I used to play video games now for some reason I really don't know ... I need to think about that. For her it's easy - I just take the kids somewhere/anywhere for the day and leave her alone.
The only thing that really relaxes me, close my eyes, put my "ecouteurs" and talk to her during hours and hours.
Use the hot tub... my girl likes to relax with Tequila...
And sky juice!

Pour a large drink. Pour him a large gine and tonic!
Watch tv. Re assure her of my endless love.
I take a shower and lay down. I love when my boyfriend plays with me hair....very relaxing. And as for him, It's very hard to relax him. He's always going
A nice bubble bath is very soothing these days.. Helps to wind down
I just want to lay on the couch and be in a daze.
My partner does not help me relax b/c as soon as I zone out or veg he thinks I am upset or mad. I just need to veg.

Hot tub. Read, curl up with my head in his lap. To help him I rub his back, arms, legs....
Listen to music and eventually knock out
When I need to relax I usually prefer to be alone so I can just think or evaluate the day, week, month, yr or yrs. I try to help him relax by accommodating him in any way he needs. Doing everything so that there is nothing left for him to do takes a huge load off--for him.
Just stay in the bed and listen to music or hug my hubby ...
For him is boobs in the face lol mine is relaxing in a bath
My gf says smoke for her and for me 2 relax music and popping my pimples then a hot bubble bath
I relax by watch good movies, UFC, having a few beers, playing a video game, playing with my dog and by hanging out with her. I am not always so good at helping her to relax, but I try to do relaxing things with her. Watch shows and movies, do trivia, go out to dinner or the movies. We go to the dog park as a relaxation spot. She isn't a fan of massages, so that never really works out
