How to Fix Your Marriage When It Gets Boring
- 1). Set up a weekly date night or date day. Make this a steadfast rule that one a week, you both have to go and do something together. Hire a baby sitter if you have kids. Take turns every other week with who is responsible for picking out the date. Try this for four months straight each week.
- 2). Pick a romantic location or a spot that might stir up old, happy memories. It doesn't take a great deal of money to visit the beach where you first kissed, or have a glass of wine where you were proposed to.
- 3). Plan on a vacation for just the two of you. Ask family members or friends if they can babysit for a weekend, or even a week. Take a romantic holiday where the only thing you have to do is spend time together. Most often, the Caribbean has resorts that offer tandem massages, sailing trips or waterfall tours that can be very romantic.
- 4). Create a scrapbook together to remember all the great highlights of your marriage including first dates, your childs' birth and vacations taken. Remembering all these great memories may spark some fresh passion into your marraige.
- 5). Create a romantic mood by surprising your husband or wife with a romantic dinner at home. Lower the lights, light some candles and have a private chef cook the two of you a romantic meal at home. Private chefs can cost about $200 to $400 per night including the cost of food.
