would be an amazing night that you’ll remember for a long time.
Cocktail Night For Two!
No, this time you are not going out for drinks! Stay home, light some candles, put on soothing music and “celebrate” the cocktail night.
Imagine the two of you in a pretty date setup at home. That sounds romantic!
Grab your favorite cocktails or prepare them and enjoy every sip in the company of each other. This is an unconventional yet beautiful way of celebrating the bond that you share. Why go to a pub when you can have a better time at your place?
Wrap Some Presents!
Why wait for Christmas to exchange sweet and meaningful gifts? Do that right now!
You can get a little creative in this plan as well. Challenge each other with a particular kind of gift that doesn’t cost much but is hard to find. Your innovative skills need charging and this is the best way to accomplish that.
Always keep the thrill alive in the relationship. Such surprise presents would help you keep the excitement going! Time to put your creativity to work.
Bucket List For Couples.
People prepare a bucket list for themselves and include everything they wish to achieve in their lifetime. Let’s talk about preparing this list for couples. There should be one!
We recommend you to sit together and compile a list of things that dream of doing as partners for life. When you are in the process of preparing that “couple bucket list”, there would be so many things that you’ll figure out about one another. That’s when your bond will strengthen. Imagine checking off the things from the list when you finally fulfill them!
Plan Ahead For Bedroom Action
Sleeping with your partner needs to be full of spark every time. While most of us want to keep it mysterious and surprising, planning or scheduling the action under the sheets can turn out to be pretty amazing. We urge you to try it once! You won’t regret.
Experimenting in bed with your lover is always thrilling and why not give it a twist with this activity. Scheduling the time for physical intimation sounds weird but it is definitely worth a try. So, start building the excitement already!
Give A Personal Touch To Your Home
The place that belongs to both of you should have certain elements that are special to your relationship. Design pretty corners in the house with exclusive stuff that is close to your heart or reminds you of your special moments together!
When a couple decorates their home, it gives them an opportunity to know what the other person likes or dislikes. You might have an argument about the color of the walls, but you will come to a conclusion that will become a cherished memory forever.
Binge-Watching But With A Twist…
Snuggling on the couch with your favorite person with a show playing on the TV is a story of every home. Here’s what you need to slightly change in that routine. Put on a show that your partner likes and you haven’t watched ever. It is a really great activity for lovers who live together.
When you watch each other’s favorite TV shows, it speaks love! This is just a subtle way of expressing your feelings to one another and telling them that you care.
Serious Conversations Won’t Hurt…
We need to get a little serious here too. When in a relationship, you would talk about a lot of things and share details about your day with your partner but practical discussions are also valuable.
Sit together and discuss your finances. We know it might be a difficult conversation with all the numbers involved but this is crucial for a healthy relationship.
Yes, it doesn’t sound any “lovey-dovey”, however, such talks are good for the long-run decisions. Also, it will bring you both closer! Look at the bright side.
Give And Take Of Massages.
Had a really hectic day at work? Instead of taking that pill for relieving your pain, go for a massage session! Of course, with your lover.
Create a calm environment at your place, line-up the essential oils and get comfortable on the couch or wherever you find peace. Let your partner give you a massage relaxing all your muscles and then, do the same with him/her. The romance will arise with this activity in a totally organic way!
Can you suggest a better way to get intimate and feel relaxed? We guess every couple needs to add this to their routine.
Questions That Matter.
You plan your outings, dates and movie nights, add another day to this list now. That day would be dedicated to asking each other certain personal questions and being updated by all that’s going on in life. Talking about family, work and health is necessary and should not be ignored.
You need to reach a comfort level with your partner and this would be a great step towards that. Make this a habit. Sharing your deepest secrets or things that bother you is therapeutic and doing it with someone you love is alleviating!
