communication. but its okay. bc we kno not to take it personal anymore. i kno he loves me


Anything intimate


Nothing


Sex is more regimented than spontaneous


Its a new adventure everyday!


Everyday is exciting to me


Well we're both homebodies so it's normal to be relaxed and doing nothing.


Not knowing what we were going to do next. Now, with kids... It's harder


Nothing really!!! I enjoy her all the time!!!


Nothing's become overly boring.


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.

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
