Rubina Dilaik, who recently welcomed twins Jeeva and Edha, enjoyed a bike date with her husband Abhinav Shukla in her hometown of Shimla. The biking vlog, which has garnered over three lakh views, shows the couple enjoying a ride against the picturesque backdrop of the hills as they stop to indulge in local chaat. “I enjoyed this short adventure,” the mother of two said in the video.

The couple’s video highlights the importance of spending quality time with our partners to keep the relationship spark alive. Arouba Kabir, emotional and mental health professional and founder of Enso Wellness, agrees and emphasizes the significance of choosing and enjoying such escapades with your partner. These activities play a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing the health and happiness of a relationship.

Why Small Dates Are Important

Recharging and Relaxation

According to Arouba, dedicated time together allows

individuals to recharge, relax, and focus on themselves rather than their responsibilities, families, and children. It provides an opportunity for self-care, personal reflection, and a break from the routine of daily life. This time apart can ultimately bring a sense of rejuvenation and help strengthen the bond between partners.

Strengthening the Bond

Engaging in spontaneous and small activities together helps build and create happy memories. “Spending quality time with a partner where we are not discussing issues and challenges of life but enjoying the moment and the company helps build a stronger bond,” said Arouba.

Breaking the Boredom

We all have routines, whether at home, office, or with social responsibilities. Such small escapades allow us to break that monotony, bringing excitement and curiosity to the relationship.

Enhancing Communication

At home, we often have various conversations that can sometimes become difficult. According to Arouba, going out for small escapades in informal settings creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can open up and have honest communications with your partner.

“I sometimes come across clients who tell me they had an intense conversation at a chaat stand, something they never expected from their partner,” shared Arouba.

Conclusion

Rubina and Abhinav’s bike date serves as a reminder of the importance of carving out time for small,

spontaneous moments with your partner. These experiences not only enhance the quality of your relationship but also create lasting memories and strengthen your emotional connection. So, whether it’s a bike ride through the hills or a simple chat over local chaat, taking time for each other is key to a happy and healthy relationship.
