When you’ve been married for a while, the spark can start to fade. But don’t worry, it’s not too late to rekindle the flame!
In this post, we will explore some ways to keep the spark alive in your decade-old marriage. We will talk about how to make time for each other, how to keep things fun and exciting, and how to make each other feel loved and appreciated.
If you’re looking for ways to spice up your long-term relationship, these tips will help get you started.
Keep communicating
The first step to rekindling the spark in your decade-old marriage is communication. You need to speak, listen, and be open with each other.
A lot can change in 10 years, and if you’re not honest with each other about those changes, they can become a wedge between you. But if you’re communicative, you can work through those changes together.
Remember, it’s not about pretending that things are the same as they were 10 years ago. It’s about accepting the changes that have happened, and then working together to move forward.
Plan regular date nights
It doesn’t matter if you go out or stay in, as long as you make time for each other. This is your time to forget about the stresses of work and home life and just focus on each other.
And don’t forget to be spontaneous too. Sometimes it’s the little things that can make a date night special—a walk in the park, an impromptu trip to the movies, or even just having a late-night supper. As long as you’re together, enjoying each other’s company, it counts.
Get creative in the bedroom

You may have fallen into a bit of a bedroom rut lately. And that’s understandable—ten years of marriage will do that to you. But to keep the spark alive, that means getting creative in the bedroom.
Here are a few tips to get you started:
- Text dirty to each other.
- Fantasize about things you’ve always wanted to do together.
- Surprise your spouse with something new—a new toy, a new position, a new place to have sex.
The key is to keep things fresh and exciting so that you both continue to feel attracted to each other.
Don’t forget the little things
You know, the things that used to make your spouse feel loved and appreciated.
It might be taking out the trash without being asked, making dinner, doing the dishes, or just taking a few minutes to hug them and tell them how much you’re comforted by their presence in your life. These small gestures may not seem like much, but they can mean the world to someone who’s been in a long-term relationship.
So don’t forget to do the little things. They may be small, but they’re a big part of keeping the spark alive.
It’s not always easy to keep the spark alive in a long-term marriage, but with a little effort, you can certainly make it happen. Here are some tips to help you get started: make time for each other, talk about your day-to-day routine and what’s going on in your life, show physical affection, and be mindful of your words and actions—always think before you speak or act, and be sure not to take each other for granted.
