Being less excited or interested in your significant other’s interests doesn’t mean you don’t love them enough. It is normal to have different interests and hobbies. But how do take more interest in your lover’s hobbies that make you bored? If you keep ignoring or cancelling on them, you get involved in a fight you never intended to and then get accused of not loving them anymore. Here is a list of things you can do about this: –

  1. You can perform the task yourself and see if it interests you. Determine what gives them joy in doing this particular task and work on it. Maybe you will enjoy doing it too.
  2. Appreciate their choice. If this particular interest makes your partner happy, be happy about it yourself. Don’t undermine them only because you find it boring. If she is a good painter, appreciate her art and talk about it. They want nothing more than you taking an interest in their life.
  3. Construct a rule that is favourable for both parties. If a normal loving way doesn’t work, establish a system where both your feelings are considered. For example, every Sunday both the partner will perform a task that one of them likes and the other one doesn’t. This way both your interests is respected.
  4. Help them complete the same task you don’t like. Even if you hate doing it, for the sake of your loved one you can surely keep aside your disinterest and help them. Be the bigger person and do something good for them.

If you follow these rules, you will surely manage to respect your girlfriend’s interests and pay more attention to them. If you really love them and wish to have a healthy relationship, doing this should be nothing for you. And if you succeed, your bond with them will only grow stronger.
