The standards are drastically low now. Many just want a relationship without pain and they’re happy but that’s not what a successful relationship is all about. A successful relationship is the presence of joy; in other words, one you can have fun, a fun relationship. You shouldn’t work so hard on making the relationship work that you neglect your hopes, dreams, play and fun!!!.
Below are three steps you can work on to have a fun relationship.
1. Joy Comes First
Do you remember why you got into a relationship with this person originally? It was most likely because they gave you joy and you wanted to enjoy that with them. You felt a connection. For some it’s the first meeting, for others, the first kiss. One day, one moment, everything just clicked and the vibe was good.
That feeling back then when you used to be so excited anticipating the next time you’d both get together. That’s the feeling you need to get back!
In order to put joy first in your relationship, you’ll have to find a way of saying no to a few other things during the day. By doing this, you’ll have more energy and time to share tales and exciting activities with your partner.
Step 2: Now is the time for fun.
We have a lot of stressful activities to do each day. Because of this, we could be doing the most random things and be imagining going on adventures to escape it all. An error that you need to correct in your relationship is waiting for vacations or weekends to have fun. Make use of your imagination and find ways to make normal activities interesting and fun. The following are some tips to add fun to your days.
• Send a flirty emoji in the middle of a workday
• If you must talk about your budget, do it at your favorite brunch place
• Run errands together instead of dividing the chores.
These are sure you get you on your way to having the fun relationship you desire.
Step 3: Create a plan
In order to have a fun relationship, you’ll need to make plans, like dinner reservations, planning vacations, trips, preparing for who will take cafes of the kids and making time.
Good news is that the planning is not as stressful as it looks. Once you sit down to do it and think of the rewards you’ll enjoy, it becomes a breeze.
Starting out with these requires a little work but as time goes on, you’ll be able to have a fun relationship effortlessly like in the early stages of courting.
