Ok ladies, this post one is for us.
I want to talk about a way to keep your relationship from getting stale, routine, or just downright uninteresting.
No, this isn’t an article about spicing up things in the bedroom.
I’m bored with my relationship.
I was bored with my relationship last year, and the year before, too. Chances are, I’ll be bored with my relationship again this summer. Yet the relationship persists. In fact, in a few short weeks it will be stronger than ever.
I intend for it to last the rest of my, or her, life.

Easy to say, challenging to do.
I’ve been having a few challenges in the argument area lately myself and when I read the quote above, it made sense and gave me a few more thoughts on what I should be doing.
When it comes to improvements in our relationships, it’s always a good idea to have a few reminders. Reminders to keep us on track and maybe a few we’ve either forgotten about or even hadn’t thought about before. That’s what life is all about - improvement and moving forward.
So today’s post is a few areas I’ve collected and actually reminding myself about so I’m going to share those with you. I hope you’ll get something from mine.
I’ve written times that the cardinal ‘rule of thumb’ in any relationship is transparency of yourself with your partner or spouse. And it’s also an easy one to let slip, in difficult times too. I know I speak of it often and I also know I fail in walking the talk, at times. Hey, I’m human, OK?

I just watched an episode of Two and a Half Men which I, strangely, find extremely amusing.
Amusement in the timing as well as the interesting, almost true to life goings-on between Allen and Charlie. I see the subtle parallels between the two of them within us all.
The good guy, bad guy scenario. The ‘I want to be a playboy’ versus ‘I’m a wonderful and stable companion’.
Those voices in our head continually chattering on about what to do and what not to do. Should I do this or am I expected to do that and, for that matter, does that bode well with me.
Do I rush headlong into a relationship with this person or is there something I should be concerned about that I’ll eventually regret?
