How to Keep the Spark Alive in Your Relationship with Your Boyfriend
Don't let the spark fade, learn how to keep it alive
Relationships take effort and dedication to keep the spark alive. Whether you've been together for a few months or several years, it's important to continually nurture and invest in your relationship. Here are some tips to help you keep the spark alive in your relationship with your boyfriend:
1. Communication is Key
One of the most crucial aspects of any relationship is communication. Open and honest communication allows you to express your needs, desires, and concerns. Make it a habit to talk to your boyfriend regularly and truly listen to what he has to say. This will help build trust and create a deeper connection between you.
2. Plan Regular Date Nights
Life can get busy, and it's easy to fall into a routine. To keep the spark alive, plan regular date nights where you can spend quality time together. It could be a romantic dinner at a new restaurant, a movie night at home, or even a fun activity like hiking or dancing. The key is to dedicate time solely to each other and create new memories.
3. Surprise Each Other
Surprises are a great way to keep the excitement alive in your relationship. Surprise your boyfriend with small gestures like leaving a sweet note in his lunchbox or planning a surprise date. It doesn't have to be extravagant; even the smallest surprises can make a big impact and show that you're thinking of him.
4. Keep the Romance Alive
Romance is an essential ingredient in any relationship. Keep the romance alive by doing things that make your boyfriend feel loved and appreciated. Cook his favorite meal, plan a candlelit dinner, or surprise him with a thoughtful gift. Small acts of romance can go a long way in keeping the spark alive.
5. Show Interest in His Hobbies
Take an interest in your boyfriend's hobbies and passions. Engage in activities that he enjoys and show genuine curiosity about them. This will not only strengthen your bond but also allow you to spend quality time together doing something he loves. It's a great way to deepen your connection and create shared experiences.
6. Keep the Intimacy Alive
Intimacy is an important part of any romantic relationship. Keep the spark alive by prioritizing physical affection and intimacy. This can include cuddling, kissing, and engaging in activities that bring you closer together. Remember that intimacy goes beyond just the physical; emotional intimacy is equally important. Share your thoughts, dreams, and fears with each other to create a deeper emotional connection.
7. Support Each Other's Goals
Supporting each other's goals and dreams is crucial in maintaining a healthy and thriving relationship. Encourage your boyfriend to pursue his passions and be there to support him along the way. Celebrate each other's achievements and be a source of motivation and inspiration. When you both feel supported, it strengthens your bond and keeps the spark alive.
8. Keep the Element of Surprise Alive
Routine can sometimes dampen the excitement in a relationship. Keep the element of surprise alive by trying new things together. Plan spontaneous trips, explore new hobbies, or take up a class as a couple. Stepping out of your comfort zones and experiencing new things together can reignite the spark and create lasting memories.
9. Practice Gratitude
Expressing gratitude is a simple yet powerful way to keep the spark alive in your relationship. Take the time to appreciate and acknowledge the things your boyfriend does for you. Show gratitude for the little things, such as acts of kindness and support. A simple "thank you" can go a long way in fostering love and appreciation.
10. Never Stop Dating Each Other
Lastly, never stop dating each other. Even after years together, make an effort to keep the dating mentality alive. Plan surprises, go on adventures, and continually invest in your relationship. Remember the reasons why you fell in love and keep nurturing those feelings.
In conclusion, keeping the spark alive in your relationship requires effort, dedication, and a willingness to continually invest in each other. Through open communication, regular date nights, surprises, support, and practicing gratitude, you can keep the flame burning and create a lasting, fulfilling relationship with your boyfriend.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.

Vocal & my relationship to publishing traditionally
Ever since my small writing beginnings, when I started writing on Vocal in February 2021, I had been in a truly terrible slump & funk when it came to my writing. I had so many unfinished projects, ideas, half finished manuscripts and first chapters that were going nowhere.
