Doing Things Your Lover Loves Because You Love Your Lover

1/21/2016

Love what your spouse loves! And find shared hobbies! Having shared hobbies and interests can be extremely fun and enlightening; not only do you learn more about a new realm of the world you may not have delved into before, but you learn more about your spouse! You get a new insight into their soul, understand better what interests, bothers, drives, motivates, and excites him/her. It’s a great way to reinvigorate your love life and get to know each other on a new, refreshing level. So pick up a new hobby as a couple. It doesn’t have to be something only one of you is familiar with; you can do something neither of you are familiar with, and how fun would that be?! Try rock climbing or snowshoeing; pick up a new instrument; try cooking or baking a new dish; study a place of the world you want to travel to; build something together (a chicken coop, a garage shelf, a dog house, garden dividers, etc); get into art (there are even affordable classes for that sort of thing!); volunteer at a shelter or organization in your community; take a stab at photography or editing pictures or music, or making movies using free online tools; read poetry to each other; watch a TV series….the ideas are endless!
