If you were locked up in an empty room for 3 hours with your partner, with no access to external forms of entertainment, would you enjoy each other’s company? Would you have interesting experiences to share, or after a while you would run out of things to say? Or would you feel suffocated and begin to irritate each other?
Alone time with your significant other ought to be enjoyable for the both of you. With the passage of time, the initial sparks you felt when you first met will dwindle. And every relationship has moments when either, or both of the partners feel that the union has become dull. But these phases come and go.
However, if you find yourself in a state of constantly feeling tired and unexcited in the relationship, then it’s not a passing stage in your love life. Boredom will be the prevailing mood unless you take steps to remedy your situation.
