The beginning of every new year is a time for personal resolutions. Maybe you want to exercise more or eat healthier. While individual resolutions are the norm, have you ever thought about making resolutions for yourself within your relationship? Below are some options.
- Be Healthy
When in a relationship you may slip into some unhealthy habits, such as eating at restaurants too often or forgoing the gym. As a couple, you may want to examine your habits. If you find that you’d both like to be healthier you can make it a point to exercise together or build healthy activities into your relationship such as hiking. It is a great way to connect with nature as well as each other. Another option is cooking healthier foods to enjoy together several times a week.
- Maintain Other Relationships
When falling in love you often want to spend a lot of time together. While this is fun, it is also important to maintain other relationships with family and friends. The key people in your life want to see you. They deserve some of your time and attention too. They are the ones who helped you develop into the wonderful person you are!

- Maintain Individual Interests
Who you are as a person is what attracted your significant other to begin with. It is essential to your overall well-being and your relationship to be you. This includes maintaining some of your individual interests. Continue doing the things you enjoy. They are a part of what makes you unique.

If you are interested in making some relationship resolutions this year, it is important to talk to your partner. Maybe they will want to join you and you can make the relationship resolutions together.
