It’s the time of year when you might be starting to see couples everywhere. Every year, Halloween is often the launch event for those who just started dating, or an opportunity for longer term relationships to remind everyone else they’re still together. 

“What are we going to wear?” “Should we have a matching costume, or is that overkill?” “Should we do a group costume with other people to attract less attention?” These questions are just a few you might have this year as you plan — and maybe overthink — the scary holiday with your significant other.
