off the top of my head , and im not saying all these are things im interested in , but examples are : hiking , going out to dinner at nice restaurants and talking about the food as you eat it , church activities if you are religious , going to sports events together and rooting for a team or an athlete , gardening together and then sitting in the garden with a glass of wine and enjoying the flowers you grew , reading in bed at night , paying attention to politics and supporting political causes .
