Here goes. Everyday you spend with the love of your life will not be lovely. There are arguments, sometimes you have 2 stubborn people refusing to admit fault. That foolish pride wrecks many a relationships. Not saying what you want from someone can also cause the union to go down hill. Open your mouth sweetheart as a wise blogger once said ” Closed mouths don’t get fed.” How can someone satisfy you, if they don’t have a clue as to what you want.
Complaining does nothing but make you look like a crazy lady that keeps going back to the unhappy place you just said you can’t take anymore of. Yep, that’s what you said!
What can you do to start living a life of love more often?
Communicate: Not scream. Tell your partner what you need. Let them know what makes you happy. I’m you believe that because you spend so much time with your hunny he knows. No sweetie, you better speak now or forever hold your anger. (We know that’s not going to happen.)
Show them what you want: The best way to communicate is to show your partner what you want. Treat him to a nice dinner, card and little gift. Nothing fancy, just a simple I appreciate you. That’s what you want right? A whole lot of small appreciation (BIG appreciations every now and then too)
Point out what’s good: It’s so easy to say what someone is doing wrong. It may take a little effort and thought but compliment all the things he does right. Women have become very strong, guarded even with our feelings. It’s ok to let that guard down to say “Baby, You make some great hamburger helper.” or “You’re really good at math can you help the kids.” Happy women everywhere agree that stroking a man’s ego is the best way keep him happy (And get what you want 😉
