6. Maintain Your Individuality in the Relationship

Even couples who have been married for decades and who still have a strong relationship have individuality. Maintaining your individuality in the relationship will keep you new and exciting to your partner, and ensure that you always have something new to talk about.

7. Improve the Positive To Negative Ratio of the Relationship

Healthy relationships where both couples are engaged typically have a 5 to 1 positive to negative ratio. If you have at least 5 positive interactions for every negative interaction this is a sign that the relationship is healthy and boredom is not usually an issue. If you are below the 5 to 1 ratio then do something to increase the number of positive interactions that you have and lower the number of negative interactions that occur.

8. Find New Things to Talk About

Frequently couples fall into the habit of repeating the same stories and discussions over and over again,  and this can lead to boredom in a relationship. Search out new things to talk with your partner about, and look for topics that interest both of you.

9. Be Selfish About Nurturing the Relationship

If you want to eliminate boredom and keep your relationship exciting then the most important thing that you can do is to be selfish about nurturing your relationship. This can seem difficult when you both work and you have small children and a home to take care of, but being selfish about nurturing your relationship will keep you together as a couple and help you eliminate boredom.
