Do a Buddy Challenge with your partner!



Buddy Challenges are a fast growing part of our culture, that promote fun and excitement rather then sitting around being bored. What better way to tell you partner that you care about them then to ask them to get in on one of these with you and your other friends. One thing that usually happens in a relationship is that we start separating our friends from out partner. We have time for our friends and then we have time for our partner. When what we need to do is find a common time for both. Just make sure to find alone time for you and your partner but include them in with all your other dealings and they will not only create some bonds with your friends but get closer to you in the process.

Buddy Challenge can be found on Amazon, for the kindle and any kindle application for your computer or device. The software for you device is free so that is awesome. The challenges are cheap but worth their weight in gold. Click the title of this post here here to get the newest buddy challenge.

Make the most of your time apart to make your time together enjoyable.


When you are in love and apart thing don't seem to go right. However, you should use this time to enjoy the things you normally did before you were in a relationship. No I don't mean go out looking for dates. I mean hang with your buddies or perform an activity or hobby that you have fun doing. By doing this you take your mind off your partner and it gives you space to breath and be an individual. This way when the two of you meet up again the electricity will create those sparks that you both love between the two of you. Relationships are tricky and finding just the right amount of time to be together is a trial and error process. Give yourself room to grow and flourish and your partner will desire you more. Just make sure you don't over due it, not having time for your relationship is just as bad as never being apart. A happy relationship has a great balance of the two. With that balance you also get to very happy people in a relationship.

Your partners Birthday take it seriously.


As we age we don't want to celebrate another year of getting older. However, there is that little kid in all of us that enjoys being the center of attention and getting things to make us feel special. You can do this for your partner, even if you don't have much cash. Things you can do without much money is number one throw them a party. Invite all their family and friends and just let them enjoy the company of the people that mean the most to them. You can also make their favorite dinner, or breakfast to help them see how special you think they are. The important thing here is to go out of your way a little to show your love. Flowers fade, presents get old but the memories you can build in this manner last a lifetime. Take this from me never let an opportunity pass to celebrate your love for one another. You never know when it could be the last time to celebrate or when it just might brighten your partners life up a little.

Geodating


Want to impress you love with a surprise date? Based on the same idea as geocaching we have made geodating. This is where you enter the coordinates of the place you are wishing to take your partner on a date into their GPS unit. You could also text or email them the coordinates if you can't get hold of their GPS unit. Once you give them the coordinates all you have to do is sit back and wait for that special someone to figure out where they are going and arrive to meet you. You can pick things like restaurants, landmarks or even just a specific area outdoors such as a place to have a picnic. It makes your date seem like a treasure hunt and will build excitement if you decide to go to someplace neither of you has been before. Make sure both of you have cell phones in case something goes wrong or the person needs assistance once they reach the destination. Take turns picking places to have your dates. This activity, can make every date seem like the first date over and over again.

Join a League!


Relationships are funny things especially at the start. You have to feel your way around to see when and where to take big steps. Things like moving in together or purchasing large items are huge steps as far as relationships go. Maybe you aren't ready for that type of big step yet, what can you do to make a commetment but not dive head first into this realtionship. My suggestion is to join some sort of league. Be it bowling, gold, darts, softball, etc. there are endless possibilities. Now you might wonder why this is reat for you relationship, and the reason is that it shows you are looking at your relationship as a continueing thing. You are showing that you are looking towards the future with this person, without making a hard to reverse step. If things don't work out it is usually not that difficult to get out of one of these leagues. Another great benifit to joining leagues for a couple is you meet other out going couples that you might be able to become friends with. Couples that become friends are a great addition to your relationship as you will have others to enjoy things like cookouts, parties or eveneings out with. The friends you bring into your relationship at the start are either his or hers, but these new friends are "OUR" friends and are not partial to either of you. This can be a big help if you might have troubles down the line. Look through your local paper and the next time you see an advertisement asking for league members ask your partner if they would like to join, it might just be great for your relationship.

Hanging out at home!


During this time of economic turmoil, more and more people are having to rethink what they do for dates and recreation. Remember when you were teenagers and you would just hang out at someones house! You would pick someone who's parents weren't home and just lay around watching television and acting stupid. Well why not bring back the feeling. You can save a lot of money by doing this. You could rent some movies, purchase some snacks and bring home some booze. All of the things you might do on a night out. Invite some friends over and have a little movie party or play a board game together. Just spend the evening hanging out having a few drinks and getting into some great conversations.


Maybe you want the evening to just be the two of you. Again just like when you were teenagers you can spend the night making out or watching a movie, or both. I love just sitting and debating things with my partner. I feel it brings us closer even if we disagree on things. Now think of all the money you will be saving and you still get all the things you would on a date. Good conversation, fun, entertainment, and maybe even sex, for a fraction of the cost of the traditional date.

Football season is here!


Okay it is now officially football season. High school teams have started to play and colleges, too. The NFL is about to kick off. As a couple if you both enjoy the football atmosphere then you need to find a game you can tailgate at. Tailgating is a great way to spend time with your friends and also your partner. Everyone is rooting for the same team and you can find some great eats and drinks. Most people don't consider this a great time for couples. It can be if you don't let the game and your friends get your carried away. Always remember to include your partner in the antics you are going to do while you tailgate. If you are going to play corn hole then ask your partner to play with you. Don't go run off with your buddies and forget who you came with. If your partner is new to your group of friends don't leave him/her alone to fend for themselves, stick with them and you will have a much better time. Once they get comfortable and meet some of the others you can bet they will look forward to tailgating as much as everyone else. Always remember that your relationship comes first, so think about your actions before you strip down and paint your whole body.

The Double Date


Stop for a moment. I already hear you sighing, "Not a double date". I know all the feelings you’re going through. Maybe you can't stand her friends and she wants to strangle yours, and you don't want to waste an evening listening to either one of them. You don't want to be stuck without transportation, and what if you can't agree on anything to do. Well stop whining. First of all, both of you need your friends. This is very true, and maybe they won't make the best double date candidates. It is time to find some friends that fit with your relationship. Couples that have another couple that they are close to can make a special bond that might last a lifetime. Look around there might be a couple closer then you think that you would enjoy spending time with. Look for common interests. If you have children, look for parents of your children’s friends. They most likely will be close to your age, and obviously, if they take interest in their children, you will end up at a lot of the same functions.


When you find a couple that seems to fit the bill, ask them to do something in a group setting such as having a BBQ or joining you at a friend’s party. That way you can see if you get along outside of you other realms. Find something you can pair off with them and do. At a BBQ you might play ladder ball or horse shoes with the other couple to see how they interact with you. After spending some time with them get with your partner and see what she/he thinks about them. If both of you don't agree, then start over again looking for another couple to hang with. If you both seem to like spending some time with them then maybe it is time to see if they would like to go to dinner with you or to a local bar or coffee house. Find out about each other and what your likes and dislikes are. This will help you find something else you can do together sometime.


Having another couple you can count on is a big plus. If you get to know each other well, you could even help each other out in other ways - such as, taking turns watching the kids so you can have a night out. Maybe sometime you would need their help in an emergency situation. If you don't have any family around, they could keep an eye on your house while you were on vacation. Yes, the double date is a pain sometimes, but sometimes it can lead to a great relationship that will last a lifetime.


There are some web sites out now that match couples up to do things just like the dating sites, make sure you are extra careful if you want to use one. Make sure that everyone knows what you are expecting. You don't want to be sitting with a couple of swingers asking when you are going to swap unless you’re into that. If you have a couple that you are already friends with, you are lucky because they can be a great source of help no matter what you need them for. It's like having extra family around.
