Dating a nice but boring guy

To ensure you never take a relationship for granted, don’t make the mistake of forgetting why you and your partner fell in love in the first place, House says.

If you feel it slipping away, revisit all the reasons why you’re compatible. You could also make an effort to venture back to the early days by recreating your first date.

Again, the balm that solves it all is effort.

“By far the biggest mistake you can make is when you recognize that you are getting bored or not fulfilled and choose to do nothing about it,” House says. “You are choosing to stop making the effort, and that will be the end of your relationship.”
