Why Date Nights?

Why Date Nights?

 There is something about "dating" that creates a sense of
magic in a relationship.  Most people know they should have date
nights but don't really think about all the great reasons why they
should.

Here are some positive influences a date can have on your
relationship whether you are still courting or have been wed for 50
years.

* You tend to take some extra effort on your appearance, making
sure you are crisp and clean for your mate and the public you are
going to face. Looking good tends to make you feel good.

* When you make time for a date, you generally become more relaxed.
Too much tension can cause havoc in relationships.

* Gets you out of a rut.  Relationships that rarely try anything
new are bound to get stale.  A variety of date nights keep things
fresh and interesting.  Boredom is a common cause for many divorces.

* Good conversations are difficult to have in five-minute
increments. Dates allow you to have an hour or more of
uninterrupted time to communicate on a deeper level.  Don't make
the mistake, however, of trying to resolve conflicts on dates.
Date nights shouldn't turn into a weekly gripe session.

* Experiences you share as a couple naturally draw you closer
together. The more things you do together, the more compatible you become.
