One of the great things about a new relationship is all of the “firsts” you have together. You never forget where you first met; the first place you went on a date, the first time you took a long drive in the middle of the night or how you felt the first time you kissed. The relationship was and still is an adventure, and as you are in the middle of it; remember the times when you felt excited and alive and look forward to more.
If you want to rekindle your relationship, and fall in love with your partner all over again, you have to share new and fun experiences. You can train for and run a marathon together or go skydiving. You can also go on a road trip or travel to another country. You will surely have a good time together and you will definitely enjoy each other’s company. Plus, when you get home, there is something new to talk about. You will surely share a few laughs with your partner when you recall these experiences.
Go out there and create new firsts, step out of your comfort zone. It might be scary or difficult at first, but who better to try new things with than your significant other? Try a new type of cuisine that has always interested you but you were always too cautious to try. Search for the best ice cream in your town and the surrounding area. Make it as random or fun as the two of you want. Go to a concert that one or both of you have always wanted to see. Does one of you like to read? Get out and go to the local bookstore or get out and discover a new favorite family fun establishment. Research the natural landmarks in your area and explore some new places. Find new favorites that you will want to revisit again. It will make for a great story and a fun weekend.
You don't need to recreate the exact mood or feeling from the beginning of your relationship. That might only add to the frustration that you and your partner are dealing with. What you want to recall are the feelings of closeness or how you looked forward to that time together. You should be excited to go off and discover new things in the world while learning things about each other at the same time. This is the perfect time to find new interests and attributes that can make you more alluring to your partner. If they look forward to trying new things with you, how can you not be excited and more appreciative to be around them?
