In an effort to learn all I can on relationships, I often read magazines, articles, and books about the topic. One of the key areas I see repeated over and over is that to have a successful marriage you must carve out couple time. The mere fact that so much advice is centered on this one concept makes me wonder why men and women just don't get it!

When you were dating you carved out time for each other, no matter the pressures of everyday life. You could not fall in love without that time together. This begs the question; don't you think to sustain that love that you must also make time for one another even now?

Shared activities and interest are the perfect starting point for couple time. You both enjoy gardening - so garden together! The only requirement is that you must spend time "together". This means that activities such as the movies are out, however; a sit down dinner without the kids and then a movie is fine. You must be able to converse and feel close to the other person. Shared activities build a connection that is difficult to break. However; what if you don't have any shared interests? In these cases it's even more important for you to commit to spending time doing things with your spouse. Each of you should do things that the other enjoys. You never know what you might like until you've tried it.

Make a point to share at least one activity every week. You don't have to do the same things every week. Add some variety to spice it up. You'll also want to swap it up from week to week, taking turns on whose activity to try that week. Keep it up until you find something that you both enjoy. This will be part of the foundation upon which your marriage is built.
