Tom’s been married for 26 years and still shows up for his wife like they just matched on Bumble. Meanwhile, I’ve been with my fiancé Justin for one year, and let me tell you, making a relationship feel fresh takes work. And sometimes window wars at a B&B with screaming guinea hens. In this episode of Real and Raw Relationships Unfiltered, I sit down with Tom, a husband of over two decades, to talk about what it really takes to keep dating your partner long after the honeymoon phase fades. We talk about: ✔ Why “date night” is more than just a calendar notification ✔ The intentional moments that keep relationships from dying of boredom ✔ What men actually need to feel emotionally connected ✔ How Justin and I spent our anniversary learning to be present, vulnerable, and romantic even when the A/C is locked at 75 and you can’t raid the fridge past 10 PM This one is packed with laughs, real stories, and the uncomfortable truths about why so many people stop showing up in their relationships.
