Stay Together When Apart

This evening, I went alone to our favorite restaurant, Moutarde, in Park Slope. But even though we were apart, I felt Rueben's presence. It wasn't as exciting a dining experience as Sarah Palin and Donald Trump, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. In my book, 35 Ways to Marry the Man of Your Dreams, one of the things I emphasize is the importance of having a full and busy life apart from the relationship. And I do. But it is also great to have a sense of being connected to your partner, even when you are alone.
