Creativity in a Relationship

A relationship between a man and a woman is a tricky and really complicated thing. Sometimes it resembles paradise on earth with a bed of roses in your mind, seventh heaven in the pocket of your heart and cloud number nine in your in-love head.
There are times, however, when one's relationship turns into a total hell and consists of non-stop fights and quarrels which hardly ever lead to any constructive conclusion or even sometimes result in an explosive breakup procedure.
At some moments your relationship may remind you of a boat out in the open calm sea on a quiet but sunless and slightly uncomfortably cool autumn day. You suddenly become bored with your life, with the person who lives with you. You have nothing exciting to discuss except dwelling upon some trivial domestic things and exchanging occasional interjections.
All these peculiarities of certain stages of man-woman relations are uniquely individual. Being creative is very essential at any of them for it contributes to everything being good on the one hand and helps clear up misunderstandings on the other. Of course, positively creative attitude to your partner and to your relationship in general helps you make the boredom and the bad feeling of tired-of-love disappear without a trace – if feelings are still alive and shaking their round butts at some party outside your common home and castle that is.
What does being creative in a relationship means? Certainly, it doesn't directly imply creative writing (as long as it's not a love note or a love poem...), or creative painting or dancing or singing (serenades are exceptions...). See, seems you can do whatever you want to spice up your relationship as long as it's original and doesn't suggest your partner feeling offended in the long run either because of your inability to express creativity in a proper witty way or 'thanks to' its extra overreacted flavour.
Creativity in a relationship is your ability to stay as fresh as a daisy and, respectively, as fresh and i.e. cool a cucumber. It's your skill to bring your partner new feelings and emotions, to surprise him or her with a certain pleasant unexpected activity you've secretly planned to be active at or an exciting sweet present, anything that might intrigue or surprise your soulmate.
You are free to use your imagination at full swing and express your creative self within a relationship. Arrange a surprise on your partner's birthday, change your style or behaviour in a humorously originally creative way, start a pillow fight with him when he's in a naughty mood, reveal your light stripteasing skills when he's speaking with his Mum...
The list of examples is inexhaustible and so totally endless. It grants you a splendid opportunity to behave creatively in a relationship in order Routine-the-dirty-animal not to devour your passion or genuine attraction to each other. Needless to say that creativity is especially appreciated in the sexual 'sphere' of any relationship. Make sure your creativity suits the mood of your partner though and that it won't look or sound like something slightly shocking or who knows maybe even unpleasant.
