The "spice up your date night" article is the most-written piece on the internet, and the least useful. Most of the suggestions assume you have not seen each other in a fortnight and are about to go on a first date. Here are six that work for couples who actually live together.
1. The full table
Cook the long meal you do not normally bother with. Three hours, courses, candles. Stay at the table after dessert, with another bottle. The point is the time, not the food.
2. The hotel room twenty minutes from home
Pick a room, not a destination. The change of room is the entire point. Pack the same way you would for a long weekend.
3. Read aloud
An hour, alternating chapters, of a book one of you has chosen. Sounds odd; isn't.
4. The slow undress
Dress on purpose. Spend half an hour on it. Then spend half an hour on the reverse.
5. A list each
Five things you would like to try, written privately, exchanged. Not negotiated tonight — just exchanged. Conversation comes later.
6. Nothing
Phones in another room. No film, no music. The room you live in, with the lights low. The most under-rated date in any catalogue.
The best date night is the one you do not have to advertise to yourselves as a date night.
