Cheap Dates - Taking a trip down memory lane with your significant other

Aug 17th, 2007 by David Murphy-Colonna | 1 Comment

I’m no love doctor, but I think knowing about your significant other’s past is a very important part of having a relationship. Knowing someones’ past will help you better identify with their thoughts, needs, and the way they act. So here’s a little day date, that is not only cheap but will bring you closer to your special someone and hopefully help you to form a better relationship.

In order to get closer and get in touch with your mate’s past, on this fun date, take a drive or walk through you and your partner’s childhood neighborhoods and share a picnic type meal, at a local park or maybe even by or at your old house if your able to. Share stories about your childhood and past, in order to entertain each other. This can provide hours of interesting conversation as well as form a bond between you and your partner.
