Excitment

How does one pledge to keep dating after having been married for almost a decade. couple of kids, demanding jobs, traffic and frankly not too many entertainment options in this Lagos??

It is hard o! My husband and I recently decided to try and have some type of date every week to try and keep things interesting. Apart from watching movies or spending loads of money eating out there isn't much to do for fun. Imagine if there was a Nigerian version of ticketmaster.com? where you could actually find out about concerts and plays?

Most of my other married friends with kids just smile and nod and say you don't have problems when I tell them about my husbands' and I's challenges finding fun things to do on our weekly dates.

So what happens that we stop dating? Is it just too much effort? costs too much money?we cant be bothered? Shebi it was dating that got you to know each other in the first place to want to get married? To be honest for some of us our kids are free comedy :)

After watching soo many movies and eating way too much sugar popcorn its time to find something else to do for fun.
