Growing Deeper In Love by Focusing on Quality Time
Time. It’s free, yet priceless. It is something you can’t keep but you can sure spend it! However, once you have lost it, it is impossible to get back. There is only one thing that can be MORE precious than time. That is, the one we spend our time with!
Since time is SO precious and valuable, giving your time to someone is what makes them KNOW they are important to you! Some things just TAKE your time. For example, cooking, cleaning, your job, etc. What you choose to do with the rest of your time is all part of prioritizing. Your spouse or significant other should be TOP on that priority list. Here are some ways my husband and I make sure we make time to spend with each other.
Put It On the Calendar
For the longest time, I really felt like if I had to be “a mark on the calendar”, that I wasn’t very important! Then, I started realizing all the things that I FELT were more important to my husband were also on his calendar, I realized that being on the calendar is a GOOD THING! We make sure we plan ahead, even though sometimes we do spontaneous date nights as well. If you plan ahead, you are much less likely to not get too booked up with other obligations!
Shut Phones Off
This can be so difficult in today’s society. Everyone expects that if they try to get in touch with you, that you are readily available! Quality time is NOT sitting side by side both on different devices. That is more like existing together… your time is focused on your phone, not your loved one!
Don’t Base Quality Time on Finances
Being tight on money is NO reason to give up your quality time. Quality time can be right inside your own home without going out to eat or to a movie. You could go to a park, play games or even just sit out on the back porch to talk. You can’t BUY time… so don’t base quality time on how much money you have to spend!
Easy On Eyes, Time Is Visible At A Glance.
Plan Ahead – Make It Special
Add some thought into your special time with your spouse. If you put time into making it extra special… it will be! When your loved on sees you making such a valiant effort to make sure your time is extra special, they will KNOW they are your top priority!
Hold Yourself Accountable With Your Time
Since you are the ONLY one who can decide how to spend your time, make sure you are disciplined enough to keep track of your time. If you see that you will have a few extra minutes during the day to get something done to assure extra quality time with your spouse, then do it. Time management is so important. If you become lazy with your time, you will find yourself never investing true quality time with the ones you love most!
Keep Up With Your Time
Don’t let time slip away and DON’T be LATE! Wearing a watch while out with your spouse will eliminate a quick glance at your phone turning into returning texts, scrolling on social media, and doing similar “virtual” things. Check out this watch by Konifer!

That is a really lovely watch.
That is a really nice wristwatch, I love the style. My husband would probably like this one so I will check it out. Thanks for the tips.
It really is important to shut away from the electronic world and enjoy time with your loved one. As travel bloggers we are always on our laptops or phones but we try and take breaks as much as we can. Usually going for a hike
Oooo now that is one fabulous watch! I don’t own a wooden one so I might just have to add one to my watch collection
I super agree on the shutting off the phones. Indeed quality time is not just being together but you need some effort.OUt away the phones that will distract you to each other.
Quality time with my husband is having brunch together everyday. We sit and talk about anything and everything. Of course, no gadgets allowed. 🙂 Giving each other our full attention is a must, even for only a few moments everyday.
That is a beautiful time piece. I may consider getting one for my husband on Father’s day. My husband and I do take vacations but not that often, because of course, there are more important things to save up for, like retirement, for one. Quality time for us is binge watching on the weekend.
Those are such beautiful watches. I just wish that the metal in the watch, band or otherwise didn’t irritate my skin so much. Ah well.
At our house .. every evening we light a candle and sit down for dinner together. It’s a time I look forward to the most in my days. The tip about shutting our phones off is spot on. It’s so nice to sit with him and not worry about who sent that text .. etc
This watch is gorgeous!! I love the wood and all of the detail!!
I think this post pushed me over the edge. I love these wooden watches – and now I want this one. They look incredibly elegant and can go from day to night.
I have been seeing a lot of these wood watches and love them. Love the black and brown on this watch.
Quality time is super importa to every relationship; especially if you want it to lastnt. Great when you can dedicate time to each other and enjoy it.
That watch is so hip! I love watches like this that are made out of wood. It looks so stylish.
This is such a great post having time away is a must we are all so reliant on technology we do need to take a step back from time to time.
That watch is absolutely amazing as well.
Quality time is not about money you’re so right. These watches are something my hubby would love tho. Maybe for his anniversary gift?
That looks like such a classy watch! It’s like you’re dressing up your arm for going out for evening on the town. What a beautiful watch.
It’s so important to make sure that carving out time with your partner is a priority! And what a beautiful watch!
Shutting phones off is one of our family rules, especially around the dinner table. Nothing is that important that it can’t wait until after meal time. We’re all so busy that it gets hard to focus and have one on one time with one another unless we make a big effort.
My husband and I try to make sure that we are either eating dinner together every night. Or at least walking the dog together at night.
