Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Sometimes when people who are already friends decide to take their friendship to the next level and date each other, its not as easy as they think it will be. It may be a little awkward to talk about things you used to talk about when you were just friends, because now there is that added pressure of being boyfriend and girlfriend. A similar thing happened to me one time, and what used to be fun and interesting phone calls between the two of us suddenly turned into 30 second conversations consisting of him asking, 'what time should I pick you up at?' You really need to make sure that you continue to cultivate the friendship aspect of your relationship. Instead of going on dates to the movies or out with a group of friends, suggest somewhere where you guys can talk, and where you would be forced to engage in conversation, like to a small little cafe, a picnic, on a walk, or even something like cooking together. These activities will bring you closer together as a couple and will get you talking again. And don't just call each other to set up dates, call him 'just because' and strike up a conversation. Maybe after a TV show you both watch ends, you can call him and talk about what just happened on the show. Communication is important in any relationship, and I really hope you are able to get talking as much as before you started going out. It will really help the relationship. Make sure you try the different dates too, its easy for a guy, or a girl for that matter, to get bored in a relationship that always consists of the same things, but changing things up all the time will keep that 'new relationship spark' alive! Good luck, let me know if you need anything else!
