#RomanceAllYear - Do you know how to keep the fires burning?

We don't take the time for each other that we should, but I always try to make sure we're connecting here and there throughout the day; a little touch, telling each other we love each other, etc.

We always reconnect by taking mini-vacations. We frequently take day trips to other cities or night trips camping. Just spending time with each other with no distractions, phones off, really helps us reconnect.

We always set aside alone time even if it is only once a week. Most of the time its dinner and movie. Whether we are out or in the house. I appreciate just snuggling with him.

I'm single now, but as the weather would start to get better we'd go camping, and fun but goofy things like the old drive in movie theater, mini golf...When we'd get home we be in such good moods that intimacy was so relaxed and perfect.

We like to do date nights or dinner and a movie. Just nice for us to even spend time together talking and smiling at each other no matter what's going on. We must do things each other because if we don't get enough time together, we seem to get grouchy for missing each other. X-) And I'm totally in my own world... lol Thank you for the giveaway!!

Lately it's been really crazy around here! But we always schedule in some "us" time. No matter what!

We try to make our love life a priority, but even if we have to schedule time, even if its just a few minutes, we do it.

Reconnecting for us is not just the bedroom though that is a major plus but learning to openly communicate with each other and our expectations.

We spend an evening doing nothing but laying down with each other watching our shows or playing video games together. We haven't gotten to do that in a while though.

Right now we do not really get together. Trying though. Three kids under age 3 is not an easy Romance day.

Reconnecting for us is simple; we simply spend some much needed time cuddling up to one another while watching a movie together after the little guy goes to bed or we give each other a relaxing massage before bedtime. Also, when we have the time, etc. we like to go out without the munchkin just to get away and do something for ourselves.

Yes! We often find ourselves snapping at each other. When that happens, I plan a DIY spa night for us. He loves the giving and receiving attention and it helps us reconnect.

I'm picking up lots of good tips from this thread to use next time I'm in a relationship.

I'll generally MAKE time for myself. I feel like I'm never too busy to find at least a little time to have fun!

Going camping. There's nothing better than spending the whole day hiking, climbing and exhausting yourself while building trust with your partner. By the end of the day, you're so calm and feel so strong, within your self and with your lover, that your lovemaking will be amazing.

We just usually act silly or watch Netflix together to wind down.

How do you keep those fires burning all year round? Well, you re-light them frequently! I know, not a good answer, but it sounded so perfect in my head.

I have to agree with the majority, we have to get OUT and go experience and enjoy each other. Enjoy something different and be away from all the stress associated with home -- work, school, cleaning, etc. So it's really kind of vital to get out and do something with each other frequently, for us anyway,

We usually take what I call our mini road trip once or twice a week. That was today actually. Well, more like this evening and most of the night. It's really fun because we end up experiencing all sorts of things we wouldn't have ever done if we'd have decided to stay home. On the weekends we have all the family and kids & it's so fun and chaotic and that's a lovely loving time, but I always look forward to our mini road trips. They really keep us exciting and the long car ride is even part of the goodness of it because we get long, crazy and funny chat time!

My partner and i live for the weekends. We always find time then to dedicate solely to each other and just connect intimately.

sleepovers at grandma's for the girls

you can always set time aside even on busy days, even something as simple as a cuddle helps keep that connection

Being in a long distance relationship means that whenever I see my partner it's after being apart for a while, so that helps keep the passion alive between us. When we're together we try to take full advantage of what little time we have and we make more effort to create good memories.

My partner and I set aside nights that are just ours. They're planned in advance and non-negotiable. It really gives us something to look forward during the week.

If we're both busy, we just make sure to have a quickie before bed.

We reconnect over dinner usually, then after-dinner cuddling and sometimes more

through the laws of Niddah and family purity we keep everything fresh and new,
