3. SURPRISE YOUR PARTNER FROM TIME TO TIME
Surprising your partner from time to time will help keep your relationship fresh. Surprises help keep the excitement in your relationship alive.
4. REGULAR DATE NIGHTS
During the initial phase of a relationship, couples tend to go out on dates regularly but most couples stop doing this after dating for a while. Scheduling regular date nights can help keep your relationship fresh.
5. AVOID TAKING YOUR PARTNER FOR GRANTED
You can’t keep your relationship fresh if you take your partner for granted. You make the relationship go stale when you take for granted the role and contributions your partner makes in the relationship.
6. REMAIN YOUR TRUE SELF
Our partner fell in love with us for a reason and we need to ensure we keep doing the things we did that made our partner fall in love with us. Keep the elements of you that your partner fell in love with.
7. NEVER BE TOO BUSY FOR PARTNER

8. ALWAYS LOOK YOUR BEST
Most people tend to look their best during the initial phase of a relationship and then let their looks go after being in a relationship for a while. Taking care of yourself and looking your best will help keep things fresh in your relationship.
9. NEVER STOP SAYING “I LOVE YOU”
If you want to keep things fresh in your relationship, you should never stop telling your partner how you feel. Never let a day go by without saying “I love you”.
10. NEVER STOP TOUCHING
Regular physical contact with your partner is a good way to keep things fresh in your relationship. You shouldn’t just focus on having sex as often as possible but you should also cuddle, kiss, holds hands, give massages etc without it leading to sex.
