My top date ideas are listed out below. There is one for every night for the month of February. Try doing at least four of these in the month. My recommendation during couple’s counseling at my Pembroke Pines therapy office is that couples go on a date night once a week, pretty much no matter what level they are at in their relationship.

I love them all!… mostly number 12!!!! The best part of these ideas is that they are so simple. They can be done after work even. Most of these ideas leave space for lots of communication. Good article!
