273. What is date night?




Date night is about the food, lighting and atmosphere.  Bull shit.  No it’s not.

What is the importance of date night?  The importance of date night is a celebration of who you and your partner are.  You see a partnership is the joining of two people…the bringing together of two individuals to act together and move together. 

More than that, date night is the open acknowledgment and reminder of the gift that they each willingly bought into.  Date night is a time to create something unique.  Something only you two will have.  It is your chance to create memories, thoughts, and experiences to revisit in your mind when you’re day dreaming. 

The greatest part of dating and growing old with someone?  The ability to revisit your experiences and memories with one another.  Being 80 years old, regretting nothing and saying, “remember when we went to…” or “how about that time we…”  You see, there is no greater feeling than knowing that the greatest thoughts, emotions and memories of your life were shared with someone who holds your heart and world all at the same time.  It is never about the restaurant, location or what happened.  It’s about you two.  It’s always about you two.  At home, in public, in the dark, in the light, coffee shop or adult bookstore…it is always about your time together.  Always.  Date night is all about experiences…yours, theirs and together.



Men:  When you see her with her make up done or not…her hair just right or bedhead…the sweet smell that her skin naturally has (you know what I’m talking about)…that huge smile that only she has and only throws at you.  Oh yes, let her light you up…because she chose you.  I promise…she chose you.  Breathe her in, pull her close to you and hold her tightly.  She is your gift.  She is the prize that you’ve always wanted.  The greatest thing that could be given to you.  Let her know.  Acknowledge her.  Gawk at her.  Perv on her.  Protect and hold her.  She deserves it.  She is the cure.  Your greatest medicine. 

Women:  Make him feel like superman.  Impenetrable.  Bullet proof.  Remind him that of all the men you could have chosen, he was the one worth more than any other.  It’s true and because it’s true…tell him.  Smile widely at him and laugh at his jokes no matter how many times you have heard it.  Rest your head on him.  Be assertive but open.  

Did I miss anything?

  1. I love my man to grab my ass! Do that too when you kiss us. Not porno style but just enough.

  2. Miss them even thought they are sitting right next to you, when your sleeping next to them. Sharing your bed. Letting her hogg all the blankets. Making her bfast even though you know she won't be awake to eat it for hours.Wach her sleep. Love their annoying little quirks that can drive you crazy, but a good crazy. Playing video games and letting her win just to wach her overexcient for the silliest of things. Tell her you love her even though or are scared...tell her before it may be too late.

  3. that last 1 made me tear up a bit. I would wake up sumtimes to him watching me a sleep. At first I thought it was weird and creepy but not until years later when I asked him that he said I was the most beutiful thing to watch that I really did like it. I used to hate him letting me win though in the games. I know what you mean though because I used to luv waching him beat a level and get excited.

    Oh I know 1 now. He used to say that his favorite times were when I used to just wach him play video games sitting next to him. He said that it would make him feel supported when I would cheer him on or get excited for him or just engage with the story with him.

  4. Anonymous at 6:33...I love your lines...love the emotion behind them and the energy you have about it..."letting her hogg all the blankets. Making her bfast even though you know she won't be awake to eat it for hours..." I think this was really well said.

    Whenever I see her get really excited and happy...when I see her light up and smile widely at anything...I know that it brightens me up in a way that I could never explain. Words fail at how I feel when I see her excitement. It's magical. Ladies...you do that to us.
