There comes a time when our relationships become routine. We get married, have 10,000 babies, and lose the spark we once had. We wake up, say hi to each other, go to work, come home, say hi again, and go to bed. Then we get up and do it all over again the next day.

This is something I try very hard to avoid. I never want to lose that spark.

The best relationships are when you get along like best friends. I can honestly say I have never been bored in my entire relationship of four years.

For cereal, just laying in the dark is entertaining enough. Me and my boyfriend try anything to keep the other one laughing.

Here’s a list of 30 unexpected ways we’ve had fun in our relationship.

Rough patches in relationships pretty much feel like sandpaper being rubbed on a fresh wound. Often times you don’t know if you should put a band-aid on it or just let the fresh air help heal the wound.

I fell in love with my boyfriend pretty much the first night we ever hung out, and I knew in my gut that this coworker of mine was going to change my life forever. We soon became inseparable, spending every day together. When we weren’t together, we would constantly text each other throughout the day.

We became serious very fast, and we started talking about having a home and a family three months into our relationship. But that seriousness also caused us to have rough patches pretty early on.

We had to compromise on serious issues that people often wait until they’re married to have. We discussed money. We discussed my problems with being around alcohol. I taught him the meaning of saving money. He taught me how to open up.

Without us being patient and understanding with each other, there probably would be no us. There have been times I just wanted to throw my hands in the air and say screw it. But I knew I would never find another person who I could connect with the way I connect with my booboo bear.

Being in a hardcore serious relationship takes a lot of adjustments from both sides, and rough patches in relationships may not always be fixable. But sometimes rough patches can make the bond between you and your partner that much closer.

Let me help you get through them.
