Now, you have 52 suggestions for things to do with your partner for every week of the year, divided by season.
Indeed, you donít have to follow my directions. Feel free to add your own or to repeat your favourites as often as you’d like.
The primary concern isn’t to perceive how unusual you can get. The thought is to keep your relationship alive by setting aside a few minutes for a need. Significantly, you discover activities as a team that you can both appreciate.
If you have various interests, at that point, you can enter this with the soul of alternating and each consenting to joyfully take an interest in the action picked by the one whose turn it is that week.
Suppose you prioritise your relationship and allocate time each week to rejuvenate the feelings that attracted you first. In that case, you stand a good chance of staying together for the long haul.
You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. What is stopping you? Start today.
