Don't you hate when your relationship with your beau/girlfriend exits the honeymoon phase? All the attention, the luvyduby stuff, the small things, things you didn't expect. Then the relationship enters a phase that makes it seem like everything is boring. I hate it. It almost makes you feel like "is something else really going on" but it isn't really, you just aren't seeing the things that you did when it was in the honeymoon phase, when it was new and fun with excitement. I guess thats when the real work on relationships begin, once it exits the honeymoon stage.....

Don't let it end, do a little something unnecessary

There are two people in a relationship.

You just like to receive? Then learn to enjoy giving. Bestow on him what he bestowed on you.

What Gooey said too. He will soon start again, give it a kickstart.

well actually this was a general question, doesn't really pertain to me.

but to your response, what if he/she doesn't bestow anything but you are constantly giving? What then?

Then you have to tell your partner what you need from him/her. If your needs in the relationship aren't being met, its ok to ask for what you want.

exactly ...and thats what it takes to make it work for yrs and yrs to come

also know that human relationships ( relation-SHIPS ! like a boat riding the highs and lows of waves ) are like the cycle of all things round and round through the highs and lows and YES you must be willing to work at keeping the relationship fresh and interesting, growing together and learning new things

Sounds like you're not doing enough to make it exciting again! You gotta work at relationships, it's not easy.
