How to Have an Exciting Relationship

Relationships should be fun, romantic and exciting. When two people meet and discover a mutual attraction between them, they spend time together in order to learn more about each other. These beginning times are typically adventurous, filled with butterflies in the stomach and giddy laughter. Such excitement should last beyond the initial stages into the depths of the relationship.

1. Plan date nights. Whether you are living together or not, plan special nights for the two of you to go out to your favorite restaurant or to find a new favorite. Whether you go out on the same night every week or maybe only twice a month, it is important to continue making time for special nights out together.
2. Travel together. At least once a year, plan some time to get away together. Whether it is for a weekend, a week, or even longer, traveling will always bring excitement to a relationship. It also gives something for the two of you to look forward to throughout the year.
3. Cook for each other. Food is always a fantastic reason for spending time together, and showing your partner that you care about him through the time you spend cooking will make him feel very special.
4. Surprise each other with small gifts. Whether you buy gifts for each other or make them, your partner will be thrilled to know that you are thinking about her and that you want to make her happy with a gift that you know she will enjoy.
5. Make a coupon book for your partner. Include any coupon you think your partner will want--something sexy, something fun, a promise to do his least favorite chores. He can use these coupons at any time and will be thankful for every opportunity he has to do so.
6. Do something out of the ordinary together. Climb a tree in the middle of the night and spend hours talking while sitting in its branches. Go swimming in a river in the middle of the fall. Spend the night on a flat roof with lots of comfortable blankets to keep you warm.
7. Leave notes in secret places around the house where you know your partner will find them. Say good morning with a note on the coffee pot. Tell her you will miss her during the day while you are both at work by leaving a note on her car. Leave a joke that only the two of you will understand in her wallet or bag. These notes will most likely turn into a lovely part of the day that both of you will look forward to.
