I cannot relate to the poor economy and I am single right now so I cannot relate to dealing with it with a partner, but I would think hypothetically, two people can take part in many activities that do not cost any money or cost little money (depending on where they live). I live in South Jersey and there are many historic sites and parks in the area. People can go somewhere new literally everyday for weeks if not months.

Dating relationships should not be affected at all by the economy ...if they are, one of you is too concerned with the financial aspects of it. As Michael said, there are a million things that two people can do to stay connected and get to know each other without spending alot - or any - money.

Marriages, on the other hand, are a bit tougher and require some clever solutions often times. There are still a million things to do with each other that costs little or no money ...but the general stress of financial obligations can be overwhelming. A good and strict budget can often overcome most of this ...but, often times, it requires a significant amount of compromise and sacrifice.
