Here are a few tips and ideas on how to get out of a rut when you’re in a relationship.

When you have a routine in a relationship, it can be good and a positive thing, but these routines shouldn’t become intrusive. Make the most of going back to work or education to inject a bit of life back into your relationship and rediscover each other. Here’s our advice.

In a world where you can reach anyone 24/7, it’s easy to always have something to do, someone to call, a series to watch. Take a break and take some time to be with your other half, talk to them.
