Hey Richard - Great post! I can just imagine trying to have a quite glass of wine with the toddlers around. In case of parents with young children - the most important thing is to afford yourself together time without the kids. get a baby sitter, one a week or twice a month, and go out, even for a walk or a trip to the supermarket - it doesn’t matter, as long as it is just you and your partner.
i dunno about all this stuff.. its too text book. what do u do when ur trying to save money and cant afford to go away for random sponataeous weekends. or ur partner doesnt like different food to what hes used to. or neither of u drink wine! lol i need stuff to do at home. were both exhausted by the end of the day. the last thing we feel like doing is being spontaneous. we end up going straight to sleep at night. :(
susana - you could plan a stay at home date with a movie you both want to see (but put some effort into setting it up so that it will feel different than watching a movie at home usually does… for example)
You could go for a walk together…instead of an exotic destination…
The whole idea is setting aside time to spend together as a couple, paying attention to each other.
My husband and myself, treat any sort of drive in the car, with the kids sleeping in the back as “our time” - fitting it into our insane schedules.
What if u jus got onto a relationship and ran out of stuff to talk about …
