Date Night
You've Been Waiting All Week For This
Date Night! Probably the most anticipated night of the week for those who take time to make time for each other. Making time for each other is always an important part of how you grow together and how you stay together.
You've been waiting all week for this. Tonight you're going to go out and have some fun together, just the two of you. If you've got kids you get a sitter. If you've got worries (who doesn't) you set them aside for the night and let loose. Tonight is your night and you want to make the most of what may be very precious time that is hard to come by.
What to do tonight?!
The list of ideas is endless. What you do depends on the type of date night you want to share.
Are you feeling like an intimate, romantic evening, just the two of you?
Would you rather feel a rush of adrenaline as you share something fun and exciting?!
Maybe you're low on cash but still need to enjoy some together time?
The most important thing is that you make time to do something together.
Anytime you see or hear about something you'd like to try or you think your partner would enjoy add it to the list. Then, after a rough Monday at work make a date for Friday and compare your lists. Take turns picking something from each others list.
Make a plan
Date night can be once a week, once a month, or whenever you want, but here's a tip... if you don't plan it you probably won't do it. This isn't about "hey, wanna do something?" when you're bored.
Make a plan, pick a day, pick something to do - even if that means throwing a dart at a list of choices - and do something together. Schedule it. This is your night.
Been There, Done That!
Here's a partial list of the nights out I've shared with my wife over the years. I still "ask her out" even though we've been married for over seven years!
