How do you stop a 10yr long relationship going stale?

Question

If it's already gone that way, can we get the spark back, or is that a sign it's not meant to be?

Answer 1

depends why did it go stale

is it fixable

has it been like this for along time

sometimes yes its not meant to be, but at other times...it could be just little things that could be easily improved

do what you think is best for yourself

dont just stay because of how long it has been.

Answer 2

start a new one with someone younger and hotter; much more fun!!!

Answer 3

Stick them in the freezer to keep them fresh.

Answer 4

Every relationship takes work no matter how much you love one another. There will be time when love is felt in the heart and there will also be times that love is a choice we make like as in a commitment. The good news is that it sounds like you desire to put in the work so as long as you and your partner have open communication ALWAYS even when you are upset with one another then you will be fine. It's when people don't consider the other persons feelings and needs and or chose to ignore the other persons feelings and needs that the relationship derails. Hope this helps

Answer 5

The relationship is 10 years old and your 10 years older as well. Things change and the way it was will never be again. However it doesn't mean you roll over and play dead. You just understand that you do something different but not the old way. Its meant to be, its just you haven't face the reality that times do change things, yes ever that!
