This isn't ...Dating your mate is SO important! This isn't just for parents of young children! We are empty nesters. We don't have children at home any more which means we are always on a date, right? NO! We still have the mundane, daily life that goes on. He has his things to do, I have my things to do. We have to be intentional to continue dating each other. Someone once told me that we don't need a marriage retreat (complete with hotel and all...) but I beg to differ! No, we don't have young children at home but we still have everyday live that can cause us to drift apart IF we don't work to keep that from happening! <br /><br />So, I say date your mate from the beginning of your marriage until the day the Lord takes one of you out of this world! (I apologize for the morbidity of that statement!) Date night is a time to invest in each other outside of normal, everyday life!! It has kept my marriage of almost 41 years vibrant and sensual and we still love one another more than the day we said, "I do!"Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915464515200570565noreply@blogger.com
