Why Date Nights Matter In A Happy and Healthy Relationship
Why do great couples therapists emphasize that dates are so important?
This is a question that gets asked more than you might think! So, why are date nights so important for couples and especially parents? The symbolism!! Do you make time for what’s important to you? Because your relationship with your partner should absolutely be one of the things you make time for in any way you can.
Making time for your relationship is important to the overall health and the easiest way to invest in your marriage is by going on a date so you can focus on each other’s needs!
Life gets in the way of the things that matter to us sometimes, and that is why it’s so crucial to make time for dates because this is your primary way of connecting with your partner and investing in the friendship, love, and fun that you have together.
You NEED these things so you can enjoy being in a relationship and have a reserve of good feelings to draw on when things get tough.
But most importantly, so you can remember why you’re with your partner and that they’re your teammate, the one who has your back and will be there to support you!
