Ten Romantic New Year's Resolutions to Improve Your Relationship



Why not set a few romantic resolutions?



RomanceStuck.com,an online resource for romance and relationships, offers 10 New Year's resolutions for improving your relationship in 2008. Resolutions are usually about improving yourself as an individual. They're not often geared towards improving your relationship. This year, why not set a few romantic resolutions?

10 Romantic New Year's Resolutions to Improve your Relationship:

1. Set a monthly 'date night' and stick to it. Even if it's just dinner and a movie or a candle-lit dinner together at home, resolve to make time for each other this year.

2. Say "I Love You" every single day. These three small words carry so much meaning, yet they're never said often enough. Make sure that your partner knows you love and appreciate them every single day.

3. Put your love in writing. Nothing gives you warm fuzzies of love like receiving a simple love note or a passionate love letter. Vow this year to put pen to paper and write your sweetie love notes, love poems, and love letters.

4. Bring back the spontaneity in your relationship! Try sending her flowers "just because". Buy him 2 tickets to a game of his favorite sport -- and go with him! Vow to surprise your partner at least once a month.

5. Get away from it all with a weekend get-away. Head to a cabin in the mountains or a relaxing spa. It doesn't really matter where you go, as long as you go together and leave the interruptions behind.

6. Show your love each and every day. Give your partner compliments, hold hands, open doors, and engage in public displays of affection. It's the little things you do to show your love that always mean the most.

7. Shake up your romantic life with a little creativity. Create your own love coupon book with one coupon for your partner to redeem each week of the year. These little coupons can be as romantic, sexy, or practical as you want.

8. Have fun together! Take up a new hobby together this year. Join a softball team together, take cooking lessons, golf lessons, or dancing lessons. You'll not only learn something new, but you'll have fun with your partner at the same time!

9. Don't forget the little things. Make him lunch. Paint her toenails. Wash and wax his car. Do her weekly chores. It's the most practical way to show your love!

10. Get to know your partner better. Whether you're dating, just married, or celebrating your 25th anniversary, there is always more to learn about your partner -- and you can have fun doing it!



爱情与情感网站RomanceStuck.com日前公布了2008年改善情感关系的"十大新年决心"。下决心通常是人们用来勉励自己的，一般不用于改善个人的情感关系。可新年已至，为何不表几个浪漫的"爱情决心"呢？

新年十大爱情决心如下：

1.每月安排一个"约会夜"，并要坚持下去。哪怕只是吃一顿晚餐、看一部电影或是在家共进烛光晚餐，总之一定要抽出时间共享二人世界。

2.每天都说"我爱你"。这三个字虽然简单，但意味深长，而我们却很少说它。要让对方知道每天你都一样爱他（她）、欣赏他（她）。

3.用文字表达你的爱。没有什么比收到一张爱的字条或是一封火热的情书更能让人感到爱的温暖。今年一定要多给他（她）写甜言蜜语、情诗和情书。

4.让爱情多一点惊喜！比如：送花给她，没有任何理由；买两张他最喜爱的体育比赛的门票，陪他一起去！做到每月至少给爱人一个惊喜。

5. 周末"胜利大逃亡"，远离一切烦恼。一起去山中度假村过周末，或者来个SPA（水疗）放松一下。其实去哪里并不重要，只要两个人一起去，把一切烦恼抛在脑后！

6. 每天向对方表达你的爱。比如：赞美、牵手、给爱人开门，公开表达爱意等。小事最能见真情。

7.来点小创意。自制"爱情优惠券"，让对方可以每周兑换一张。你可以自定"优惠券"内容，浪漫的、性感的、实际的，任你选择。

8. 一起找乐子！今年要培养一项共同的新爱好。比如：一起加入垒球队，一起上烹饪课、高尔夫课或舞蹈课。不仅能学到新东西，还能与爱人一起分享快乐。

9."勿以善小而不为"。为他做午餐，给她染指甲，替他洗车上蜡，每周帮她做家务......这是最实际的表达爱的方式。

10. 更深入地了解对方。无论你正在"拍拖"，新婚，还是结婚很多年，你总能发现还有不了解对方的地方--在了解对方的过程中也能得到很多乐趣。
