Popsicle Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 What are ways to deal with boredom that sets in after a long time of marriage? Everything else is fine, just bored and routine. Do you just ignore it and suck it up/pretend it doesn't exist? What if your spouse doesn't want to do anything different? What do you do?
d0nnivain Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Shake things up. Go on a date. Go on vacation. Play tourist in your home town. Have sex in the guest room. Do anything that is outside of your routine. 3

No Limit Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Judging from your threads you had an affair. Well, without IC/MC your marriage doesn't really stand a chance. But I guess your partner doesn't know so explaining him why you need MC might cause trouble.

Boredom in a relationship is a good thing. Means there is no drama. Enjoy it and enjoy mental stability.

Err....no you do not because it is inevitable and you will eventually breakup. Have you brought it to the attention of the other person yet? If you have and they are not willing to talk about it / think they are not to blame, then something has to give. There are many relationships out there where one person lives in denial and think they are NOT the problem, and that the other person is. Did you guys have things that you enjoyed doing in the early days of dating, or was it just based on infatuation / sex ?
spanishchick00 Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 I'm glad married people get bored of each other at some point. I can't stand it when they brag about how great married life is.

Ahahahaha....it's only the delusional ones that portray a facade that everything is honky dory in the relationship (either because it's still young) i.e. that they don't fight / argue. Some also have the problem of recognizing cracks because how else do you explain marriages or LTR that were 15+ yrs in the making and then collapsed? It takes two to get into a relationship, it also takes two to screw it up...period.

Sometimes life is boring, and that's a good thing. Take up a hobby and stop blaming your boredom on your partner or your marriage. Boring people get bored. 1
