52 Dates For You & Your Mate
By David & Claudia Arp
Showers, Bubble Bath, and Candles Date
“We both work long hours. Sometimes when we come home we are totally exhausted. We wouldn’t even have the energy shower together, so here’s what we do. Fortunately, we have two bathrooms (and no children yet), so we run each other’s baths in separate bathrooms. We add scented bath oil beads or bubble bath – whatever we know our mate likes. We also light candles for each other. Votive candles work great. We turn on soothing music and know we are both in for a relaxing treat.
“It’s fun to indulge in the quietness of a warm bath that someone else has prepared for you. We’ve even decided it’s okay if the warm water saps what little energy we might still have. This is a We’re Just Too Tired Date so we have no expectations for the evening except to relax and be together. Anything else that happens is totally spontaneous and optional.”
Which do you prefer – showers or baths? Maybe you have your own private whirlpool. When you are just too tired, take your pick!
