We like to spend a fair amount of time at cafes together. I work with the free wifi and she reads a book. Every 30 minutes or so I stop and take a little break and we talk a little. Sure it's not as good as doing something directly together but at least we're out of the house and not just sitting in separate rooms.
Also it's really important to try and go to bed at the same time each night - staying up until 2am while she goes to bed at 11pm definitely has a negative effect on some obvious and not so obvious aspects of your relationship.

- yankeeracer73 16y agoShe starts to wonder what I'm doing on the computer so late every night - am I working or am I chatting with someone else, or less paranoid - do I really need to be up so late and is the computer or whatever work I'm doing more important than her? Am I working as productively during the day as I can so I don't need to always stay up so late at night? Also some of the best conversations happen late at night laying in bed. If you go to bed at different times, these never really have a chance to happen. And of course one of you is getting a decent night's sleep and the other isn't, so one of you is consistently more grumpy than the other. :)
