When was the last time you actually went out on a date? The last time you and your baby, lovey, pumpkin, pookie, monkey, or whatever goofy name you two call each other spent time out of the house together, without work or the kids interfering in just your time together?
So many of us get caught up in the day to day grind that we forget to stop and take time to really enjoy our "mates". We take all this time trying to find the right person, and when we finally do, we don't spend the time we should on keeping the flame alive. I think especially when you have kids, you put your romantic life on hold and worry about changing diapers, registering for kindergarten, car pools, the PTA, and all the other fun things involved in being a parent. But lets be honest, we need to enjoy ourselves too. I am at fault at putting our relationship second to being a parent to a child who needs us 100% of the time and depends on us for life's basic needs, food, clothing and love. I feel guilty when I go out and really I know I shouldn't but I do. So we have to force ourselves to take couple time. We have to start making
sure to jot down a date night at least once a month on our ever growing calendars and date planners, add it to our blackberries and iphones and make sure to post it on facebook. ;) We somehow find time to update everyone from high school about little Madison's first steps and everyone at work about the affair going on behind the CEO's closed doors, so we can surely find a few hours for our significant others.If you are grinding your teeth annoyed, saying you haven't found that perfect match yet, then take the time out for yourself and bring a friend. It doesn't matter who you decide to bring along, just make sure you bring someone you can enjoy a movie and dinner with. You deserve it!
