Every now and then, we browse Metafilter, a huge community questionboard, to stave off our boredom. When we came across a board titled, What Clever Relationship Hacks Have You Come Up With?, we couldn't help but be grateful that we learned something in the process of passing the afternoon hours.

This New Year, make some resolutions that will strengthen your relationship.
We love our partners. We really do. I mean, that's why we promised not to canoodle with anyone else while we seeing each other. (Talk about sacrifice.) But there's only so many nights we can stand hanging out with our "couple friends," sipping wine and sampling cheeses. We don't want to be one of those people who starts dating someone only to morph into a two-person unit, while our single friends disappear one by one. To fight off codependence, we've compiled a list of 20 things to do without your significant other. Things that will make you feel good and, most likely, improve your couple time, too.
