Relax. Writer's block usually occurs when you've been trying too hard to write. Take a walk. Visit places that you haven't been to in a long time and just sit. Take a pen and paper along for when you get bursts of inspiration. Just relax.

There a lot of places on the internet that offer prompts. These are usually one word or one phrase that are meant to inspire you. Just pick one and start writing. Or, you can generate a list of random thoughts on a piece of paper and pick one of those.

Don't stay in your room or at any one place. Ask your girlfriend if you're stuck on a relationship. If your writing revolves around a setting which is inspired by some real world location, then try to visit that place. This way, new ideas are bound to come.

Listening to some of your favorite music can spark up a familiar mood and inspire you to write. Just try to clear you mind, lay back and listen.
