Never Stop Dating Your Significant Other with the 2-2-2 Rule

It’s easy to become complacent in a long-term relationship. If you need a little help keeping the romance alive, follow this rule to keep regular dates.

For lots of people, the best way to keep a relationship thriving is “never stop dating.” Redditor ckernan2 came up with a great rule to keep him in check:

On our wedding night, I told my wife that we now had a 2/2/2 rule. It goes like this:

• Every 2 weeks, we go out for the evening.
• Every 2 months, we go out for the weekend.
• Every 2 years, we go out for a week.

We’ve stuck to it, and it really has made things awesome. We got married in August and people still ask how long our honeymoon phase will last. I think it’ll last as long as we stick to our 2’s.

Of course you don’t have to be militant about it, but it’s a good guideline to keep in the back of your mind. If it’s been a month since you two had a proper date (and you both enjoy going out), it might be time to play catch-up.
