How often do you go on a date with your partner after marriage?

You caught me there. This is one thing that we care little about now that we have three kids,what with all the expenses and time constraints that they brought when they came into this world. Not that we don't spend quality time together. We try to create such time not only for ourselves but together with the children. But we do this mostly at home, where of course, we don't spend money for, except when we have to order pizza or burger delivery. However, the only times we have gone out together, the wife and I, in recent times was to go to Starbucks on our 10th wedding anniversary, just for morning coffee. The last movie we saw but with the kids, was "Cars", which was more than a year ago, I think. The last one that the two of us saw, was I think, "Titanic", which was like 10 years ago. Thanks for this discussion, it's actually a wake up call for me, I will think about asking my wife to go out more often.

we have been married for almost two years now and unfortunately there's just no time to go out on dates. he works seven days a week and if he has a day off we'd rather spend it at home and spend some time with our daughter. when he's more stable we plan to take a long vacation. that's overdue i think. on my part, i get bored staying home sometimes. i miss spending time outside. so hopefully we could do that soon.

we go out for dinner about once a week and we really enjoy this time together. We are in a different environment and see people all around us and we like it.

We've been married for almost 10 years now. Got 2 kids, and we're dating 2-4 times a month. We seldom see movies but we're able to have lunches outside.

yes, of course still do. We're spoiling ourselves if we have time because we know it's hard to do the same once we have kids.

I have not get married,but I hope after marriage we can have the same life as now.we can go to see movie or do shopping together,love each other so much,have a chat everyday ,hug and kiss each other before going out to work no matter how busy that day!

Once the children come along only as often as you can manage and afford. I've had a good life, that way.

Not that often at all. But that is also because we have seven children and not that much time or money to spare. Or at least, that is what he says. LOL But I am sure that as the children grow older, we will have more time and money. So, hopefully, with time and patience, it will change. Good for you and your wife setting aside time to go on little dates. I am sure it feels good that you get to spend some quality time with each other. :)

We used to go out on a daily basis, whomever gets off to work early will be the one to wait up on a pre-planned location. But having been married for almost 14 years now & with two kids, it really gets down to just a couple in a week & sometimes none at all. We seem to prefer now to the comfort at home & since we were both attending to the business we have now. I do very much look forward to the times when we are able to do dates. Sometimes just to compensate we take vacations that lasts 2 to a week, sometimes just the two of us or one of our kids.

When we first got married, my husband and I would go out on dates at least 3-4 times per week. Now we have a child and we don't like leaving him with someone else, so our "dates" are now family outings. It's nice, but I still sometimes wish for a DATE with him. Who knows, maybe one day when my son can stand up for himself.

we are 10 months married now. But after were married we just have a two dates. I think its not actually a date, we just had to buy something for our baby. We dont eat outside because of waste of money. I think the answer to the question is not at all.
