You guys, I’ve been seeing this “love challenge” thing all over the internet, and I figured, why not give it a shot? So, I grabbed my partner, and we decided to embark on this 30-day adventure together. I was kinda skeptical at first, like, can a bunch of daily tasks really make a difference? But hey, I’m all for trying new things.
Day 1: Getting Started
First, we sat down and looked up what this challenge was all about. We found a bunch of different versions, but most of them had similar ideas, so we picked a list. We made a promise to stick to it for the whole 30 days, no matter what. It felt kinda cheesy, but also exciting, you know?
Days 2-10: Little Things, Big Impact
The first week or so was all about small gestures. Like, we made each other breakfast in bed one day. Another day, I left a little love note in his lunch bag. We had to give each other a compliment every day, which sounds easy, but sometimes you really have to think about it! These little things started to add up, and I gotta say, it was kinda nice.
Days 11-20: Deeper Connections
Then the challenges started getting a bit deeper. We had to have a “no phones” night and just talk to each other, which was actually amazing. We talked about our dreams, our fears, stuff we hadn’t talked about in ages. We also had to do something adventurous together, so we went on a hike. And we had to write each other letters, expressing our feelings, like really get them out on paper.
Days 21-30: Keeping the Spark Alive
The last ten days were focused on keeping things fresh. We had to plan a surprise date night for each other. We cooked a new meal together. We even tried dancing, which was hilarious because we’re both terrible dancers. We had to recall a time that one of us helped the other out and thank them for it. And, of course, there were some physical intimacy challenges thrown in there, too.
The Results
Honestly, after the 30 days, I was surprised at how much closer we felt. It wasn’t like some magical transformation, but the daily effort made a real difference. We were more affectionate, more patient, and more in tune with each other’s needs. It’s like we rediscovered things about each other that we’d forgotten.
- We laughed more. Some of the challenges were just plain silly, and it was fun to let loose and be goofy together.
- We communicated better. We got into the habit of actually talking about our feelings, instead of just letting things build up.
- We appreciated each other more. Taking the time to do something nice for each other every day made us realize how much we mean to each other.
So, yeah, I’d definitely recommend giving the love challenge a try. It’s not a cure-all, but it’s a great way to invest in your relationship and keep the spark alive. Plus, it’s kinda fun! You might just surprise yourself with how much you learn about your partner and yourself along the way.
