Welcome to Spouse Dates! We are now open and so glad you are here!

My name is Steve Pare and I have been married to my lovely bride, Chrissy, since June 6th, 1992.  One of the reasons I started Spouse Dates was to help myself develop better dating habits.   I want to take my own marriage from good to great and I believe that dating well, as opposed to poorly or not at all, has the power to help me do that.

I desire to see Spouse Dates develop into a community of individuals who will join together and help eachother to cultivate a great marriage by dating their own spouse.  

I will be posting content weekly that relates to these five categories:

1. Why date?
2. How to date?
3. Date ideas.
4. Experts & Interviews.
5. Inspiring stories.

If you are interested in contributing content that inspires, encourages, and motivates and is related one of these categories I would love to hear from you! Check our Invitation to Write.

Thanks again for visiting.  Please subscribe to join our community and let us help you take your marriage from good to great, one date at a time!

Spouse Dates exists to help you cultivate a great marriage through the practice of dating your own spouse.

It is well known that dating your spouse is good for your marriage.  Social science studies show that regular dating improves communication, fun, romance, commitment and stress levels. 

So, why don’t all couples do it more often?   

Most couples want to.  Most couples fail to.  

Why?  

Life gets busy.  Schedules fill up.  Bills pile up.  Kids come along and need attention.  Time, money and energy are limited.  Priorities shift and dating takes a back seat.

Oftentimes it is good things that push dating out of the picture.  

But dating should not be out of the picture!  Nor should dating be in the back seat! 

Spouse Dates is here to inspire, encourage and motivate you to date your spouse well. 

• Do you want to date your spouse more?
• Do you want to fan that spark back into flame?
