YOUR FRIENDS' ACTIVITY

    3 discussion topics that will improve your relationship

    When you first started dating your guy, the two of you talked about everything and your conversations often lasted until the wee hours of the morning. But now that you've been dating him for awhile, you have noticed that your conversations have gone downhill. Sometimes you two have nothing to talk about and end up just watching TV on the couch for hours. Try add the following discussion topics to your conversations to strengthen your bond with your boyfriend.

    Fears

    Sharing your fears with one another can make them seem less significant and make you two more vulnerable. When you are on the couch alone with him one night, ask him about the types of things that scare him and why they scare him so much. Once he is done sharing, tell him what scares you the most. You might find out that you two share some of the same fears and can help each other move past them.

    Goals

    It is always important to have goals, no matter how long you've been with your guy. Sit down and discuss goals with one another some time. Whether you want to travel to another country, earn another degree or run a marathon, share your biggest goals with him. If you talk about your goals with each other, you will be more motivated to achieve them.

    Disappointments

    Everyone experiences disappointments, and it is important to discuss them with your significant other. Open up to your guy about the job you didn't get or how you didn't do so well on your psychology exam. Talking about disappointments with the one you love can be comforting and help motivate you to keep trying.

    Adding these discussion topics to your conversations will definitely strengthen your bond with your boyfriend and help the two of you get to know each other better. It might be difficult at first to share some of these personal things with your guy, but it will get easier.
