Be Unpredictable

November 27, 2013

Does boredom kill relationships? Yes, it can! While routine might bring order and stability to life, it is true that it can also engender boredom. So, here are four rut-busters that can add some spice and creativity to your marriage relationship.

• Buy a small gift on a “No Special Occasion” day. It’s not a birthday, anniversary or Valentine ’s Day gift. Surprise your partner and say: “I was thinking about you today and got you a little something…”

• Write a note and leave it out for your unsuspecting spouse to read and cherish. Say some of those things you should say more often like “I love you, I appreciate you…”

• Do something you never do! Cook a meal, clean the bathrooms, buy tickets to an event or concert they’d like, have a surprise date, or even give a massage.

• Spice up Sex! Get on some crazy underwear, go to bed naked, have sex on the living room floor, use body oil, or add some candles to the bedroom... Use your imagination!

ACTION   Pick one thing on this list and do it this week. Remember to pick something that is “unpredictable” and unforgettable! Create a memorable moment.
