4 Rules of Dating For Couples

You may be wondering why “DATING” is the focus for couples? Well…there’s this crazy assumption that once you’re “committed”, for some strange reason the joy of dating goes flying out the window. I’m here to tell you, “It’s Not.”. I’m also here to share how dating can be a rejuvenating aspect of your relationship.

4 RULES OF DATING:

1. TALK TO EACH OTHER. Whether you’ve been in a relationship for 1 month, 1 year or 10 years, you have to continue to talk to each other about your personal needs and desires. This information doesn’t come to us by osmosis. Remember when you first met? Remember how you playfully talked to each other to increase intimacy and pleasure? Communicating never goes out of style.
2. SHARE TAKING THE LEAD. Take turns asking each other out on a date. Many of us live by the “To Do List” and the “Crackberry”, so why not add pleasure to the schedule. In our fast-paced society, a spontaneous date may never come, so take control of your romance needs and schedule a date with your partner at least 2 times per month.
3. EVERYTHING’S ON THE TABLE. Be open to learning new things about each other. Take the opportunity to explore fantasies, expand boundaries and go on new adventures.
4. DON’T ASSUME & DON’T BE PREDICTABLE. As your partner is joyfully planning your date, don’t jump to conclusion about what you’re going to do. Resist the urge to tell your partner what to do. Allow yourself to be surprised and pampered. Rule #1 and Rule #3 give your partner a good idea of you’re desires, so now allow them to bring it to life.
