Ohio14inter Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 As some already know, I've been with a woman for over 2 years. We go to the same college together so we're used to seeing each other frequently. Over the Summer we are unable to see eachother very often and go about our relationship by means of texting/calls. She's always working 8-12 hours a day and the only time we have to talk is nights when she is dead tired. When we can see eachother however, we have a great time because our chemistry is so amazing. What is the best way to keep things interesting in a relationship that has seen many of the same things before? Just need some tips for keeping the flame burning! Thanks!
mortensorchid Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Have to be creative. It's not enough to just call and say "I miss you" or something. Send little tokens here and there for whatever occasion. Soon she'll get into it as well and you'll have something just between the two of you.
Trialbyfire Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Weekend getaways, surprise vacations, romantic dates, take/join a mutually enjoyable creative/athletic course/class/team together, keep shaking up your sex life with the element of the unexpected, read aloud to each other on a rainy night (something funny or romantic, whatever you can both enjoy), pamper each other, make love outside the bedroom without sex, oh man, I could go on and on!!
HelloHello Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I commend you for trying! Most men never put in the effort to find out how to keep things fresh in a relationship. Trialbyfire said some amazing things and is right on the nose. I will add to it. You have to continue to be the most attractive man that you can be. Read books that help you continue to be an outstanding man. I recommend the book The Way Of The Superior Man. Its awesome. By continuing to improve yourself mentally and physically, you give you loved one a beautiful present, but more importantly, you give yourself a gift. What college do you guys go to?

Umm... huh... I think I just got inappropriately excited for the work environment. Let me know if that second date with that stud of yours doesn't work out

Author Ohio14inter Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 I commend you for trying! Most men never put in the effort to find out how to keep things fresh in a relationship. Yeah thanks, thats the problem; I feel like I'm the only one really putting forth the effort. I know she loves me though and she is just really stressed working non stop so I try not to sound needy haha, but it's still tough sometimes. I really love her and couldn't see myself being with anyone else. I've always looked for ways to improve my relationships. I'm not the typical 'get drunk and hook up with whoever' type of college guy haha. But yeah the problem is like I said, she rarely has time to do anything so that's why it's hard...
Author Ohio14inter Posted July 10, 2008 Author Posted July 10, 2008 See other people! boo to that lol
Author Ohio14inter Posted July 11, 2008 Author Posted July 11, 2008 okay so i need some input...i just talked to her on the phone and told her how i hate not being able to talk to her or see her, and i hate how it bothers me and not her..she seemed frustrated that I kept going on and on about missing her (my stupid mouth)....and i asked her why it doesn't really bother her and she said "Because I know you're still there." Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
