You've been together for a few years now, you have an active social life and let's not even mention the time you spend at work. Your weekends are filled with barbecues with friends and the weddings of your close friends, and during the week between sports, drinks and household chores, all your evenings are busy.

So, you don't have enough time to enjoy your sweetheart, or rather, you don't take the time to dedicate quality time together.

It’s time for new changes

Starting today, you will organize a little surprise for each other once a month, in turns. It doesn't have to be something expensive, it doesn't have to be a night out at a restaurant, it can just be a little moment, no matter the day or the time. The main thing is that you stick to it. Once a month is not excessive, but it's always good to start there.

So depending on the time you want to devote to it, here are 10 surprises to spice up your daily life, and your relationship!

1. Prepare him breakfast in bed

One morning when you have the opportunity to lounge under the duvet and you manage to get out of it without waking him/her, rush into the kitchen and the local bakery to prepare him/her a good breakfast. You certainly know his tastes and what would please him when he wakes up in the morning. If you have the opportunity, stop by the florist to decorate your pretty tray with a rose or a small bouquet.

2. Make him a candlelight dinner

You certainly know what his/her favorite meal is or what he/she likes to eat. Before he/she comes home from work, take the time to create a pretty decor, starting by clearing the living room and dining room of the useless trash that has certainly been lying around for a few days. Use a pretty tablecloth or beautiful placemats, buy some flowers, arrange them in several vases in the room and on the table, and light candles to make the atmosphere romantic and cozy.

All you have to do is seat him/her at the table and serve him/her your little dinner so that he/she can fully enjoy his/her evening.

3. Run him a bath

To create a special atmosphere and moment, place a few candles along the bathtub, turn off the lights, perfume the room with a pleasant home fragrance, and add foam or bath salts to the bathtub. If you want to make it even more romantic, place a few rose petals on the water and place them on the floor to show him/her the way to the bathroom.

As soon as the door opens, welcome him/her by asking him/her to undress and slide into the warm water with him/her.

4. Give him a massage

No need to be on a paradise island, hear the sound of the waves, and hire a professional masseuse for the massage to be relaxing. Light a few candles, scent the room with a fresh scent, put on some soft music, cover your bed with a large towel, and invite him/her to lie down. Opt for a massage oil with frangipani flower for example (better than a moisturizing cream because some will tend to dry quickly) which will hydrate your skin at the same time. Watch some tutorials and videos on the Internet if you think you lack inspiration for your movements but again, the main thing is to create a moment of sharing and relaxation for both of you, not to perform feats. Try massaging his back for about 15 minutes and then move on to other parts of his body. You can massage his legs, feet, hands, face, etc. It's an excellent introduction to a more intimate moment…

5. Special gifts

No need to break the bank, we're talking about a little attention here. A small decorative object that you saw with her the last time you were shopping, the T-shirt that he wanted to buy but he didn't have his size, ... And a nice frame with a beautiful photo of the two of you is also always a great idea!

Have flowers delivered to her office

This idea only works for women, but gentlemen, be assured that it is not a cliché and that all her colleagues will be jealous of the pretty bouquet that will arrive at her office with little notes like "I love you", "I miss you" or "Can't wait to see you tonight"...!

6. Organize a romantic picnic for him

In homemade mode with small salads and sandwiches prepared with love, or in gourmet mode with dishes purchased from the caterer, everything is good. Take advantage of a walk in the woods on a nice day to organize a romantic picnic. Bring something to sit comfortably on the ground and find a discreet and romantic corner during your walk. You can also do it in snack mode by providing cakes and small sweet treats.
