There was a time when you were close to your spouse. You can watch old photographs or your wedding video to rekindle old memories and talk about them.

Have a night out

Sometimes going out of your everyday atmosphere, your home, can help you to open up again. Go clubbing or go for a dinner together.

Web chatting can be an option

Chatting with your spouse on the phone or web is a very novel way to talk again. It gives you a sense of impersonality that feels like you are wooing each other again.

Your kids are subjects of conversation

If you have kids, then they are the best topics for conversation. You can talk for hours about your children, their activities, studies, hobbies etc.
