The 30 Day Love Challenge, Day by Day

Day 1: Favorite Things Questionnaire & Love Quest Survey

Day 2: Sexy Survey

Take a playful, flirty survey to figure out exactly what your spouse craves. Fill out the printable questionnaire about your intimate likes and wishes, then trade answers for a fun, revealing night in.

Day 3: Flirty Love Texts

Send your spouse a fun, flirty text today — no printable needed, just your phone. Pick whichever of these five love-language-inspired messages fits your sweetheart best:

  • Words of affirmation: Send ten texts through the day, each one naming a different reason you love them.
  • Gifts: Hide a little treat in their car or bag, then text a clue to go find it.
  • Quality time: Text a “coupon” good for one hour of uninterrupted time together, no phones or distractions.
  • Acts of service: Message them first thing offering to take one thing off their plate today.
  • Physical touch: Send a flirty “pick a number/color” game that hints at what’s waiting for them tonight.
Day 4: Netflix Binge Date

Set up a cozy Netflix binge date with your sweetheart. Pick a series you’re both into, pile up the snacks, and between episodes trade conversation-starter questions to keep the connection going. No prep beyond the remote and a blanket.

Day 5: Favorite Drink & a Love Note

Surprise your sweetie with their favorite drink — a slushie, soda, coffee, or milkshake — and attach a quick love note. The free printable has a tag to match every kind of drink, so it takes about five minutes.
