The New Year is only one month down and the Valentine's Day is almost here. What could be a better time than this to give your relationship just the booster it needs. We present you with three wonderful ideas.
1. How about romance in a tent?
Who says you need expensive flight tickets or oodles of money to take off from your routine life? All you need to do is choose a safe beach nearby, (the Konkan coastline has a lot of them), simply pitch a tent on one of these, inflate a mattress, light a lamp outside and you are good to go - a romantic getaway and almost for free. This is doable at the clean beach fronts of Goa and Karnataka as well. Alternatively, you could also choose a beach resort with ample beach frontage and take permission from the resort authorities to pitch a tent on their premises for which you may have to pay a paltry sum. This will give you the combined benefit of both safety that a private property offers and a sense of adventure which will only enhance the magic of love.
2. Discover your city together
You may have lived in the same city for years, but do you remember the last time you looked at it with your man, let alone explore its not-so-known facets? Here is an idea- rent bikes—if you don’t have two of your own - pack a picnic basket and explore your town – together! Choose to tour areas that are not so traffic laden and have open spaces for you to enjoy. You will be surprised to see the number of small parks and cool alleys that even a city like Mumbai has. Agreed, this may not be as charming as the French countryside and yet you will have enough to enjoy!
3. Let the date box take charge
If you’ve been together for over a couple of years, sometimes laziness may set in. It does not always mean that your man has fallen out of love or that you are any less attracted to him. But it does mean that you need to ignite that spark again. To turn on the excitement, start by setting in place a date box. Sit with your man and write down some electrifying date ideas on a piece of paper and agree that once or twice every week, you both will, turn by turn, pick one chit and live that hot date idea. You will be surprised at how much this will reconnect you with your man.
