Go on “man dates.” He tells us not to make it weird, to mix activity with real conversations, and to do it often. For me this looks like working out or shooting hoops with a friend or two but leaving enough time to have a conversation about what’s really going on in our lives. This becomes increasingly more difficult as you have kids, but like a marriage, our friendships need watering too. Even if it’s just talking a bit while we are stretching—yes, fellas, please stretch, because no one likes an injured weekend warrior.
