What TO DO in a relationship.....

[scootebaby]

rub her feet--even tho you have a thing about feet-because it helps her!

thank her often for all she does for you

do something for no reason at all!

[IrishGrrl]

Cook dinner
Massages after a long hard day
Clean and wash her car
Bring home wild flowers you picked on the side of the road.
Fuck her well, and often.
Dont stop when she says she cant again, there is always one more in there.
Bring her coffee
Wash her hair
Tell her how beautiful she is when she wakes up in the morning, and then show her.
Smile and be proud of her when she is on your arm. Even when you are at home depot together, covered in dirt..picking up last minute supplies you ran out of while planting a garden.
Put air in her tires, and check the oil.
Take her out on surprise picnics.
Never wait for the perfect moment to tell her how you feel. Say it when you feel it, dont hold it in.
Give her white and red roses, the symbols for purity and love.
Hold her hair back while she is throwing up from the flu.
Bring her chocolates, and a heating pad when she has cramps and PMS, also, just say, yes baby..to anything she says during that time.
Listen to every lyric, to every song she posts..she may be talking to you.
Protect her, keep her safe.
Spank her ass when she needs it.
Let her spank yours if she needs it.

...enjoy and take time for frequent family-centered dinners, at a real dinner table... away from the TV, computers and other such devices.
Even if it's a dinner for two, or just "pizza night"... sit at a dinner table and take time to be together without distractions, enjoy eachother's company and lots of laughter...or a serious talk where you give the other your undivided attention... at a real dinner table.

For years while raising my son, because we were always so busy or were distracted by TV or video games, I neglected the family dinner time....
Until his grandparents reminded me of the importance of and special communications that can happen while at a real dinner table... and it reminded me of how many special memories I have of my great-gramma while at her table. In a relationship, I think the special time spent at a dinner or breakfast table is very important and very healthy.

And it's fun to make special traditions for dinner time.... like my son's favorite that was passed down from my great-grampa..."Have dessert first; how else would you have room for it." ...I love to see people's expressions when I occasionally pull that one on them. Or, the old fashioned "pass and break the bread" at the beginning of a meal (that's one of my favorites). Dinner table traditions are a fun thing to do and opens up the door for laughter and relaxation.

I believe the things that can happen and the open communication that flows at a dinner table can really strengthen bonds in a relationship.... it also shows you are willing to MAKE time out of your busy day for the other person or family members....

I love my beautiful dinner table NOT because it is a 100 year old hand carved, honey stained solid oak with beautiful round top and "hand turned" legs, with 4 very beautiful "wheat back" solid oak comfortable chairs...but because of the many special times and memories with family and loved ones.

I COMPLETELY agree and admit I allowed this to interfere in past relationships. I wanted so badly uninterrupted US space while we enjoyed a meal together. Computers and tv were more important I have that now (we don't even have a TV yay!) and I treasure it every single night.

just sit around and TALK.

[bigbutchmistie]

For Me

Communicate about everything. Leave nothing out. Never hide anything from your partner. A white lie is still a lie. It still will be found out and it still stings and causes so much devastation to a relationship. White Lies are termites lol

Romance. Flowers candles foot rubs body rubs bubble baths washing her hair and the little things just to name a few show how much one cares

Affection. Just holding hands a hug from behind as she cooks for you holding her while she sleeps these are just a few ways to be affectionate but go so far

Loyalty. Stand by your partners side even if you think they are wrong. Always present a united front

Honesty Always be.totally honest

Trust. Trust your partner with every fiber of your being. If you can't trust them work it out or leave. Without trust there is nothing.

Always Date. This will keep your relationship refreshed. And you will remember why you fell in love to start with.

play, have fun, joke around. Life is much less stressful when you don't take everything so seriously.

thought of another to do........If you are feeling like a night in shining armor or whatever you call a femme in shining armor. Jump on your horse and ride off into the sunset....come back and try it again when your armor is a little tarnished.

[Venus007]

When faced with assuming an action or word is malicious or just stupidly thoughtless or what have you, assume the best.

Remember your paramour is not perfect and is a flawed, failing, wonderful human being, just like you are.

Change is hard and it takes time. If you and your honey bunny are trying to change patterns that started in either of your childhoods or wherever in life, mistakes will be made, don't freak. Pick yourself up, dust off and start again, with consistent dedicated work you will see change, however, it is not instant.

[MsTinkerbelly]

Make sure every minute of every day that the person you have chosen to spend your life with knows how very loved they are.

Touch.....
