Channing Frye’s Idea Of A Hot Date : The Batting Cage
Though I’ve enjoyed Channing Frye’s blog previously, when it comes to Agony Aunts, I’ll stick to Dan Savage, thanks.
Hey, I don’t know how it is for guys with 9-5 regular jobs to deal with their girlfriends, but since I’ve been in this relationship (which has been some of the best months of my life) I’ve discovered something that has really kept the both of us sane: DATE NIGHT.
Holy crap, guys. It’s like holy water when the women start acting like attention vampires, which they do (and y’all still look cute when you get grumpy). It seriously is the best. One night a week go to a movie. Go do something with them. Go carts, batting cage; whatever she’s into or the both of y’all can do together. Even dinner somewhere new.
Man, look, then whenever something goes wrong, just bring up the date night. Be like, “Baby, we had such a good DATE NIGHT. Let’s just not argue.”
I don’t know what it does. It’s like coolant to a radioactive bomb.
