Even if it's a dinner for two, or just "pizza night"... sit at a dinner table and take time to be together without distractions, enjoy eachother's company and lots of laughter...or a serious talk where you give the other your undivided attention... at a real dinner table.

For years while raising my son, because we were always so busy or were distracted by TV or video games, I neglected the family dinner time....
Until his grandparents reminded me of the importance of and special communications that can happen while at a real dinner table... and it reminded me of how many special memories I have of my great-gramma while at her table. In a relationship, I think the special time spent at a dinner or breakfast table is very important and very healthy.

I COMPLETELY agree and admit I allowed this to interfere in past relationships. I wanted so badly uninterrupted US space while we enjoyed a meal together. Computers and tv were more important I have that now (we don't even have a TV yay!) and I treasure it every single night.
