There comes a stage in every relationship when things feel monotonous. There is nothing to talk about and there is nothing more left to do. You feel bored and there is always a weird silence between you two. You both will repeatedly have the same arguments over the same thing and it is quite possible that you will also feel lonely sometimes. All these occur when your relationship is stagnating. There is nothing really to worry about though. You do not have to give up yet. There is still hope for you and there is a lot you can do to revive your relationship. Here are the 6 tips to revitalize your relationship.
1. Talk about the positives more
Instead of always blaming each other for the things not done, from now on make sure you talk more about the positives. Compliment each other more often. Tell your partner what you like about him/her the most. You will be surprised to know the effects once you try this. It will bring you guys a lot closer and all the distance will just disappear.
2. Be vocal if there is any underlying issue
Most couples fall out of love because there is hardly any communication. If there is a fight, most couples overcome that by just remaining silent. However this will only make your relationship worse. Every time there is a problem, be vocal about it. This will also help you in understanding your partner better.
3. Do all the things you did in the early stage of your relation
After several years, couples get stuck in routine. They stop going out for dates, they stop surprising each other and that is what makes a relationship boring and stagnant. So what you have to do is, if your partner does not take the initiative, you plan a romantic date. We are sure your partner will reciprocate positively. Go out for movies, surprise each other often.
Since your relationship is stagnant right now, we are assuming that there is hardly any sex happening. Now this will just further make you distant. Make love more often and it doesn’t really matter who initiates. Since making love is all about intimacy, it will remind you of all the beautiful things you once loved about your partner’s body.
5. Take up an activity together
It can be anything from a work out, dance classes or even cooking. Just do it together and it will help you relive all those fun moments you both once had.
6. Write notes
This should be a rule that needs to be followed every week. You have to write notes for your partner saying that you loved the most in this week about him/her. It can be about his looks or about the things he did for you. The note can also have your likes, desires and expectations. Every time you feel a little low, all you need is this note to get back all your happiness.
