Theme night

Have you ever had a night where you felt like being Italian? What about Greek? Well this date night allows you to indulge in those desires! For this theme date night, all you need to do is choose the theme and then make decisions from there. This theme does not necessarily have to be a country, it could be themed around a movie, or superheroes, or anything that gets you both excited for the date!

The goal, once the theme is chosen, is to then choose a dinner recipe and movie to watch at home that follow with this theme. You could also add decorations, music, etc. to really help get the feeling for where you are going to be spending your evening. Make sure you choose the theme before the date night so that you have plenty of time to get everything you need!

Don’t Forget to Reconnect!

For this date, the re-connection activity should ideally happen during dinner. It is easy to get down in the dumps about your circumstances; stress can lead you to negative thoughts, which can enter us into a nasty cycle. To reconnect during this date, start a conversation over dinner going back and forth between each other listing things that you are grateful for and see how long you can go! These should be meaningful, and could possibly lead to further discussion and reminiscing together. The idea is to help focus on the good, even amongst the crazy, and appreciate together all that you have in order to make life look a little more positive.
