If you're only putting out about once a month, the iPad is far more exciting than you are.
In my case, the one "putting out" once a month is the one using the iPad.
Fair enough. Then yes, the iPad needs to go.

You know that classic children's book by Margaret Wise called: -----> GOODNIGHT MOON ?
Well, I suggest you read, "Goodnight iPad."
It's hysterical. ;D

The condom joke is so true and so sad.

So funny that you are going to go out and take somebody else on a date.
Why not take the person sitting next to you on a date, why are you home and on the couch so much?

You could always watch porn together on the iPad.
Kidding aside, DW gets ready for bed when we put the kids to bed (8-ish), plays on her iPad for an hour or so and goes to sleep.
But consider yourself lucky - you're getting "intimacy" at 4x the rate I am. Our sex life is like the old joke:
A man walks into a drug store with his 11-year old son. They happen to walk by the condom display, and the boy asked, "What are these, Dad?
To which the man matter-of-factly replied, "Those are called condoms, son. Men use them when they have sex."
"Oh, ok," replied the boy. He looked over the display and picked up a package of 3 and asked, "Why are there 3 in this package?"
The dad replied, "Those are for high school boys, one For Friday, one for Saturday, and one for Sunday."
"Cool" said the boy. He noticed a 6 pack and asked, "Then who are these for?"
"Those are for college men," the dad answered, "TWO For Friday, TWO for Saturday, and TWO for Sunday."
"WOW!" exclaimed the boy, "then who uses THESE?" he asked, picking up a 12 pack. With a sigh and a tear in his eye, the dad replied,
"Those are for married men. One for January, one for February, one for March......."

Nope. We were spending too much time on devices, so I calmly talked to my spouse about it and asked if we could make dinner time and bed time "unplugged" times. We leave our phones in the kitchen, away from the table, during dinner and we put our phones in our nighstands at bed time and snuggle. If one of us falls asleep first, the other person is free to get on their device if they want, but we established boundaries.
Do you go to bed at the same time? Did you before the iPad?
It is vital not to have a blaming conversation or to start by saying "You do this, you do that." Start with something positive, like "I really enjoy our time together at night and have been missing it lately. What would you think about going 'unplugged' a few nights a week so we can spend some quality time together right before bed?"
