Whimsical Date Night V.1 | Page 29

L Listen: Listen uninterruptedly to your spouse, and try not to mentally check out while they are speaking. M Mentors: Couples with "experience" in mar- riage that would always tell you the truth espe- cially when you don't want to hear it, couples that hold you accountable to your spouse and marriage. Couples that encourage you both by their exemplary marriage to keep fighting and working on yours, because theirs is one of the many testimonies of the joy of being happily married. Music: Even though the mix-tape is very much a thing of the past, making playlists and shar- ing them with your loved one is still incredibly romantic. Curate one based on your favorite love songs or even a mixed genre of songs then have a listening party together. 19 Whimsical DATE NIGHTS
