- Spend More Time in Bed Together:
If you’re an early riser, consider getting back into bed for a little while after your partner wakes up. Use this time to chat and cuddle.
- Help Each Other with Small Tasks:
Small gestures, like wiping the steam off the mirror before your partner shaves, can mean a lot.
- Share Things Together:
Whether it’s sharing a bottle of beer instead of each having your own, or reading the same newspaper, sharing can bring you closer.
- Hug Often:
Greet each other with a hug when you come home to create a loving atmosphere.
- Let Your Partner Be Right:
Avoid constant criticism. Sometimes, let your partner have their way and avoid nitpicking their decisions.
- Try New Things Together:
Whether it’s going on a trip or attending a symphony concert, shared experiences can keep the relationship exciting.
- Regular Date Nights:
Set aside a specific time, like Wednesday nights, for just the two of you. Use this time to enjoy activities you both love.
- Walk Together:
Walking to a nearby destination can provide a private space for conversation that you might not get when taking public transportation or driving.
- Have Deep Conversations:
If there’s an issue you’ve been arguing about for a long time, sit down and discuss it in detail. Discuss important topics like finances, intimacy, and responsibilities to understand each other’s perspectives and find common ground.
