One of the most exciting things about a new relationship is that spark, right?
In the beginning the two of you could barely keep your hands off each other, but somewhere along the line, life happened and those intense feelings have gone from strong flames to dying embers.
In a fast-paced world it seems that “semi-happy” relationships have become the norm, and yes, it’s not only long-standing relationships that can get stuck in a rut. The “not-so-happy”, “not-so-unhappy” state of mind can affect relatively new couples as well, starting when the initial romance are replaced by realities.
So, have you entered the “post romantic era” in your relationship? When you think about him/her, do you feel a bit meh? Not excited, not angry, just meh.
Maybe you’re fantasizing about being single or seeing other people. Or, maybe you’re just not communicating the way you used to, or you’re not interested in quality time with your partner and find yourself deliberately creating physical distance between the two of you. And then there’s the increase in conflict and the once endearing quirks that’s becoming increasingly annoying …
Is it is even possible to fall back in love? Absolutely!
We have a few expert tips on how to spice things up:
- Make time for each other. Sit with your partner every evening after everyone else is in bed. Goof around, playfully tease each other and enjoy each other’s company. Save water and shower together. Win-win!
- Plan an adventure. Try something new, something you can both look forward to. If you can organize a 24 hour babysitter, do it, go away for the weekend.
- Get in touch with your own sexuality. Put things in place so you’ll be frisky later. Read an erotic novel or watch a sexy movie to get you in the mood.
- Schedule sex. We need to ditch the myth that sex should always be spontaneous. Put sex on “project status” and make a conscious decision to move it high on your priority list. Also, make time for daytime sex. After a long day, who isn’t tired? We get it.
- Talk about books. No seriously! You’ll suddenly remember how irresistibly smart your partner is.
- Be attractive. Continue to woo your honey. Pack away the yoga pants, slap on a skirt and some lipstick. Wear pretty panties and match the bra. Try a new hairstyle, or for the guys, grow a beard. And shave, that goes for both sexes – a little landscaping never hurt anyone!
- Move great smelling cologne’s and lotions into your bathroom and bedroom. Essential oils will boost your libido and will make you feel sexy. Also, pamper your body so your partner can enjoy it.
- Sext him/her. Let’s be real, we’re constantly on our phones; take a minute to send a love message. Genius? I thought so.
If you want a relationship that looks and feels like the most amazing thing on earth, you have to treat it like it’s the most amazing thing on earth.
