I often find in today's age that a lot of relationships revolve around sex. In the college scene, sex is talked about a lot and frequently, I've found that peers don't understand the purpose behind waiting to make that connection with their significant other.
1. Watch musicals.
I got my boyfriend hooked on Newsies and its the best.
2. Go out to eat.
Share your love for food with one another! My boyfriend and I are huge food people so we love trying out new places or each other's favorite places.
3. Go for a drive.
I'm telling you, we could spend HOURS doing this.
4. Roll the windows down and sing your favorite Disney duets.
He won't admit to this of course, but I'm confident in saying this is one of one of our favorites.
5. Share each other's favorite movies or TV shows.
As an LDC (long-distance couple), a lot of our time spent together tends to be downtime, so we love sharing our favorites with one another.
6. Cook dinner together (or really any meal).
This time I cooked dinner, however once he's settled into his house, I plan on taking full advantage of this activity together.
7. Walk around.
Roll with me on this one: take your significant other to Walmart or Target, wherever you'd like, even if you don't need anything. I swear you'll get an hour or so full of laughs and goofing off.
I'm not here to judge or claim one lifestyle is better than another. But based off of experience, removing sex from the center of a relationship has major payoffs.
