52 great ideas to do with your lover that don't cost anything.

One of the things that works to keep relationships alive is spending quality time with each other. In this day of the information age, it is becoming increasingly difficult to carve out the necessary time to nurture our relationships. What with long work hours, helping kids with their homework, transporting them around to their extracurricular activities, getting dinner, cleaning up and going through the bedtime routine, what time is left?
Unless you orchestrate the time for your relationship, other less important things will crowd in and take what precious little time you do have. Pick a night that will be "date night" with your partner and make a game out of being as creative as you can be. Try to see how many things you can do without spending money.
To get you started, I've come up with some suggestions to help you for the next year. What follows are 52 ideas for how to spend creative time together without spending money. Feel free to add or modify any of the items on the list to suit your particular relationship and circumstances.
WINTER
1. Take a drive to look at the Christmas decorations.
2. Play cards---perhaps strip poker.

32. Lie on a blanket outside and watch the clouds or stars.
33. Go on a picnic.
34. Watch a fireworks display.

36. Sit by the water somewhere.
37. Do a prolonged strip tease for each other.
38. Have a water balloon fight.
39. Sit outside and read poetry to each other.

43. Call or write to someone you haven't had contact with in a while.
44. Cook something together.
45. Spend an evening just talking with each other. Talk about the things you have done, plans you have for the future, important people in your lives or current events.
46. Take a bubble bath together.
47. Go to a free movie or museum.
48. Take a drive and find the potential in old houses and their properties.
49. Create an imaginary story together---either orally or in written form.
50. Take turns being each other's genie in a bottle by fulfilling your partner's every wish and fantasy.
51. Play in the fallen leaves.
52. Create an exciting scavenger hunt that ends in your bed.
Now you have 52 suggestions for things to do with your partner for every week of the year divided by season. Certainly you don't have to follow my suggestions. Feel free to add your own or to repeat your favorites as often as you'd like.
The main point is not to see how kinky you can get. The idea is to keep your relationship alive by making time together a priority. It is important that you find things to do as a couple that you can both enjoy. If you have vastly different interests then you can enter this with the spirit of taking turns and each agree to happily participate in the activity chosen by the one whose turn it is that week.
As long as you make a habit of making your relationship a priority and allocating time each week for rejuvenation of the feelings that attracted you in the first place, then you stand a good chance of staying together for the long haul.
Please don't let insidious boredom enter into your relationship through the back door. This is what frequently happens when we are busy placing other things ahead of our time for each other. You know what I mean---the job, the kids, our friend in crisis, etc. There will always be a competing interest for the time you've set aside for each other.
Other than natural disasters, threat of death or major crises, do not allow your time together to be invaded by any outside forces. Make sure to create opportunities for you to do things together without outside influence. With more than 50% of today's marriages ending in divorce, make this small investment in the longevity of your relationship. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. What's stopping you? Start today.

Orgasm is a blissful exchange of energy between two lovers.  It might exhaust you physically but spiritually it recharges every atom in your body.

Love First Aid Kit

Have you ever had the feeling that you need to put a band aid on your relationship.  Maybe one of you has been hurt in a way that makes you feel upset or just angry.  This isn't a relationship ending situation but one that might keep you at odds with each other for a little while.  When this happens it is a good idea to have a Love First Aid kit around.  Get some Band Aids and throw them in a box with a marker so you can draw a heart on the bandage when you have to use this kit.  Basically, what you do is when you feel upset with your partner pull out the box and put on a bandage with the heart drawn on it as a signal to your partner that you both need to do a little work.  Put other items in the box that the two of you might enjoy.  Inside, you could have your favorite movie, a bottle of your favorite wine, coupons to your favorite restaurant or anything that the two of you enjoy.  At this time, forget your issues and enjoy each other.  True, this doesn't solve the issue or problem, but it helps to show that your relationship is stronger than any problems that might arise.  Plus, getting into this state of enjoying your relationship might help open up the lines of communication so that you can talk about the issue and put it behind you.

Eating Less Together.

love and support will get you on the road to being healthy together. 
We are creatures of habit and when one of us eats the other one usually does to.  This is especially true when snacking.  How many times has your partner asked you if you want some as they are enjoying a snack?  This leads to the extra weight we all seem to pack on.  I am challenging you all to eat less by helping each other in this cause.  Instead of snacking together try doing something healthy together like yoga, taking walks, or even dancing.  Try it next time you feel like snacking, instead of reaching for the bag of chips ask your partner to go on a walk.  Now you are burning calories instead of consuming them and you are getting some wonderful time with your partner.  Be each others support and you can't go wrong.
