Eleventy Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 One of the problems I've encountered with relationships is that things can become boring for any of the following reasons: 1. You've already gone to every restaurant/cool place in town, and now there's nothing new to go to. Nothing exciting. 2. You've almost run out of things to talk about. 3. Work is grindy. Wake up, go to work, come home, repeat. Boring routine. 4. Maybe sex is a bit dry. 5. Difference of interests perhaps. So I want to make this thread for people to post their thoughts/ideas/opinions. How do you keep your relationship interesting? How do you (or how have you) tried to solve these problems, and were your attempts successful?
Thornton Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 How can anyone run out of things to talk about? There's new stuff in the news every day, new things happen to you every day, you have new thoughts and you see new things... the easiest way to start a conversation is to say "Hey, did you see such-and-such an article in the news?" My bf and I also read together a lot, and there are a huge number of books in the world so we'll always have something new to read. You may have been to the same places again and again, but there's always a new exhibition or show or concert to go to. And as far as sex goes... get a new toy, buy some new lingerie, do it in a new location. Buy a copy of the Kama Sutra and choose a new position to do it in.

You are the 22 year old guy with the 17 year old girlfriend, correct? I just got done posting on your other thread. You are worried about keeping things 'interesting' and you have a 17 year old girlfriend? Sheesh......... I figured something like a new Friendly's ice cream flavor coming out would be interesting enough to a 17 year old. Or buying her a new Jonas Brother's CD..or just talking about the latest gossip or something. Things are tough when you gotta TRY to keep a 17 year old interested.:laugh:
