Nurturing Romance: How To Keep Dating Your Spouse

Send us your Questions or Comments and we’ll answer them on the show.

Dating your spouse shouldn't end after marriage - it should evolve into an intentional practice that keeps connection alive through every life stage. Join us as we peel back the curtain on our favorite date nights from over two decades together, revealing how these experiences have nurtured our relationship through parenthood, career changes, and life's unpredictable moments.

From the breathtaking vineyard picnics at Fainting Goats Winery where we sipped wine surrounded by autumn foliage, to intimate City Winery concerts where performers like Chante Moore sang directly to us, we explore how these special moments create lasting bonds. We also laugh about our infamous Montreal birthday surprise - a perfect example of how even "disasters" become cherished memories that strengthen relationships.

But our conversation goes deeper than just recounting experiences. We unpack why dating your partner matters, especially when life gets busy with children and responsibilities. Whether it's a surprise candle-making class followed by a boutique hotel stay, or simply restaurant-hopping through Marietta Square sampling different cuisines, these intentional moments of connection have been vital to maintaining our spark.

Perhaps most importantly, we emphasize that meaningful date nights don't require extravagance. Sometimes our most special evenings happen at our local Mexican restaurant - what matters is putting phones away, being fully present, and genuinely engaging with each other. We've discovered that finding balance and humor together during both planned dates and life's unexpected challenges creates resilience that carries through decades.
