    Do you think it's possible to get your 'boyfriend' back?

    With years of marriage, kids and more responsibility than ever imagined, many couples find it very hard to get back to the way things were when they first started dating. But then again, does anyone really ever get back to that "girlfriend"/"boyfriend" phase?

    No. After years of marriage and kids, it won't be like the early days of dating, but if you work at it you can still reignite the flame.

    Possible, but why would you want to? Dating is such an ackward stage. I feel much more comfortable and relaxed in marriage.

        Yes. If you make time for your spouse and try new things to bring back the excitement in your relationship.

        Relationships are vital to being a great parent. Bedtimes are not only good for the kids, they're good & necessary for the relationship too

          Yes. If you make time for your spouse and try new things to bring back the excitement in your relationship.

          Dating is the easy part, adult relationships that are fun are better.

            I think it is important to keep your marriage spiced up and is not always easy to do. It is so easy to get lost in the day-to-day tasks and be so busy that all of a sudden you have grown apart and forgotten how to have fun.
