5 Tips to Keep a Marriage Exciting |
The buildup to the wedding is exciting; making arrangements and laying out a plan for your future lives together. But after the honeymoon ends, life begins. And while you may have the most beautiful marriage, even the most devoted couple is sure to find the married lifestyle to be at times, well, let's say, less than exciting. I mean, let's face it, you love the other person, but spending all day with the same individual makes for a lot of routine activities, that if you are not careful, can drag on your relationship and make you both feel unsatisfied with what is otherwise a very loving relationship.
As a result, it is vital that couples not simply sit back in the belief that a marriage will remain exciting merely on its momentum. Instead, spouses must take some basic steps to infuse their relationships with a bit of excitement.
1. Have Independent Interests
Having independent interests is not a sign of a weak marriage, as some newlyweds believe, but rather a sign of its strength. You cannot have anything interesting to say if you spend every waking moment doing and experiencing the same things. Having separate interests means that you have something unique to bring to conversations, ensuring that you both always have something interesting, and yes, exciting, to say to one another.
