Quality Time

Learn about Quality Time, one of the 5 love languages defined by Gary Chapman. No, quality time does not mean sitting and watching TV together! It means giving your undivided attention to your spouse by carrying on a meaningful conversation, practicing good listening skills, and limiting distractions. You can spend quality time together while doing an activity as long as your relationship and couple interaction are more important than the activity itself. Read more about quality time here.

On this date, practice the love language of quality time as you enjoy a walk or a bike ride on a local path or trail. Spending quality time together, especially if it’s one of your primary love languages, will create a stronger sense of togetherness in your marriage and intensify your friendship. Make sure to turn your phones on silent to limit distractions!

Your spouse should be the focus on this date. Enjoy the conversation, respond to each other, hold hands, be a good listener, and validate your spouse’s feelings. Talk about how your week went and how you both are doing mentally, physically, and emotionally.
