intentionality in relationships

This note last modified September 1, 2024

When you are around your partner, you have fun, and you talk about issues, but these random spots of togetherness aren’t a replacement for intentionally creating spaces for fun and seriousness.

  • A week’s worth of “let’s watch an episode of TV before going to bed” doesn’t make up for a concrete date night where the goal is to be together and relax
  • A week’s worth of serious pillow talks is not enough to make up for a space where you sit down and talk about the issues in the relationship and think about compromises / ways to move forward.

Though what the fuck do I know honestly
