A relationship is a two way process where two individuals symbiotically form one entity. Every relationship in its early phases is like a dream come true where everything seems magically beautiful. It is only when couples walk the long road of life together when the cracks and the faults begin to sink in. Boredom is one of the most common problems which are experienced by couples who have been in a relationship for long time. Boredom is a couple’s nightmare. Many people dread to think what would be the consequences if their relationship becomes monotonous and they fail to quench their partner’s thirst for excitement.

The problem of every long time couple is that their prime focus is meeting the challenges of daily life, irrespective of whether it is work or home. They are so caught up with their everyday routine that they forget the role that romance played in their lives at one point of time. Thus, degeneration occurs in the relationship and the spark which was there initially begins to disappear. This is where boredom and monotony creep in even in the most perfect and well-balanced relationships. However, every mature and responsible couple would know that a relationship is not for one alone. Contributions have to be made and efforts have to be taken from both ends for it to work. If one individual always takes the initiative to make things special, over a period of time, he may feel ignored and unwanted. A relationship doesn’t remain what it is when both sides don’t strive to make it work.

To get the romance back, the first thing that has to be changed is the mindset. Many couples work as a team to meet the challenges of everyday life. If the same attitude is applied to other places, it would be a special realization for both the individuals. The keyword is to be together at all possible opportunities. The first and the most important step is to sit down with your partner and think of those areas wherein both of you have common interests. Sometimes, doing something that your partner is very passionate about can prove to be fruitful too. For instance, if you do not know dancing and your partner on the other hand simply loves it, taking dancing lessons would not only please your partner but the activity would allow you to come closer to each other. Common hobbies help people enjoy their interests and give an excuse to a couple to come closer as they realize that they can not only work but also enjoy as a team

People place the blame on time for not being able to give their relationship top priority. But when there is time in your hands, it should not be wasted. Even a weekend could be converted into a memorable experience by giving the television a miss and heading out for a short vacation. A vacation should not necessarily be some place expensive. It is simply a get away from the normal routine life where a couple can spend some quality time together.

Some of these things may sound just too simple and not convincing. But, it would be good to remember that it is these small things in life that make some of the most savored memories. A relationship does not require great sacrifices to stay thick, instead small but constant contributions from both the individuals would do just enough to make sure they walk the path of life together, discovering new aspects about themselves and falling more in love with each other with every passing moment.
