Romance in the twenty-first century

Why are many relationships boring? Not because the love itself is missing, but because there is no romance and passion anymore. These are two very important ingredients for a good and long-lasting relationship. A good relationship won’t be automatic and just takes time. And that’s just the thing we consider being short of in the twenty-first century.
Usually we are too busy with ourselves, constantly available on Twitter and Facebook and only just want to do nice things which are super cool. Preferably every day! Because telling your friends that you have been hanging out on the sofa with your beloved at night is not cool at all.
Though this can be a very good thing for your relationship! A good conversation or a heavenly lovemaking has, in many cases, a much more positive effect on a relationship than any super cool or exciting outing whatsoever. And so there are many more numerous simple and very cheap ideas which will have a positive effect on your relationship.
Simply ideas which might seem to be old fashioned and boring at first sight. But look a bit further and you will find out that romance in the twenty-first century is about old fashioned values with a modern twist. Timeless human values of love, attention and respect for each other.
Often romance is more nearby than many think and is often hidden in the daily (small) things. The only thing you need to do is watch carefully whether you can discover it. That will be the big challenge itself for beloved ones in the twenty-first century.
But where should you look?
First go and look for some more time together. Because time is scarce for most people in the twenty-first century. Work, children, hobbies, social life and friends secretly swallow a lot of time. The result is that in the evening you sink down in the sofa tired and exhausted, without any form of attention for each other or activity together whatsoever.
This often results in a grumbling and dissatisfied partner. Of course a little grumbling doesn’t mind. Every good relationship has got its hassles now and then. Nothing wrong with that, as long as you know when to stop! By relieving your heart or clearing out to your partner that you disagree with something you feel relieved and you indicate where your boundary lies. Avoid grumbling and go looking for some (additional) time that you and your partner share. Probably cost you anything, and this extra time will have a very positive effect on your relationship.
How about a Candlelight at McDonald’s, visit a wellness centre, a lunch date with your partner or a foam bath for two. Simple but fun activities for you and your partner to engage in, so you can spend some quality time.
