Life can get really busy so it’s important to take time out with your loved one and spend time with them. The challenge is that although we often might want to spend lots of time with our partner, it’s not always realistic with busy work schedules. Add kids to the mix, and next thing you know you haven’t seen your partner for over a week.
Spending time with your partner is an absolute must to maintain a healthy relationship, however, when time is against you it’s important to spend QUALITY TIME and not Quantity time with each other. In other words, I’d rather a couple spend 10 minutes of quality time each day than 2 hours of quantity time doing nothing intentional once a week. The couple who spends 2 hours a week together will not be as close as the couple who focuses on quality time for 10 minutes a day with each other. Yes, at some point you need to look at having quantity time together, however, if you’re in a very busy season of life, take the guilt away and spend quality time with your partner.
