“I treat my partner well every day, why should I surprise him?” There are many people who adhere to this thought, preferring to settle into routine. However, daily tasks, stress, day-to-day obligations, tiredness, monotony and boredom are not the best indicators of marital satisfaction. A good way to rekindle the flame in your relationship is by surprising your partner, without necessarily having a reason involved.
Surprises add a “spark”, they let the other person know that we have thought about them and that we care. Also, you don’t need huge finances or investing all your hours in it. Many times, it is the small details that make the ordinary extraordinary, which can end up coloring a cloudy day. Can’t you think of ways to surprise your partner?

How to surprise your partner without money (or with very little)
Do you want to be a better couple? Surprise is an important factor. As we have mentioned, to surprise your partner you do not need to be a millionaire, investing large amounts of money. There are small details that make a difference. Below, we list some gestures that your partner will love:
do something for her that she doesn’t know that you know that she likes it. Yes, she seems like a mouthful, but it’s simpler than she seems: she thinks of something she loves to do, see or eat that you don’t really understand. Give her a chance, and if you don’t like her, she tries not to complain. Look for the fun side, the important thing is to share moments together.
Send him a message to your partner through an unconventional means, such as, for example, through traditional mail disguised as an invoice.
Show up at work to have breakfast or lunch together.
Prepare a picnic You don’t need to spend all day in the kitchen, just your usual food is enough. Grab a blanket and a couple of candles, go out to eat.
Think of something meaningful of “old times” that you used to do when you first started dating. Do you remember how he laughed when he beat you in the car race? Take her back.
The clean car: Take your car to the car wash or wash it yourself.
Take some notes Post-its write loving messages on them and start saving them wherever your partner finds them: you will make them smile and think of you.
Take her on a date and surprise her by singing one of her favorite songs. Who cares if you sing well or not? She’ll be smiling the rest of the night!
Pick it up: Meet your partner at their train stop, bus stop, or driveway after work with a fun airport pickup sign. You will surely laugh!
A postal: If you have been away from home for work or with friends, send a postcard to your partner, even if it will arrive a long time after you have arrived home, to let them know that you thought of them too.
Host a dinner at home and invites those closest to you to celebrate with you for no particular reason. They could be your in-laws, their friends or co-workers.
How to surprise your partner on the anniversary
Celebrating your union helps fuel love within the couple. If the anniversary is a date marked by your partner, for you, or for both of you, take the opportunity to plan something special for you, that you can both enjoy:
Surprise with tickets For some event it is something that never fails. Are you a sports fan? Music lover? Do you laugh out loud at that television stand-up comedian? No matter what it is, surprise her with tickets to the next event.
Book a hotel room just for the two of us. Surprise her by booking a romantic room with a view and order a bottle from room service.
A getaway: If you have the possibility of paying for a few days of vacation for your partner and you, surprise her with the bills hidden in the book that you are reading, or in your bag so you can discover them when you are out and about. Another way to surprise her even more is to prepare your suitcases and hers yourself, and take her directly to the place of your retreat. Of course, make sure first that you will have those days off from work. You can go to the beach, to a nearby city, to a rural house.
