Do you go out on dates with your husband? Just the two of you, when you are not allowed to talk about kids, money, or any other daily life problems? Most marriage counselors / professionals say that it is very necessary. We try to do this, and it is great just to have fun together.

My husband and I go out for dinner every week just the two of us. We take this time to talk about the kids/ money or whatever because the kids aren't around to hear what we are saying.

We also go out about once a month with a group of friends. This is the time we just have fun. We don't talk about the kids, money or anything like that when out with friends.

That's a good arrangement antkmom, you get to spend time together and also relax and have fun with friends. Talking about kids when they can't hear you is smart, too.

Sigh.... We have actually long ago planned an outing or even just a night out with only the two of us but up to this time we havent had one yet! sigh...sigh..sigh..Guess we really have to make it the soonest.

That sounds like a great plan ANTK. Talking about them when they aren't around. That way they aren't butting in or offering their 2 cents.

We go out from time to time. It was easier when my daughter went to her dads every other weekend. He has since moved out of state.

We are planning on heading out this Friday for "alone time". Dinner and a movie. Just us!

We seldom go on dates. But I miss going out with my hubby. I will make it my goal to ask him out often. We really need it.

I heard these date nights work wonders, we don't do it, I'd love to try it and see if it has a different affect. Mind you we don't see each other that much so when we do it's all sort of newish. Would people arrange a meeting point and pretend not to know one another and then keep the act up for the whole night ?

I'm sure some people do this and have fun, but you probably need some acting skills for that. I have 0 acting skills, I can't do any kind of pretense.

okie....well i always thought going on dates was be4 getting married.....

Oh no~ you want to make sure to have alone time with your spouse once you have children, so plan on having a date night. If not every week at least every month. It is so important to get back to the two of you rather than it being the kids all the time.

I often go on date with my husband, recently am back from one trip with my husband. This is really the time we enjoy a lot, at this time we don't talk about work and family. I Am a outgoing person and I love to explore different places.

Dates are important, Though me and my GF barely manage to meet in weekdays but we make sure that we go out some place nice in weekends.. That's really important in relation ship... and married couples must go to dates

I have to ask permission from my wife first.

-F

I'm sure she won't say no

yes farce....or prolly u want to go with someone else thts the reason u need permission from her????? lolzzzzz

it is better to have dating after marriage is better.it will not create any problems.only husband and wife should enjoy that day and go for outing.In that they can share their problems and talk about their future and their children..

I think having time away together is important, even going out on a date now and again gives you the chance to be together in a different environment.

We haven't tried it yet. Most of the time we happily go out with our one year old baby. There was once a time we go out for shopping with my baby left at my mom's care, it's not comfortable, we are always thinking of her. That is why everytime we go out it is the three of us always. But the idea is very nice, I think we should try sometime.

We work at our county fair as volunteers. And we told every one there that we wanted to ride the rides and have a date. Everyone bent over backwards to let us have one. We rode every ride except for two, he won me a small stuffed animal, we walked the midway, and then we had dinner.
It was the first date we had in five years. And it was wonderful.
