As a relationship begins to age, it tends to become boring. This is a perfectly natural part of life, and mostly unavoidable. This is especially true when it comes to married couples with children. Thankfully, however, this “boringness” only lasts for as long as you allow it to.
There are numerous ways that you can breathe new life back into your relationship, and experimenting with new things is one of the most effective. This article will now break down and explain why experimenting with new things improves one’s relationship with their partner:
Excitement
Trying new things with your partner can be very exciting, particularly if they are sexual things. Having new sexual experiences with your partner can be a great way to reinvigorate and refresh your relationship. The excitement experienced when trying new things sexually is very similar to the excitement that you will have experienced in the early days of your relationship. This is especially true if you are trying things like threesomes, extreme fetishes, and role-play. Sex toys are also a great way to liven up the bedroom, especially if you haven’t previously tried them before. Experimentation can create a lot of excitement, which is important for a healthy relationship.
Fears
Overcoming fears is a very effective way of strengthening your bond to your partner, solidifying your relationship, and increasing your affection and love for one another. Everybody has their own fears. Trying things with your partner that you both feel uncomfortable and fearful of doing can make your relationship feel brand new. When you do manage to overcome your fears, you will feel bonded to your partner because they helped you to get through your fearful experience and come out unscathed. Whatever you’re scared of, try to overcome it with your partner by experimenting with new things. If you’re afraid of heights, go bungee jumping, for example.
Commitment
Experimenting with new things can increase your commitment to your relationship, as well as your partners. As we have already mentioned, the more new things that you try together, the closer you will feel. Improved commitment can drastically improve one’s relationship with their partner. A lack of commitment can be a killer for a relationship, so by improving your commitment, you are strengthening and solidifying your relationship. Commitment is something that is essential if you want your relationship to last a lifetime.
Bonding
In addition to improving your commitment to your partner, experimentation also improves your bond. A strong bond has many benefits. One of the primary benefits of being more bonded to your partner is that you will feel closer and more intimately connected to them. It will help you to feel comfortable confiding in them and will strengthen your relationship. Being more bonded to your partner will also reduce the chances of infidelity, lies, and general dishonesty. It will also make you both feel more confident that you have made the right decision and that you want to stay together for the rest of your lives.
Enjoyment
At the very least, experimentation is a lot of fun. There are so many things in the world for you to experiment with, from sexual activities to extreme sports. By experimenting with your partner, you are creating memories that will last a lifetime. Creating these memories together will perhaps be the best days of your life, and, if you stay with your partner for the rest of your life, you will have lots of fond memories to look back upon. This is especially true nowadays, with the advent of digital cameras and video recording technology. One is able to capture moments eternally, simply by taking a photograph or a video. You can relive the enjoyment that you and your partner experienced through experimentation by capturing these moments on camera. If you are practicing sexual experimentation, you can still video it, with your partner’s permission of course.
Sharing
When you are drawing up a list of things that you both want to experiment with, you will have an opportunity to share your fears with your partner. If you do not share your fears with them, then you won’t be able to overcome your fears, as we mentioned earlier. The discussion surrounding experimentation will give you an opportunity to try new things and find out a lot about yourself, and your partner. You will find out what they like, what you deeply want, and what things you have in common in terms of experimentation.
As this article demonstrates, there are many advantages to trying new things with your partner. Before you try anything, make sure that you have discussed it thoroughly, and you are both on the same page. You shouldn’t try anything that you aren’t comfortable with.
