There comes a point in any relationship where you hit a wall. You are operating by routine, and things tend to get a little stale. You’re still happy with the person, it’s just not as exciting as it used to be. So, what do you do?
You try new things, of course! And you don’t just do one random activity and call it a day, you have to try and incorporate new and exciting activities to your routine. Things like once a month road trips or hilarious games you can play together. It really doesn’t matter what, as long as you’re doing it together.
Need some ideas? Just check out what these 25 people tried. They incorporated fun and exciting activities into their lives, and their relationship definitely sounds better for it. So get out there, talk to your boo, and try something new! I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it.
Every couple should try these 25 things:
1.
In the shower, try to pass a bar of soap between butt cheeks to the other’s butt cheeks, without dropping it.
2.
Do something you both think you “hate” but have never actually tried.
3.
I shaved his face for him. Not with a straight razor. I had to take it slow, and it was both incredibly funny and intimate to have to be that close and look at all the details of his face to make sure I didn’t accidentally cut him at all.
4.
Worm Racing. My SO and I tried it and have never laughed so hard. You put your head and torso inside a sleeping bag, your hands in your pockets and lie down on the floor on your stomach. Place your feet on the far wall of your house and race on your stomach (like a blind worm) without using hands across the house. Amazing.
5.
Staycation! Get a nice hotel or air bnb for the night somewhere not too far away and go out together for a nice meal. Just the fact that you’re not going back to your own home(s) after makes it feel like a real luxury experience.
