When you notice your relationship losing spice, it signals that this is a time for you to fire it up... if communicating with your loved one seems to be much of an effort, I suggest that you take a long pause and think of tactics to re-energize your love-ppetite now before it's too late!

A word of caution: A relationship that is boring (adj. <dull, unexciting, flat, tedious>) are symptoms that it is about to fail... but it neednt spell the end.. with a lil conscious effort.. we can revive even the most stale partnerships..

Men and women in relationships share proven and effective perks they do to stay in love and keep their partners from looking the other way and possibly straying.

1. Send your woman or man roses on special occasions and when they least expect it... gone are the days that men are the only ones who send their partners flowers.... women have become creative and don't mind sending their men roses too... men might be taken by surprise but they love it.

2. Whisper sweet nothings. Communicate! Saying how much you appreciate your partner, sharing kinky thoughts and complimenting your lover on what she/he does may seem small but these are important ways that keep the romance alive... stop saying them and she/he will think you don't care.

3. Support each other. Partners who appreciate and support each other in their decisions and endeavors are most likely to last the longest.. be it in work or creativity or decision making.. showing support is vitally important.. it shows you are respectful and sincere.. and that goes a long way in improving and keeping a relationship fresh..

4. Don't forget important dates. It may be a birthday, Valentines Day or Christmas... especially never forget your anniversary! Each time, treat your loved one special.. you dont even have to wait for that special date.. occasional cute surprizes are always nice.. and enjoy the responsiveness that follows !!

5. Always give each other a kiss. Actions speak louder than words! A kiss means more than a hug.. so kiss your partner goodbye before you walk out that door... a goodnight kiss is also very loving... and a passionate kiss even says a whole lot more.. especially when you grab her out of the blue and show some of that hot passion!!

6. Tell her you want her. It's not enough to say you love her... sometimes.. words become so ordinary that women gauge from actions and not from what they hear... having a relationship is more than love... in fact, let's be honest and say that it is not enough to love! Pick up your basket and put in not just love but also lust, excitement, and openness... yes, it is important that you make each other crazy... when you lose that interest, your better half would surely notice!

7. Change your routine once in a while. If one becomes predictable, there is nothing to expect. Surprise your partner and she will always remember you... make or do something special... do something unique... go somewhere that you haven't gone before as a couple... if you have children, spend vacations with and without them... if you are tight on your budget, no worries... it doesn't have to be expensive, just exciting and adventurous!

8. Hold hands. Whether be in public or at home watching television, hold hands... nothing beats a silent, warm physical connection.. plan a surprize at home and the minute he walks thru the door.. sit him down.. pour him a drink and get cozy !!.. talk about your day.. fun stuff.. offer him a relaxing body massage.. dim the lights.. and enjoy!!

9. Dress up and date. Pick up those sexy shoes, dress and lingerie when you date.. its all about confidence.. when you feel good about yourself.. you will seem sexier.. responsive and irrisistable !! a man, on the other hand, should not quit courting her or playing romantic even after ten or so years of marriage.

10. Share a secret that only your partner knows. It doesn't matter what it is about... it may be something personal, sensitive or kinky... sharing codes is not only exciting but also builds a strong bond between you two... and he may be surprized to learn a thing or two about what you desire !!

These tips may not sound too easy especially when you are not used to them... but a change in how you treat your mate by applying some of these tips can be a big leap for you.. your relationship does not have to end in a tragedy... take these tips to heart and read up on more... and when you do, be prepared for a racy.. sexy adventure!
