Its a new adventure everyday!
Anything intimate
Nothing's become overly boring.
Well we're both homebodies so it's normal to be relaxed and doing nothing.
Nothing really!!! I enjoy her all the time!!!
Everyday is exciting to me
Definitely not humdrum and normal. Each day presents novelty of some kind, mostly because my partner's nature is of nuance. I would say that, if anything has changed, it's the current tension around keeping a healthy routine, where in the early dating period, I might have been able to let that go to be available, present, etc. I observe myself going into co-dependent roles, something i want to work on to keep relationship as i every day was a date.
I don't think that there's anything dull. Our relationship is full of tones, not just one. I think my soon to be husband is open to what life is rather than trying to make it and fighting it to what he thinks is supposed to be.
There are things that are now normal to out relationship that used to be super mega ultra exciting like when I knew he was coming over to my apartment. But there are things that are still the same like when I get a loving or sexy text from him. I still get butterflies. :) <3

Normal is great !
Nothing
Everything is exciting
My son makes it hard for us to have exciting and since we never get time together it seems like everything is just blah and normal. I'd love to have our ability to just go out whenever to do whatever. However, I wouldn't miss a moment with our son either. Our son is my life right now. Once our little family is able to live together again, hopefully excitement comes back.
If we had our own place we can have themed nights and have a ball.
