Forgo the dinner and a movie and go straight to really connecting with your spouse.
Love is not self-sustaining but requires constant maintenance. We can often get stuck on surface-y conversations but need to work hard at diving deep into heart level conversations. Don’t talk about your kids soccer schedules, your crazy boss, or your never ending to-do list. Instead, take these questions with you on your next date night and take turns answering them. Spend time listening to your spouse’s heart and soul.
