Vincent and Valerie will do their date night earlier today because they want to be part of the crazy crowd at night time. They go to Perry’s, one of their favorite restaurants, in the morning.

Why date night?

Before we started dating, I would say get away from the kids, try new things, and spend quality time with my best friend. Rather than just hanging out simultaneously, I like spending quality time with you.

You used to ask me where I wanted to go for a date night, but then you started planning things for yourself. Can you tell me what changed your mind? My wife never knows what she wants to eat, so I consider that when finding a restaurant and presenting options. Sometimes she likes them, sometimes she doesn’t, but I try to give her options.

What is Date Night

Date night is not just about eating. Sometimes it includes lunch or breakfast. However, one of our favorite dates was one day when we did dream walking and put a picture of the things we desire for our lives in the future.

You should have a common goal with your spouse and spend time together doing fun things. Don’t be so structured, and play everything because something will happen.

How to Plan a Date Night

We don’t always have the resources to do everything we want to do, so we’ve had a date night in bed, watched movies, played games, talked about the future, taken a nap, and all those things are right there in the house. We had planned a trip, but it rained. We had a night at home and watched a movie with food from one of our favorite restaurants.

You can have a picnic right on your living room floor or go outside in your yard and do things. We like to save money, so we go to this restaurant in the daytime because the Lux Special is twice the price.

You have to decide to spend time with each other, not just watch TV together every night. I guarantee you will have a blessed life if you plan something to do together.

The Importance of Date Night

Date nights are significant to me because we get to spend intentional quality time talking to, looking at, and into one another. We plan things together, find out what’s on our minds, and build our friendships. We have fun and pretend to listen to others’ conversations.

When you start dating your spouse, you must get to know them all over again. This is because you’re not used to talking or spending time with them, and sometimes they’re just dealing with something.

I thought you would say you don’t think your spouse will cheat on you, but it depends on where they are in their walk. We love getting to know each other and spending time with other couples.

Some people don’t enjoy spending time together because they haven’t invested enough time in one another. If you’re conversing with some ladies and guys, you learn they don’t do date nights.

Advice for a Date Night

You can still have a date night or date day at the house. I’m just saying plan it and make time to spend time with one another and focus on one another. Talking about life and dreams with your partner is not okay.

Magic happens when you enter their presence and listen to their hearts. In the end, you will find that spark is lost or you will need to keep kindling the flame.

I love to hear my wife talk because she’s talkative and expresses her feelings well. Because of her, I’ve learned how to express my feelings and think through them more, so I can say what’s in my heart.

I learned that my husband wasn’t raised the way I was raised, and he doesn’t think the way I think. We had to learn from one another, and if you allow them to communicate with you, you may see why they are the way they are.

When we get into relationships, we must learn how to overcome our differences. My husband is gentler than I am and doesn’t get worked up about things like I sometimes do.

I’m a very emotional person and like to talk about my feelings, but my husband is calmer and assesses the situation before reacting. He has taught me how to stay calm and at my place.

Recalibrate the Relationship

As I said before, I know what she might not like. However, I also know what she likes; the more we are together, the more I learn.

We’ve been together for 24 years, and things have changed. My husband is open and communicative in a way he wasn’t when we first met. It’s the greatest gift I could have received from a spouse.

We’ve taken down our guard and decided to let this person love us for who we are. We had to get to the point where he felt comfortable revealing those parts of himself to us. That’s how we could talk about things on a different level.

I can trust her with my emotions, pain, faults, and shortcomings, and she doesn’t think less of me for them. And he doesn’t have to wait for me by hand and foot.
