Valentine’s Day is everything to some couples especially long term ones. If they’ve been dating for 3 or more years it means they really are putting time and effort. However, sometimes couples forget to spice things up and the relationship becomes a bland routine of movie and coffee dates. These are some tips to spark up your relationship.
-
Be spontaneous. How do you expect to keep the spark alive if you’re both stuck in the same rut? Go bowling, try a new restaurant, visit old friends, host a party together, and work out together. Go on an adventure and try new things.
2. Don’t take your partner for granted. He/she will appreciate the small things you do for them. Make them breakfast, give each other massages, pick up an extra cup of coffee, pick them up from work if you can. Always be thankful for the small things because they count a lot. And, most of all show affection.
3. Don’t let long term define your sex life. Keep it fresh and exciting if it seems like a responsibility. That’s a terrible sign. You both need to enjoy each other and making sex a routine is a death sentence to any relationship. Ladies visit Victoria secret or Fredrick’s of Hollywood if you want for that extra ego boost of sexy.

4. Take care of your appearance. Just because you both love each other doesn’t mean you should forget to shower or comb your hair. I’m not saying paying a visit to the salon every two weeks but keep yourself looking pretty. Appearances reflect what you want others to see you as but most importantly how you feel.

5. Sometimes keeping the spark in a relationship means giving each other space. Communicate how you both feel about your relationship. Try doing things alone; your both entitled to some girls/guys night out. You don’t want to make your partner feel like he/she is suffocating in the relationship; it has to be a free flowing relationship with lots of communication.
Spend time with friends.
