My husband is one of those who doesn’t find a need for a regular date night. His view of things has been that we spend time with each other every day, so why would we spend extra money to go out? Especially when his wife is a phenomenal cook – “just look at my waistline”, he says, patting his mid section.
At first, I was disappointed that he found no need for a date night. The longer time went on, the more irritated I became.
I really wanted that date night.
I took his lack of interest in the date night personally. I felt bad for myself when I heard friends speak of their date nights. I loathed all the stay at home date night ideas on Pinterest because I wanted an extravagant, out on the town, fancy dress wearing, date night.
So, I had a pity party.
I was miserable in that little pity party.
Then I started hating that pity party.
So I took action against that pity party.
Wouldn’t you know, I learned a thing or two when I started looking at the big picture and not so much on what I wanted from my husband.
