465: DATE NIGHT
“Live less out of habit and more out of intention.” —Anonymous
While it is an element of marriage, sharing life is no substitute for dating your spouse — it requires an element of intentionality. And dating isn’t just sharing a meal – for something to be considered a date, there must be a romantic interest that is expressed.
If it could be mistaken for something you’d do with your sibling, don’t call it a date.
If there’s no interaction or connection between the two of you, you’re missing the point of dating – pursuit of your spouse in an intimate way.
