Creating Excitement

Relationships......Let's talk about the relationship with our spouse/partner. Hung and I have been together for over 16 years and married for over 4 of those years. Sure, we find it a challenge at times to keep things exciting. Unfortunately for a lot of people it is easier to find someone new and exciting rather than create that within their committed relationship.

Our 1st Date Night

We realized that it had been a loooooong time since we went on a real date, and we had been talking about "Date Night" for a while but never took the action. Since we have been married we did make a tradition that every year on our anniversary we would travel somewhere and have a honeymoon. In September 2010 we decided to create a new tradition called "Date Night." Every month we have 2 nights picked out, and each of us get to plan one of those dates. We have been on 5 dates since then and it has been amazing!! It gives us a chance to really express our love for one another....it doesn't always have to cost alot of money either. If you really listen everyday to what your spouse says you will pick up on great ideas for dates, the element of surprise is EXCITING!!!
