For All Couples (Married or Otherwise)

isn't it?
A dinner date is nice but it is not the only solution to spending quality couple time.  There are many other ways available (and sometimes, they don't even cost anything at all!)

You could team up on doing household chores together.  Especially if you have kids, put them to bed & get around to cleaning up the kitchen together.  Whilst doing so, not only will you be able to talk & laugh, but you'll both appreciate the other better.

Or organize a movie night for the both of you. Prepare 2 cups of coffee (or tea, if you can't stand coffee) and a packet or two of chips and you're ready to snuggle up on the sofa, enjoying the movie in the comfort of your home..

You could plan to have a weekly or monthly date night, where it's just the two of you.  If you've got kids, get a babysitter to sit in & care for the kids.  Dress up and go for nice meal, followed by some shopping (actual spending not required) & maybe, if you've got the time, some ice-cream after..

This can be therapeutic as it allows you to get to know your partner and brings you back to when it was all new and lovely.  It'll allow you to fall in love with them all over again, and the afterglow..... will remain for quite awhile.. *sigh*

 There are many other ways to spend quality time together.. Maybe YOU could suggest some to us.. xoxo

use sparingly...
