Sure. A date night is when you go out and have fun with the person you married, so you can both remember why you fell in love. You get away from the screaming kids, the bills, the diapers, the yapping dog, the needed repairs staring you in the face, the relatives, all the usual distracting things that keep husbands and wives from talking intimately, having fun, being 18 and in love again. Both of you have a chance to get cleaned up and remind the other how attractive they can be.
Then you boink until your ears bleed.
Date nights can be very useful, especially when a marriage is challenged by overwork, conflicting schedules, etc.
Reestablishing the original connection is correct.
You have a way with words.
p.s. You're not supposed to grab her by the ears.
