I would suggest that you need more passion this relationship. It could be sexual passion (very beneficial in a romantic relationship) or it could be a shared passionate commitment to a goal or an activity.

What do you desire in life? What makes you light up with excitement? Do the two of you share a common passion? If not, can you discover or create one?

Sensible planning and smoothing out day-to-day interactions are helpful and necessary, but they can't replace the joy and energy you can get out of sharing something that makes you both feel more alive.
