Date Night Dilemma

The busier we get sometimes the harder it is to prioritize the things that are truly important. And sometimes our relationships suffer the most.

So many things have a pull on our time. Work, kids, school. We can often assume that that important relationship will still be there waiting for us we need it. The truth is relationships take work to grow and to maintain and to keep healthy. That goes for friends, family and our partners.

So how to keep that relationship healthy? We have to give it attention and what it needs to thrive. Communication is crucial but like people, all relationships are different and what they need to thrive will vary. Some partners love spending time together doing nothing, others being active. Whatever your relationship needs you have to make it a priority. Put it on the schedule. Whether its a morning date at your favorite cafe, or hitting the rock climbing gym after work. Yes, if you have small children at home finding time where it can be just you and your partner can be difficult but you and your partner need to find time connect to each other as people and as partners, not just as parents.

Make time to be with those you love. Your heart and your life will be richer for it.
