Last night me and DP had some alone time for the first time in ages. Nothing "like that" 🙈 once our beautiful kids were in bed and settled we snuggled on the couch under a throw and we put down our phones and watched a film. It was so nice. We're still so in love, even after 8 years but we're just not as fixated on each other anymore in that sense, in the new stages of our relationship, we'd spend every night together, relaxing and talking. We rarely have time together like that anymore, there's always a phone in front of one of us, kids, work, anxiety, endometriosis, life in general. Last night it made me realise, we need to try harder, we need to focus on us a bit more. I definately need to try harder. I've got a gem in him, through thick and thin and definately in sickness he's been amazing, working a million hours and still coming home to take of me and our darling children. I want to do something once a week, something for us two. Something to give us our time. I'm after some suggestions, of ideas. I can get a sitter maybe once a month but I want some ideas of nice things to do that we can both appreciate. Also any nice romantic hotels/B&Bs or lodges etc with amazing views in the northwest/north of the UK please x
