Hello,
My hubby & I have been married for 9 years and we have been doing the usual routine of work, dinner, watch tv, sleep over and over again. There's no spark in our relationship, no excitement and fulfilment. So, I would like to gather ideas here how to spice up the daily life. What do you guys do after work?
 


hihi,

for me, we will do the follwing:
*facebooking
*erm..to ktv pub to sing till 10pm (once a week)
*meet close couple fren for dinner together
*cook (once a week)
*buy some cocktails to drink at home while watching tv

but above all still seems boring for us..
btw, we are newly married but have been staying together even before married.

*we go prawn fishing on weekends occasionally.
*we go movies quite frequently..be it weekends/ weekdays
*we go nearby malls to walk around and settle dinner
*ocassionaly i will enrol us on those free events/ talks
*we go concerts once in a blue moon coz it's costly
*i go search www.hungrygowhere.com occasioanlly for dinner places..so we dun go repeated places for dinner.. there are lotsa choices to narrow down your choice: u can choose eg. budget, romantic hangout, first date (for hubby birthday dinner etc)

do u have a kid?

i also worry the above will die down in years to come..sigh
 
Hi,
Thanks for your quick reply. You guys are at least putting in effort to do things together. I think that is impt in a marriage. For us, it has come to a point that we have become too comfortable and lazy with the routine. I think we need to address this for our marriage to work well. And no, we dont have any kids yet.

hi, even the above listed have already made me feel bored.

sometime ago, i even suggested to go visit jurong bird park and zoo with my other couple fren!

at first hubby objected softly..he said "for wat"
but when i insisted and went along with another couple fren (so it wont look so weird at least we have frens on company), he enjoyed himself lo..after all it's been some donkey years ever since he went

mayb it's your biological clock ticking! and you are ready to advance to next phrase of life?
 
I dont think its my bio clock... We aren't ready for kids yet... Haa...

Im now searching for things to do like maybe sports, theatre, SSO etc.
 
while it's nice for you to enjoy some things in common, i think it's equally important for you not to lose sight of your individual self .. go and do something that you are interested in ..
 
Hi...
Pink Cloud your married life seem exciting ya...is really good to think of ideas to make the marriage days more interesting.

I enjoyed going to beaches walking along esplanade river with my partner. Cooking a nice meal during the weekend is what my partner likes.

Chocholic,
You can consider signing up dancing classes together? I wish to do that with my partner if we could have more time.

Dogs are not allowed in all areas. I know they are not allowed in the "nature reserve" so depending on where you are bringing your dog.
 
Or you are asking about directions?

A round trip including the TreeTop Walk may be about 7 to 10 km, approximately 3-5 hours depending on your walking pace.

SM,
I am bringing a lazy Frog Not Dog ler..hee so he should be able to hop in there bah...lol
 
Pink, you can find most of the detail with the link I posted ya.

Cucl,
For a moment I tot Sm is trying to be funny lol...btw sm what happened to your eyes?
 
I had a detached retina.. so I had an operation. vision is blur.. and my other eye is not fully corrected.. so my vision is not good
 
Sm,
I just google on detached retina, is a very serious condition and does pose a risk of complete loss of vision.

Treatment for Retinal Detachment
An eye surgeon must reattach a detached retina. Laser photocoagulation, a method of sealing off leaking blood vessels and destroying new blood vessel growth with a laser beam, is another way to reattach the retina.

Sm you had did tat ah?
 
don't think it will help. mine is recovery from surgery..

Recovery is slow though.. only way the doctor said to speed up recovery is to take steroids..

ha ha.. a lot of side-effect though..
 
dont take steroids...
Let it heal slowly bah, no harm trying to eat those food is good for eyes too. Good for your health too...
 
I took one pill out of curiosity.

Insomnia.. wah damn strong.. whole night and next day also not tired..

Doctors prescribed 3 pills a day.. but 1 pill is enough for me.. I still want my sleep so I stopped after taking 1 pill
 
nono sm,

if directions i can always rely on GPS ma

i was wondering to get to the bridge to see the manificant view, must i climb until wana go and die then can see the bridge..hahahaha

coz i personally dun do sports and is always dragged to the gym by hubby..and i hate it!! i only do treadmill for mere 20 mins only. and im dying already
 
Pink,
Try to walk from the venus drive carpark (30 mins- 45 mins walk) from the carpark at Venus Drive. A round trip including the TreeTop Walk may be about 7 to 10 km.

U can make it there alive lar.
 
wat!! 7-10km?
looking at the information, i haven walk already panting liao..

then i dun wana go already..unless can drive thru nearby, and stop to climb bridge..like the new bridge at mt faber..hahahaa
 
pink,

Not much of a view from there.

However, there is a tower nearby.. that one got better view as less blockage by trees.. must climb but not so bad ..
 
lol pink,
for me I love to walk n walk...so that fine with me ler heee...my sis told me that she took 45min to finished the trip.

Chocholic,
U might want to try out the marina mandarin or hotel continental lounge after a nice dinner with your hubby. I used to go there to relax with my partner.

If you walk from venus drive.. to there 30 mins.. back another 30 mins.. climb up and look around 30 mins.

Total should be 1.5 hrs.. not too bad lah..
