FOR COUPLES ONLY
8 Creative ways to revive a relationship...

  1. Surprise Day!
    Each partner picks only one "Surprise Day" of the week to be nice/kind to partner all day. At the end of the week, partners guess which was the other's "Surprise Day."

  2. Ten Minute Fix:
    Partners each spend five minutes, telling the other what First Attracted you to them.

    Listening Partner: Totally opens to accept compliments and just listens.

    Complimenting Partner: Describe in detail partner's physical traits, personality, behaviors, emotions, values, character, anything, especially small things that initially attracted them, in a totally positive way. (you can go over time on this one.) Switch Roles.

  3. Adventure Path:
    Each Partner picks one adventurous activity, something they have never done but would like to do , and the other partner opens himself/herself to go along in the spirit of adventure. Alternate weekends.

  4. Essence of Love:
    Partners spend 5 minutes of total silence looking into each others eyes/face while holding hands, and seeing the loving/positive/true nature of the partner. Discuss afterwards.

  5. Completion/Circle:
    Each partner writes a one page letter to the other stating to the other what they have learned from the other and what they have yet to learn.

  6. Why?:
    Each partner asks themselves: "Why am I with this person?" "What positives does this person bring to my life?" "How do they balance me?" Keep in positive vein, write out answers, share answers. 5 - 10 minutes each.

  7. Chuckling:
    1. Each partner makes a list of 10 jokes.
    2. One partner places their head on the other's stomach (clothed or unclothed) and tells their jokes.
    3. Rotate positions. (Don't overlook the benefits of good, hearty laughter.)

  8. Massage Therapy
    Start slow. One partner gives the other a 5 minute massage, taking requests and suggestions. Alternate roles and nights.

  9. Make up your own!
    Be creative, open, adventurous.
