Advice on How to save your marriage and keep your relationship strong

In any relationship it takes work and effort. Friendships, Marriages, Dating or just casual get-togethers can go in many directions and can build and grow depending on how much time, effort and willingness on both parties to make it worthwhile.

To me a great relationship is one that is interesting, good conversation, common interests and plenty of room for trying new things and being spontaneous. No body likes to get into a rut. Doing things the way you have always done them will lead to the same old results.

When two people first meet, either as friends, acquaintances, or lovers its always fresh, new, exciting and something to look forward to, simply because its not predictable and each person is learning about the other person.

Role play, now this is something that can really bring out a side of your partner that you never knew about. Call them at home or work and tell them to meet you somewhere like a bar, hotel, park, movie theatre, coffee house, parking lot, grocery store, gas station, bowling alley, you get the idea.

Next when they arrive at the location have some one other than yourself deliver them a note.... in the note have specific instructions about what character you want them to portray when they meet ( basically they need to be someone or something other than what they have been so far) for example if they are a passive type personality, tell them to be aggressive and vice versa.

Now that both of you have assumed your alter ego roles, go somewhere and play it out. Say if you decide to have your mate meet you at a public place, one of you shows up first then the other arrives later approaching as if a stranger and see how interesting it gets when the dialogue is changed.
