Have you ever invited your partner to take a walk, then ran out of things to talk about?
You start your walk with the usual, “HWYD” (How was your day). Then there’s family, responsibilities, work and the calendar of events.
After these are exhausted, silence reigns. The only sounds are from your shoes. Each has drifted into their own private world.
Here’s a simple Romantic Moment idea to change this.
Before heading out along the beach or just around the block, prepare two unexpected questions which go deeper and beyond HWYD. Something besides chores and bills.
For example, “What is your favorite memory of something we’ve done together?” Or “What would you like our future grandchildren to call you?”
Now listen. Let the conversation meander.
These questions can evoke laughter. Bring up good memories. And change a walk into a time for connecting.
What question would you like to ask on your next walk?
