Two questions:
1. Can you remember your courting days before you were
married?
2. Can you remember the last time you and your spouse
dated each other?
I bet you answered yes to question 1 and no to question
2.
It's a sad fact of married life, that couples stop dating
each other once they have been married a short while.
I believe every married couple should go on date together
at least once a month.
Why dating is good for your marriage
You get to spend some time together away from family
and friends
It keeps passion in your marriage
It can be exciting
It stops boredom setting in
It's a good excuse to dress up
It's good for your sex life
Can you remember the good old days when you spent hours
deciding what to wear and changing a million times before
opting for the first outfit you tried on? How you felt
like you had butterflies doing triple somersaults inside
your stomach. Well let the old feelings come back and
get excited and nervous.
Arrange a date with your husband and keep to it. Remember
this is a date so meet him at your chosen destination.
You could get ready at your friends house or get him
to get ready at his friends.
Take time to prepare for your date. Take the day off
work and have your hair done. Spend an hour in the bath
and pamper yourself.
Hold hands, open doors for each other and lock arms.
Be excited and enthusiastic about your date.
If you have children ask your relatives to have them
over night or better still for the weekend and make
the most of your time together.
