I’ll admit it – a lot of the date ideas I come up with are activities I really want to do. Usually we have a great time together but I know there are certain things Mr. Layland would prefer to do that I wouldn’t voluntarily plan. I decided to create a date night all about Mr. Layland and things he loves doing!

For whatever reason I have never…ever ever ever ever enjoyed playing Monopoly. I used to play with my brother when we were kids and I hated it then! Probably because I knew no matter what I would lose. Not much has changed.

Mr. Layland loves playing Monopoly so I decided to suck it up and initiate a game of Monopoly. He was understandably surprised and excited 🙂 His favorite show is Friends and I honestly don’t mind it so I suggested we watch a few episodes. We had a great time, I laughed, and Mr. Layland was very happy!

This idea doesn’t take a lot of planning – just pick one or two things that you know your significant other enjoys and offer to do it together!
