Things to do with your boyfriend can be a lot of fun if you do them right. But sometimes it can be difficult to figure out what to do. The actual truth of what couples do when bored is not as pleasant as you think it is (we will talk about that some other time). But instead, I want to answer another question that can lead to a more helpful answer, it is about “What can couples do when bored at home?”. Some things are pretty usual that a lot of couples are advised to do. Just because they are usually, does not mean that they’re boring, or generic in any way. On the contrary, they are fun things, which is one of the reasons why they’re done ‘usually’. There are so many amazing things you can do, you have no idea! Seriously! I will show you what exactly those things are, and not just things to do with your boyfriend at home, I will show you that and much more.
Season vs Activity – Tips
As you already know a certain season can impose on your activities. Now it is the same with activities/things you want to do with your boyfriend (I’m not talking about sex). Tip numero uno: Before you decide to do something, consider the weather, and the season. Let’s say a good fall activity would be a long walk somewhere in nature. Or a good winter activity would be snow fighting, building a snowman, or making snow angels. Tip number two: Try to make the most out of the things that the season offers. Example: The winter has snow (in most countries), so why not take the chance to do something fun? Something romantic would be going out while it is lightly snowing, even dancing, why not?
General Things to Consider When in a Relationship
A relationship is not only built by the activities you do with your partner. It is deeper than that, so before we jump into the fun, sweet, romantic activities you can do with your partner, you have to consider a few things my dear friend: Communicating with your partner. It is about expressing and sharing things with your partner. Communicating doesn’t necessarily have to be verbal (though it is a good form of sharing things); You can do it through little gestures and actions. The thing is to get and give understanding. Understand one another. A healthy relationship is made out of two understanding people, or two people at least TRYING to understand one another. Give gifts to one another. It is part of those little gestures I mentioned above. It is also a form of communication. I wrote “give” on purpose, you don’t have to just buy something expensive (though there’s nothing wrong with that), you can make something for them and show affection through the gift you’re giving. Show that you care about them through certain gestures. Gifts, telling them you’re there for them, hugging, kissing, a cup of coffee out of nowhere because you know they’re tired, a little help when you can, etc. It is in everything that you do the indication that you do care (or not) about them. 13 key ways Tell your parents you have a boyfriend.

This is one of the things you can do with your boyfriend at night. It can be a super fun experience. The music will make you feel some type of way, you will be surrounded by strangers, and you’ll have a precious person beside you. Trust me!
21. Museums
Visiting museums can be a good day activity. Learning, and feeding your curiosity with your partner is one of the best things you can do together. Plus, you will get to see super cool things, and learn things you didn’t know before. No wonder it is usual…
22. Long walks
Long walks should be done very often actually… The sound the snow makes when stepping on it, the colorful leaves of Autumn, the flowering trees on a lovely Spring day, and the amazing sunsets of summer. Plus, it doesn’t matter what time it is (day or night), a long walk is a good idea!
23. Shopping/Thrift Shopping
You can go shopping during the day so that you’ll have time to do other things at night. Choose clothes for one another, you also get to know more about one another’s tastes, choose clothes for one another, and you’ll have a good memory whenever you see the item that the one you love chose for you.
24. Go to a park
Parks are amazing at whatever time of the year, whatever time of the day or night, except when it’s too windy, it can get a little messy; Otherwise, a park never lets you down.

Amusement park, go, become children again, I don’t care. Just go!!

27. Plant something together
This can be done whether you have a garden or not. Plant whatever you wish to plant, it will be amazing to watch it grow, and take care of it. It will be a good reminder of your connection. I’d suggest you do it in the daytime, however, if you feel like planting something at night, go for it!
Fun Outdoor Activities You Can Do With Your Boyfriend

43. Get on a motorboat
This one might be a little bling blingy, but I’d recommend such a ‘ride’ for the ones that can afford it. The sea, the wind, the sun, and the energy will get smiles on your faces.
44. Travel by ship somewhere
I know, this might sound a little crazy. But it is a new experience you don’t get to have every day.

Get that competitive spirit on and get that game started, in the middle of the night, yes!
Other Activities (that include other people)
52. Couples massage
You can massage one another, but the professional one is another type of business, you know.
53. Double date
It is good to have company, discuss and hear other topics besides the usuals. Choose the people carefully if you want to have an awesome time.
54. Visit a place together
You can visit each other’s hometowns, or just find another place and explore everything you can.
55. Bowling
It is once again to turn your competitive spirit on. A good idea would be to include punishments for the losers, or even rewards for the winner.
56. Watch a game
Go watch a football game, a basketball game, any game you like really.
57. Stand-up comedy
This can go in two ways, and it completely depends on the content of the stand-up that will be presented to you. But it is definitely worth giving it a try.
58. Learn a new activity together
Dancing, singing, painting, you name it! You can find online courses, but you can also attend them physically. It is a healthy sign to engage in new activities with your partner.
59. Taking dancing classes
Cha cha cha baby! It is a good idea to do it if you both are into the idea. At times men don’t like dancing classes, so advice from me would be to not insist sis.
60. Ice Skating
Those fallings, those hand holdings will help in giving you a beautiful time to remember.
61. Karaoke
If you don’t feel like singing, it can be fun to listen to other people give it a try. However, you know, I know, everyone knows that karaoke is a lot better when you participate.
Wild things to do with your boyfriend
62. Hitchhike
Got your boyfriend by your side, it’s time for an adventure! Would not recommend this at night though…
63. Graffiti
As you may know, graffiti is illegal if you don’t take permission from the institutions to display a certain art in a certain place. So if you’re both into art, you can take permission, grab those cans/paint/brushes, and get the art started.
64. Skiing
It is a fun, wild activity for sure. If you’re new to it, it’ll take a little bit of time until you get the hang of it, however, having your partner by your side while doing so, will be so much better, fun, and easier.
65. Give prank calls
It is on the list of the wild things because giving prank calls is not your ordinary type of thing. Go crazy, prank them b*tches!
Cheap and Easy Things to Do With Your Boyfriend

68. Do or watch TikTok videos together
Tiktok is fun if you do it the right way, or if you watch the right videos. You can find helpful things, you can watch something funny if you feel like laughing, or you can accept the challenge and do a TikTok together.
