Any time is a good time for a drive.


Long drives in the country are amazing and a great way for couples to communicate. Don't have a specific place picked out just get out and drive. If you are nervous about getting lost then take your GPS. Don't use the GPS unit until ready to go home. Fill your tank up and just head out making turns and looking for interesting things to do or see. Find a place to pull off and talk or take in some beautiful scenery while holding each other in your arms. Some of the most amazing times you will ever have are simply anyplace the two of you can be alone. So start seeking out these places on these wonderful drives.

There are no more roles in a relationship.


If you haven't figured it out yet they year is 2010. We are not stuck in the 1950's, so if you think a certain gender should have a specific role in your relationship you need to wake up. Relationships are partnerships now a days long gone are the bread winner days where the man goes out and brings home the money and the woman stays home to raise the kids. There is nothing wrong with a stay at home mom but nowadays it could be a stay at home dad. Most relationships see both partners have to enter the work force so you can forget about one partner being responsible for all the household duties. Relationships today have to be a partnership, all aspects have to be split to make it work. With both partners out of the house working 40 or more hours you cannot expect one partner alone to take care of all the chores. You have to see what works best for the two of you in this manner. Maybe you set specific chores like one person cooks while the other does the dishes or you can rotate chores so you both have a feel for them. Use your communication skills and work together to keep your house in top shape as well as your relationship.

Romantic Ornaments.


One of the nicest things you can give your lover each year is a wonderful ornament that means something. You can select a specific thing like snowmen or angels and every year make this the first present you give them each year. Picture ornaments are a great ideas if you have children then way you can see how much they have grown each year. Another great idea is to find ornaments that are attached to a memory. Say for instance this summer you took a wonderful trip to Hawaii then a palm tree ornament might make a lasting memento of your trip. Another great thing to celebrate is having a baby, so mom or dad to be ornaments will always remind you of the year of pregnancy. No matte what type of ornament you are looking for today with the internet you are bound to find what you are looking for.

Get your lists ready.


A good thing to do for each other at this time of year is to make a christmas list for each other. I am not talking about a list of specific things that you want but a list of several things you would like to do in your future. Things you would like to do around the holidays or traditions you would like to start. Maybe you would love to take a trip on day on Christmas to the Mexico or maybe you would love to start collecting special holiday ornaments. Jot down all the little things you think would make the holidays special, maybe watching a specific movie each year around the holidays or making a certain kind of cookie only at this time of year. Make sure you can carry any traditions into the future for when you have children or your partner becomes your spouse. This is a way to kinda play house if your not already married or in a serious relationship. It might feel funny but you might be amazed somewhere down the road when you partner remembers something you said on that day and presents you with tickets to your dream destination or brings home a special ornament for you Christmas tree you have only dreamt about. Dreaming is a large part of your relationship as long as you do it together.
