WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP DATING YOUR LOVE
Are you and your loved one thick as thieves? Hooray, I think that's great. Mine has passed through the Amayzinese a few times, but just in case you didn't know... He and I have been together for eight years and a bit. I'm sitting down with him for the ninth time at the Christmas dinner and we are now halfway through our love career. And I don't know if there's a secret to a happily ever after, but if there is, I suggest we throw it into dating. Keep dating your love forever. This is why.
1. You are together
A good start is half the work. And by together, I don't mean double dating, going out with your shared squad, or sitting at the table with mom and dad. No, you and your flame, to-gether and just the two of you. Without appendages or hangers-on, the whole lovely morning-afternoon-evening-night.
2. And you have time
I know, this is where the romantic in you gets all excited. But face it, we are busy. And if you don't make time, you'll be rushing past each other in the morning and evening like air cushions. Even though pulling that agenda isn't wild or sexy, it's smart. And anything else that bubbles up spontaneously is a big fat plus. But that date is yours anyway and in your pocket.
3. Skip the small talk
Go deep. Not always your deepest heart's desires or political nonsense, but just a little bit of next-level grocery list (yaaahaa, stolen from Rens). About you, about him (or her). Keep those mobile distraction cannons in your bag and pocket unless you want to take the cutest ussie. I recently conjured one up for a round of togetherness on Funda, that's also allowed. But further just the two of you, remember?
4. You have a plausible excuse to try that new place
Plus and plus does not equal minus here. A date is already fun in itself, but if your ambiance is sky-high joyful, then the sky is the limit. I said: the perfect alibi to
in appear at the new place to be .
5. It makes you more fun
When you do fun things together, you are more fun together. But really. Laugh, kiss, drink, be affectionate and (s)he loves you long time. Happy date night everyone.
