One of my clients sent me an Email last week to tell me about her adventures with Naughty Nights card game. She and her husband had been struggling to keep the romance alive in their marriage with four kids under 5 and him working overtime to make ends meet.
There just never seemed to be enough time or energy for "Our Time."
She, I'll call her Janice, bought the card game Naughty Nights at a recent party to help with creating time and setting the mood for the two of them as a couple. Janice wanted what we all want, just a little romance and fun to balance the efforts of life.
They each choose a card and then surprised the other one night a week. This left them with two nights a week for Our Time and a little love.
This particular week Janice's card was to create a romantic evening on the living room floor. She had decided on a night time picnic. There were candles, flowers scattered around, his favorite mood music, a soft blanket on the floor with the furniture moved out of the way. The kids were at her mother's house for the night. She had wine, cheeses, exotic breads, crackers and fruit along with other delectable eatables. A lovely evening that both enjoyed tremendously. This was on Tuesday night.
And Then!!! She believed he let her down and forgot his night.
They choose new cards each week on Sunday nights and had a week to carry out the directions.
Friday night came and went and her husband, Johnny, had not mentioned a thing.
How could he forget.
Saturday morning and Johnny got up early to clean the garage out. He worked all day out in the garage. Janice became angrier as the day went on and Johnny remained in the garage. At lunch, she asked what he was doing and his answer was "just cleaning up a little."
Saturday night she was finishing the kitchen, the kids were in bed and Johnny called to her to come look at the garage. She took off her gloves, threw them down and stormed to the garage door to give Johnny a little piece of her mind.
And Then.............She opened the door to the garage......
She opened the door and inside the garage were rose petals on the floor, romantic music playing, candles lit, champagne on the car, etc. He turned and looked at her and said;
"I drew a card that said to make love in the car.
I struggled all week to find a babysitter, the girls up the street are sick, your mom is out-of-town. I am so sorry but this is all I could do."
Now, I know the premise of that card was to drive on a dirt road and make out, but he did with that card what he could. And what he did was better than the card.
She said it was a moment when she KNEW that he was committed to working things out in their relationship and trying to find that spark once again.
These cards provide some naughty and nice ideas to spice up your relationship.
Don't we all need some ideas from time to time?
Plus, it’s the perfect inexpensive gift, and they will thank you 52 weeks a year!
