I would like to find some activity pages maybe I could print off from the internet. Something to boost conversation in a fun way in my relationship. Any Help??
Unless your husband is a REALLY good sport, I would advise against this. Most men hate this stuff. The magazines (Cosmo, Glamour, etc. etc.) always tout this as a great idea, but I've never met a man who looked at activities like these as anything but a potential relationship land mine.
I would suggest playing board games together, going for walks, trying a new hobby before doing the activity pages.
My husband and I often talk about current events. Last night, we were watching Bobby Jindal speech on Youtube and cracking up. Congressman Gary Ackerman's rants are also hilarious.
Another fun thing to tfun conversation starters for couplesalk about is our mutual friends. We have this one friend in particular; we love him to death, but he is not exactly a very "together" guy - so we can often poke fun between ourselves at the latest antics. My husband's workmates sometimes provide good fodder for conversation, too.
There are a lot of things my husband doesn't care about - like he can care less about YA, so I don't bore him with tales of what I do here. Also, he doesn't want to take personality tests or anything of this nature. And I usually get really bored when he starts talking about some techie stuff or airplanes or what this or that person said on the RV forum. So you kinda have to figure out what your spouse takes an interest in, and go from there. Some people like playing board fun conversation starters for couplesgames or cards. Others have favorite TV shows that they watch together and then discuss. Yet others read the same book, racing to see who can finish first. All of these can provide common ground and conversation material. My husband and I really enjoy the show "Millionaire Matchmaker"; we think it's hilarious, and it always gives us ways to talk about life and relationships in general.
Well I don't know of any websites but there's a book titled......
