5 Ways to Spend Quality Time With Someone

Quality time is focused on being together and expressing love through designated personal care and attention. When it comes to love languages, it’s critical to do everything possible to make your partner or loved one feel appreciated.

So, if you've been wondering how to spend quality time with your loved one, you're in luck. Here are five ways to express your concern and feelings through quality time together.

1. Try New Things

Sometimes everything in a long-term relationship becomes routine. So, to keep the spark alive, trying new things together is one way to go about it. There are a lot of creative activities to look into doing as a couple – or with friends. They’ll re-energize the relationship, and give you both a different outlook.

2. Go On A Weekend Getaway

Spending one-on-one time with your loved one on vacation is one of the best ways to spend quality time together. A few days spent in a different location can transform a relationship. Traveling together creates beautiful memories – and this facilitates bonding. Fortunately, you can always start by vacationing in a nearby village or town while planning to travel the world together. How romantic is that.

3. Have A Movie Marathon

This is inexpensive and never gets old. All you have to do is pick out a series of movies that you want to watch together – and do just that. Although going out to the cinema has its appeal, watching a movie at home together on the bed or couch with some homemade popcorn sounds just perfect too. And you won’t have to listen to other people munching on their popcorn either.

4. Play A Game Together

An excellent way to connect with someone. Whether a video game, board or card game, this is one fun way to spend quality time with your loved one. Playing games together helps you bond with your partner: developing teamwork, promoting healthy competition – and giving you a lot to discuss.

5. Keeping Fit Together

Working out together is a healthy way of spending quality time with your loved one. With the support of a partner, exercising becomes more fun. You get to motivate each other and strike up several conversations while you’re at it. Who knows where working up a sweat will take you!

Conclusion

Spending quality time with a loved one can be both romantic and platonic. However, this doesn't make it less important in a relationship. By simply sharing your presence with someone, you get to affirm your love and lend your support. This is a visible reminder of your love, so make sure that you dedicate time to each other.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
