There are a few signs of a boring relationship, including not feeling interested in your partner’s life, feelings, or interests, finding spending time with other people much more enjoyable and exciting, often feeling irritated or annoyed with your partner, and not feeling attracted to them anymore.
There are a lot of reasons why your relationship could’ve turned boring, especially if the early days with your partner were filled with feelings of excitement and always wanting to spend time with them.
Some of the reasons could include that you and your partner might lack basic compatibility, and therefore don't share the same goals and interests. Or maybe you’ve stopped putting effort into the relationship in an effort to combat the boredom by taking steps to add the excitement back in.
One way to fix a boring relationship can be by switching up the usual routines that you have with your partner. Try going somewhere new together or finding a new hobby that the two of you can try together.
Relationship counseling can also be a good way to get an expert’s opinion on a great way to improve you and your partner’s relationship.
