what do you do to refresh relationship?

I have always done eveything I can think of to keep my marriage spicy. We have been together for 15 years now and married for 12 of those. I have made candlelight dinners, made candlelight in our bathroom for our baths, changed things up in the bedroom, changed things up in our routine in our lives, changed the way I normally dress, etcetera. I am the only one in my raltionship who tries to keep things spiced up. My husband isn't into being truly romantic but he loves the ideas I come up with.

I always walked over and kissed him or I would do some crazy thing that would make him laugh and I pulled that all the time I tried never to be dull. always do the unexpexted they love it or he did we lasted 42 1/2 years till he passed away

Me and my husband usally take some time for ourselves once or twice a year we go away for a week or a weekend and just spend time with each other no kids, no work we leave all the stress at home last summer we went to camping for a week went hiking and enjoyed sight seeing you still have to leave time for each other no matter what you hae going on in your life or you will lose each other

Actually I think that in this situation I would try to think of something that I know the other person really wants or likes and see to it that they get it from me in a very special and memorable manner. This doesn't have to be material or expensive. As a matter of fact it might not cost anything as it could be something as simple as helping them realize the fulfillment of a favorite fantasy. Also remember that communications are the most important aspect of a relationship so try to open up and talk with them about something new and different that either you or they have think about but seldom if ever talk about. This can really take the bore out of things and open the door to more intimate and exciting things to come. Good luck!!!!

i think that seing the same person all the time,not meeting anyone else for a long time can indeed bring boredom and routine into a couple's life.i think that one of the best way to keep the relationship strong is to not see each other from time to time.i mean i live with my bf in england and he goes back to his family every now and then for a few weeks sometimes and when he comes back we're so glad to see each other.one time he went for 3 months and did an internship abroad.it's was hard at the beginning.but in the end it was so cool.we talked all the time on the fone,he wrote romantic letters and when he came back it was like i was in a new relationship...
