Though it is the best way to be protected against the coronavirus, isolating oneself inside the four corners of your home for an indefinite time can be stressful. Worse is, no matter how much we try, going back to the way it was before doesn't seem to happen anytime soon.
With everything that's happening in the world now, it's tempting to always look at the negative side. But experts say, it could only make things worse. So, better turn your eyes towards the silver lining instead.
One of the best things about being quarantined is the opportunity given to everyone to spend more time with their other half. Before the pandemic, most people don't have enough time to bond with their partners. This quarantine gives us the chance to alter that. But how can we make the most out of this?
CONVERSE AND ASK EACH OTHER QUESTIONS
Learning new things from your partner is a never-ending process. So use this extra time to know your loved one even more. You can do that by asking questions to each other. Dig deep into his or her feelings. Surely you will get to understand the heart of the person you love even more.
Make your conversation more interesting through playing a game, as advised by Elite Daily. The one who wins would have the privilege to ask a question to the loser. The choice is yours.
COOK AND BAKE TOGETHER
In a post shared by BRIDES, a study claims couples who spend more time in the kitchen to cook and bake together have a stronger relationship than those who don't. How?
Baking and cooking don't just unleash you and your partner's artistic side but it could also allow you to enjoy the presence of each other. Furthermore, it can also help you to have healthier communication with your partner. These two are your main key ingredients to have a stronger foundation for your relationship even during the quarantine.

WORK-OUT TOGETHER
Want to be closer to your husband or wife? Why not exercise with the love of your life, advised Julie Spira, an online dating expert and author of Love in the Age of Trump: How Politics is Polarizing Relationships. "Just because you're housebound, that doesn't mean you should stop working out", Spira says.
