What NOT to do in a relationship....
Don't lose who YOU are in who you are together. Have separate interests and activities and SOMEONE who understands, appreciates, and RESPECTS this.
Don't CHANGE who you are for that person. Don't be someone you are not or cannot be/become. We all strive to be the best versions of ourselves, but stay the natural course of your life. Row your own boat and hope they are on the same route and not prone to seasickness. ... But be willing to hold her hair out of the way and rub her back if she is. |
....
...to get in one when your not ready!
I've been patient...waited...looked at me! My time is coming. |
Don't forget to listen with your heart.
|
Don't forget your own worth!
|
Because without trust, you've got nothing ...
Never use sensitive issues, thoughts or ideas that have been shared in an intimate and trusting venue, against the sharer. It's awful, and will surely make one party feel emotionally unsafe. And, if that happens, all bets are off (the relationship too).

Don't be a dick! :fastdraq:

Don't assume. Give the other person the opportunity to show you who they are.

Folks -
We are getting reports about some of the language being used in here. Can we please dispense with the "douchebags" and "dicks"? Here is the thing about language on this website: Cursing is fine, but we need folks to be a lot more thoughtful about using gendered language. This thread has HUGE potential to be used for negativity so folks need to be super careful about what they post. I dont want to see this thread shut down. Thanks |
Do not.....take them for granted or treat them as "less than".
Do not......miss an opportunity to tell them how you feel, or even give them a compliment or a positive affirmation. |
Remember to use your best manners... it shows respect to others...
to be helpful ... it shows a caring nature ... to be forgiving... it shows you know how to spend your time together.... together |
Never text serious conversations.
|
Don't ignore your intuition.

Don't stop saying "I love you"

don't forget to say you are sorry ~

Use your words.
Never use the phrase "I'm fine".
When you say it, you're rarely 'fine'. So, why not speak the truth. Tell your lover exactly what you're feeling. They're (most likely) not a mind reader. And, when you use 'fine', in my estimation, you're simply saying go to hell or something a bit more unsavory ... |
Don't lose yourself. If your partner can't appreciate who you are, keep it moving.:)
|
Don't lose sight of your limits. Don't be unclear when expressing them. Do not fault someone for pushing them too firmly if they've not been clearly delineated. (All of this presumes you know your limits and does not speak to those limits that sometimes spring up and punch us in the neck sans warning.)
