Let’s face it relationships can get tough, and sometimes we all need a little break and time to reconnect. Whether it’s a night out, a weekend away, or an extended vacation, a little time away from it all (and focus on each other) can do wonders. If you are feeling distant from your mate and could really use some “we” time, it might just be time for a… Relation-trip!

Of course, whether you head out of town or take a stay-cation at home with your mate, spending quality time together is really what makes the difference. No matter where you are, here are five tips from Matt and Tamsen on how to make the most of your time together.
1. Leave it Behind
A getaway is just that, a way to get away from it all. In this fast paced world, it’s easy to bring it all with you, money issues, career concerns, pressure about the kids and any other everyday problem you can think of. Stop the conversation and leave those things behind, it’s the only way to ensure the perfect time to bring you both back to center.
2. Turn It Off, So You Can Turn It On
Twitter, Facebook, Linked In, Four Square – your friends don’t to know every move you and your husband/wife/lover make. Turn off the electronics, so you can turn on each other instead.
3. Take Time To Be Single
It may sound crazy on a romantic getaway, but this is the time to relive the days you used to spend getting ready to see your significant other. Take one morning of the trip and go workout, get a massage and get pampered, then get together for a date night. It will feel just like “it used to be.”
4. Stay In One Night
People always feel like they need to book up every moment of their romantic getaway, but there is nothing like dinner in, one night out of the trip. Order room service or have dinner served on the balcony of your room. Listen to some great music, crack open a bottle of wine and just be in the moment together.
5. Stock Up
Scented candles, romantic CD’s, massage oils and anything else that gets you in the mood should be the first things you pack in your suitcase. This is the time to break out all the things that you “just don’t have time for,” between work, the gym and cooking dinner every night.
