Ok so you would like to know how to keep your love fresh after 6 years together? I take it you dated for 3 years and almost got married for 3 times or 3 years? We have been married for 20 years now. And the way we keep our marriage fresh is make dates and keep them; in romantic out of the norm places. Give each other little sex toys or items. For that hint of play tonite. Send cards to each other at home or work. Surprise each other with secret love notes. Have him/her follow a riddle trail through out the house or even city. Meet him/her for surprise lunch. In other words...to keep things happenin, ya gotta keep things happenin.

when u first get together about 21 times!! then the longer you are together the more it goes down(especially hovering around the three year mark) but don't fear - it slow rises again(no pun intended!!Hehe!) never to the extent of when ur first together. but hey every couple is diferent so you'll have to read all the answers and find out!!Good Luck

6 years is pretty long and yet he does not want anything serious. Obviously you both want different things. Whats' the point then? Perhaps you grow too comfortable with him not necessary content. Time to move on and look for someone different.

Then keep "dating." But you should keep records to see at what age the invitations begin to slow down, kind of like listening to the microwave popcorn bag. At that point, marry the first decent guy who is crazy about you.

I met my husband on Valantines day, 2weeks later we were dating, two months later in may we were married. We have been married for 3 yrs and we were both happy we didn't waste time with what we knew was right. Do what you feel is right. there are no timelines you must follow.

We waited till marriage\n\nWe havee now been married for nearly 14 years and are very happy together.\n\nI think being able to wait did encourage us to put our relationship into areas that we could build our friendship on - and that i find to be the most important part of marriage is being able to like and respect one another and being able to relate to one another.\n\nSex - great - but if that is all the relationship is based on then it wont last very long.  Also if you hav waited and the first night isn't the best then you still have commitment from each other to work on it rather than on relying on it to pull you through.\n\nResisting temptations - if that is really difficult then don't have a long engagement - bring the date forward if need be.  The marriage is more important than having a 'big' day after all.  But meanwhile - resisting temptations - try not to take long periods of time alone indoors (chaperones?) - that is when temptation can strike most often.  also avoid heavy petting - and bear in mind if you haven't got one then PAWZOFF until you are married (and NO i am NOT referring to not touching his car or her microwave!)\n\nI hope that some of the above helps\n\nand God bless your upcoming marriage\n\nwhen is the happy date?

Let it go... Don't bug him about a 3 mth anniversary.. You can do that if you get married to him, but not while dating. You'll just scare him away if you annoy him with this!!

tell her how much you love her and promise to keep in touch. perhaps you could make a little scrapbook with pictures of the good times you guys had together

I met my spouse on line - dating service.\nWe met about 2 months later, I felt this was the person for me from the first glance as we met at a local restaurant.\nWe were married 6 months later.\nWe've been together (married) now for 4 years.\nWe have our good and bad times, but we are still very much in love and are continuing to plan our futures together.\n\nHope this helps.

Hello crazy lady, when I met the lady that ended up being my wife, we went out on a blind date for the weekend! Both nights I slept on the couch and she was in her bedroom. When I got back to work on Monday, I realized that we were together for 40 hours. I sent her 40 long stem red roses, one for each hour of our first date! We were married 18 months later and this Saturday will be our 11 year anniversary! There are other guys out there that are very romantic (we celebrate our anniversary each month!) and if you continue to just be yourself, stay positive and keep an eye out, you will find him or he will find you!

You know what? I don't think it is fair what some of the others have said..i think it is entirely possible to lose abit of that...and what you need to do is relive a lot of the past...remember a lot fo the romantic things you did for him and sneak those things back in to your repetoire...by that I mean...I sent my wife an Easter card when she went back to see her family in South America and she loved it..my wife and I started off by writing and emailing and while we've known each other for 11 years we've been married for 7.  I always try to do things, read old letters, look at pictures and read diaries of things we did together and I try to do them again...go to fine restaurants (tough with a child) but we do what we can.  I haven't fallen out of love with my wife but I think that it is necessary for you to start dating your husband on a weekly basis so that it doesn't happen again-FLIRT WITH HIM-go park..hehe whatever.....life is a long journey..sometimes it seems as though your priorities with children and work that sometimes you may lose the spark a bit..just light the pilot light again and do what you can to get his attention and it doesn't have to go back to the bed-especially if you are trying to see where his feelings lie with you...(no pun intended)...yeah that will get his attention in the short run..as it will in most men...BUT....it won't stand for the long run...so there has to be more.  maybe play hard to get a little..make him feel as though he has to give chase a bit...don't play the game too long...but...entice him..take him out for ice cream or even to a ball game EVEN if you HATE baseball or football...or a concert if he doesn't care for sports...\namusement park..you get the idea...do things that he LOVES to do that you would normally not care so much for because you CARE about doing stuff he is interested in...it is just an idea...surprise him...

Oh man, my hubby and I will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary this Oct and 5 years of being together. It has taken us a long time to figure this one out. The answer sounds so simple but it can take ALLOT of self control and discipline. The key to a successful relationship is having a forgiving, unconditional love for your partner. Being able to accept blame and admit wrong doing and knowing what to do to change is a big key. When we talk "fight" we do not tell the other what we don't like about them but what we recognize they don't like about us. This way its not assigning blame and creating defensive walls but acknowledging wrong and working together to change. We are best friends, lovers, and we embrace all things together as a team. Marriage is the HARDEST thing to do in this journey we call life but I PROMISE it has the largest rewards! My husband and I got divorced last year and realized on the day of our divorce in the courtroom that we were running from our problems and making the biggest mistake of our lives. You have to go THROUGH your problems, you can not avoid them in any way. Good luck to you

Remember to always keep some spice in the relationship. Don't get comfortable and fall into the routine of marriage. Try new and exciting sexual positions, as well as places. Surprise each other with small forget me nots and gifts. Most importantly, remind each other how lucky you are to have found a love that most people search their whole life for and never find. Congrats!

I am in a situation like that but at the end of the day all it takes is trust. It is hard at first but then you get used of the idea that out there someone is wiating for me and really loves me.The important thing is that there is still love. And remember that love conqueres everything. It is only a matter of time before you are reunited.
