Frumpy at Home

Dear Quarterlife Magazine,

I’ve been with my girlfriend for two years. When I first met her, she loved getting dressed up, putting on make-up, and keeping herself in shape. Now that we have been together for a while, she seems to have lost the motivation to do much of that. Since physical attraction is a key component for most men, why do women tend to let themselves go when they get comfortable in a relationship? What are some suggestions you have to help my girlfriend start back those habits I dearly love?

    Frumpy at Home,

    After the initial honeymoon stage wears off, it's common for relationships to get into a comfortable stage. I'm guessing you may not do a lot of things that she wishes you would.

    The best way to get her old habits back is to give her a reason to. Propose a night out on the town with a fancy dinner followed by a cruise on the river, a club, a lounge, or anything that she'd need to get dressed up for. Put on some nice threads yourself to give her a treat.
