Here are some innovative ideas to consider:
Cooking together is a feast for all your senses says Marnie Carmichael, founder of Spring Valley, OH-based bakery/confectionary Nonnie Waller’s Traditional Southern. “The kitchen, not the bedroom, is the most important room in the house to build and grow a wonderful relationship,” she says. “With pots boiling and knives chopping, cooking together is a deeply shared and communal experience. The bumping into each other and tripping over each other, trying to get to a pot before it spills over—that’s all part of the fun.” 3. Do something good: “My boyfriend and I really enjoy doing volunteer work together,” says Suzy Walton of Miami. “It always feels good to help others, and doing it with someone special increases that good feeling. It’s also a break from the usual dinner-and-a-movie routine.”
Swaying hips are always alluring, and San Francisco-based Christabel Zamor (a self-proclaimed “Hoop Star”) suggests kicking it up a notch by hula-hooping with your date. “Your bodies become warm and energized and your senses become awakened,” she says. “Before [hooping], I was feeling uptight, guarded and uninterested in my own sensuality. Hoop dance has transformed my entire being and skyrocketed my sex life!” Plus, it’s a good cardiovascular workout. Two birds, one stone…
My boyfriend and I take turns reading to each other at night,” says Marcie Camp of New Haven, CT. “It’s a nice way to end the day, to be close and to really listen to each other. We also have fun going to the used book store to pick out the book we’ll read.”
Taking a new tack toward improving your togetherness gives you a chance to forge a stronger bond with each other and to increase your spiritual, emotional and physical closeness. Who wouldn’t want that? So get busy and try one (or more) of these ideas tomorrow.
