For more ideas on how to keep your relationship interesting, 19 couples spill what they do together that isn't considered "normal."

The dance

This one is too adorable. This Redditor and his wife have a dancing ritual whenever he comes home from work.

They do a little dance while singing the Bollywood song, "Mera Piya Ghar Aaya" (My love has reached home). Then, they hug and greet.

The kissing monster

"We have a 'Kiss Monster' (spoiler alert: it's me with a blanket over my head), that visits my SO every now and gives him loads of kisses before slinking off again into the night.

We have never acknowledged that I am in fact, the Kiss Monster." - u/u/FinSonic

The inverted kiss

FOX

"Instead of kissing the lips, one of us surprises the other by opening their mouth big and covering the other party's puckered up lips. It's like kissing the void. It feels really [expletive] uncomfortable and it's hilarious. She always does it to me when I'm expecting a kiss." - u/ask-design-reddit

The clothespin

This couple has a 17-year running game of stealthily pinning a clothespin to the other's clothes. You never know when the other person will strike! There could be no clothespin for months, and then bam, one is in your armpit.

The bread

Giphy | Bounce

"Well, I just wrapped her up in a brown blanket, rolled her back and forth in bed and told her 'Shhhhh be bread, it's okay, just be bread, shhhh, loaf-girlfriend, it's okay to become bread' while she cackled and screamed 'I DON'T WANT TO BE BREAD.'" - u/ThirdFloorNorth

The hoot

"We hoot like owls at each other and call each other 'hooter' as pet names. It started shortly after we got together and neither of us can remember how. But we'll be sitting in silence, each doing our own thing, and one of us will just say "hoot!' into the quiet, and the other replies in kind. It's sort of a 'Doing good? Me too. Love you.' thing." - u/lillithfair4

The game of rock, paper, scissors

CBC

This couple invented a game of rock, paper, scissors with kissing! Basically, mouth closed is rock; mouth open is paper, and tongue sticking out is scissors. They play at random times so they can catch each other by surprise and win!

The racecar

Giphy | One Chicago

"Dated a Swede for a few years. When he taught me how to say I Love You in Swedish, Jag Älskar Dig, I remembered how to pronounce it by saying it as Jog Racecar Day. For the rest of our relationship whenever we wanted to say 'love you' or would give each other cards etc, we would just say Racecar." - u/vinoKwine

The detectives

"Sometimes when I answer the phone I become Detective Tony Pepperoni, and he's Cheesy Steve and the Saucy Boys. There's never really any warning, it just kinda happens and it gets pretty intense." - u/MiaKatRio

The penis drawings

Giphy | The Office

LOL. This Redditor doesn't remember how this started, but they hide the same penis drawing for the other one to find. When he went on a hunting trip with his friends, his girlfriend put one in his suitcase for him and his friends to find.

The yawn

FOX

"My BF and I have an on-going thing were we poke a finger in the other’s gaping maw when they’re halfway into a yawn. Whoever has accomplished this most recently is the alpha partner. It feels like an incredible violation to have done to you, but doing it so incredibly fun that we allow it." - u/EmergencyLychee

The mating dance

Giphy

"We have a mating dance that has gotten increasingly elaborate in the decade we have been together. Example moves: slapping one's own butt, moving one's arms like a choo choo train, one handed clapping. Some of the moves go out of fashion year to year, but we have a significant repertoire." - u/deleted

The WYK rule

This stands for "would you kindly." If one person says it, the other person must do what is asked, no matter what. It could be something benign or something very silly. It works for them because they trust one another to not abuse it for evil.

The Exorcism.

NBC

"Sometimes he puts his mouth over my nose and blows, causing me to make a horrific, monstrous sound of air coming through my nasals and out of my mouth. We call this The Exorcism.

It’s gross and weird but I love that we can be gross and weird together." - u/lululemonkush

The pet names

Giphy

"Me and my girlfriend have started using very random and increasingly complex pet names when we answer a phone call from one another. It's so often now that sometimes i'll forget and in public loudly answer with 'hello my Persian tropical ice cream sweety watermelon minx.'" - u/joeyboii23

The belly rub

Giphy | Saturday Night Live

This couple loves the feeling of their skin touching. So when they were on a hike, they were being silly and decided to lift their shirts up and rub their bellies together. Well, at that moment, a man came around the corner on his bike and saw them!

The cat

"We make up very elaborate stories about our cats lives.

'Where’s Big Cat?'

'Oh, she’s in Taipei today consulting with the Ukrainian Ambassador about the current standing of the silver industry. She’ll be back later though because tomorrow she’s chartering to Mars at 0600.'" - u/undergroundramen

The sneeze

Giphy

"Whenever he sneezes, I shout as aggressively as I can SHUT UP. To which he responds even louder, YOU SHUT UP. This is everywhere. At home, in public, it doesn’t matter. It’s gotten to the point where I consciously have to stop myself from shouting at anyone else who sneezes." - u/SoManyStarWipes

The smush

"I literally make my boyfriend lay on top of me completely pretty much face to face. The pressure comforts me and I’m warm and he’s still touching me without getting too hot." - u/that_ginger18
