Create a ritual around a shared errand

Add a small enjoyable stop without making the errand much longer.

Try this

  1. Keep the essential errand’s timing and workload visible before adding an enjoyable stop.
  2. Ask at the relevant moment whether the extra still fits. Do not buy or book the addition as if the person already agreed.

A worked example

“After groceries, we could sit outside for one drink.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

Keep the extra stop optional when either person needs to go straight home.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
