We have been married for a few years know and my husband has been trying to get me to try so more not so conventional things. I like the idea but I am a little skeptical. Looking for some advice.....
How do you get your partner to try new things?

We have a deal that unless it's something the other person is entirely against, we'll try it once. I've suggested a lot of things that she was skeptical of, but she fell in love with after trying

It depends on what it is. Say it is hiking and we don't hike - I say it would mean a lot for us to try it together. I would love to do it. With him. He is more willing knowing how interested I am.

Make deals. Tell him you'll do what thing he's asking at the time as long as he does something you want. That way you're opening even more doors at once!

Well if there is something I know he wants to try I suggest trades sort of an eye for an eye thing. It usually works well and most of the time we at least enjoy one or the other thing that we tried out.

If you're only skeptical that you might not particularly care for it (as opposed to finding it an absolute turn-off), I'd say go for it. Worst case scenario, it doesn't do anything for you. Best case, you've got a new favorite thing!

With my boyfriend and I, we don't really need to get one another to do anything, as we both enjoy trying new things ATLEAST once or twice to know if we like it, or not! It's quite enjoyable to have a wonderful open-minded partner like him. I'd say go for it. If you try it once and realize you hate it.. don't do it again, but at least you know where your limits lie!
