Don't be thier option while making them a priority

BullDog 04-14-2011 10:37 PM

Don't go around referring to someone as your partner if you don't really mean it.

Soft*Silver 04-14-2011 10:59 PM

dontcha even THINK I am getting fat if you are busting out of your own granny panties....

Hey Y'all,

Just a reminder about posting in this thread (and this isn't necessarily directed at any of the recent posters, although it certainly applies to everyone)- We need to keep things very general in here, especially if you are currently dating or have dated anyone who is a member of this site. We wouldn't want any ugly feelings for anyone here - So please consider when posting, if you wouldn't want it said about you, don't post it.

Remember, don't poke at or pick at your exes here! (unless you want a little vacation ;) )

Thanks all,
Admin

Don't go into the relationship thinking " I can change this or that" . For Goddess sake. You fell in love with them for who they are (positives and negatives) NOT for what you think they should be.

Note to self
 
Don't EVER EVER turn your head from your "joyful ministrations" when you hear the crack of a well hit baseball during a game in the world series. Nope don't ever do that <again>. :canadian::nerd::shocking:

Guy 05-06-2011 08:45 PM

Don't assume the worst, and secondly, just don't assume

Chazz 05-07-2011 03:30 PM

Don't sell her blood without telling her.

Daktari 05-07-2011 03:58 PM

Don't, whatever you do, decant lube from that industrial sized bottle into a smaller one that looks exactly like the bottle of antiseptic handwash that also lives on the bedside table...She really won't thank you! :blink:

Miss Scarlett 05-07-2011 03:59 PM

Do not allow yourself to be treated like an ATM...

Guy 11-19-2011 10:07 PM

Don't create a relationship with winners and losers. Relationships are between winners who seek answers to problems together.

RNguy 11-19-2011 10:20 PM

wise advice
 
Seeing this thread reminds me of this what not to do in a relationship : don't take your love for your spouse , partner , significant other what have it , really, anyone that you love in general for granted because you never know when that person will leave this world. I say this as a trauma nurse that witnesses the reality of watching my patients loved ones stand over them and grieve and I hear this a lot " I should have ..... Or if only I didn't ..... Or said..... " it is sad to watch but also hits the heart as a reminder ....... Peace , RNguy

*Don't pick yer nose n eat it. ________In front of her.

*sex is easy, relationships are icebergs, and they roll over

*glass 1/2 full ~ 1/2 empty.

I'm not real good at the do's n dont's


girl_dee 11-20-2011 06:12 AM

Don't lose each other.

Lazy Daze 11-20-2011 08:13 AM

Don't let your past relationships get in the way of the present

Don't let the little things ruin your relationship, and remember its ALL little things

Don't forget to laugh together

Don't forget to say I love you

Gemme 11-20-2011 12:37 PM

Don't critcize your partner's driving while you are in the car.

:eyebrow:

VintageFemme 11-20-2011 12:43 PM

I'm single for a reason. *insert chagrin here* So I'm taking really good notes from this thread!

Thanks y'all! ;)

Guy 11-20-2011 10:27 PM

Stay with the topic

Don’t use a current concern as a reason to jump into everything that bothers you.

Miss July 11-21-2011 01:59 PM

Don't EVER be some one's door mat to just lay down & take their crap.

SoNotHer 11-21-2011 03:23 PM

Don't make someone feel like a "placer holder" or "person of interest - at the moment." Better yet, don't date someone you know is a "place holder."

Don't ask for something you are not prepared to give in full measure.

And most importantly, don't say one thing and do another.

tazz 11-21-2011 03:33 PM

Don't lose yourself in a relationship.

CockyDude 11-21-2011 08:06 PM

Excellent points

All very well said. Thank you.

Do Not answer your phone while in bed!!!

Miss July 11-22-2011 10:02 AM

Just a few that come to mind for me........
 
~ Don't stop communicating
~ Don't stop being open to compromise
~ Don't ASSume you know what the other is thinking
~ Don't stop being able to forgive
~ Don't stop smelling the roses & appreciating the small things
~ Don't stop respecting each other & thier opinions

LOL! This reminds me an ex hated, Hated when I burped - loudly too! I got the kids going and she didn't appreciate it. A lady likes to be treated with respect no matter how comfortable you get in a relationship or how long you been together. Every now and then I let it slip in front of girl friends or whatever and I have to say I'm sorry! :seeingstars:

Elijah 11-22-2011 10:14 PM

*Do not doom a relationship with inappropriate expectations.

*Do not try and change the person, if you want a Toyota, don't buy a Jeep and resent it for being a Jeep.

*Do not suck the life out of your partner, give space and freedom.

Along with answering the phone while in bed...I once had someone once answer a text while we were in bed - from someone that was an ex or so I was told at the time...not good!

Geeeezers ..... thats bad....

Don't expect more out of me, than you are willing to invest of yourself.

FemmeBibliophile 10-20-2012 06:48 AM

  • Don't go to bed angry. If someone is sleeping on the couch, it's bad.
  • Don't forget to tell someone what they mean to you. Just because they know doesn't mean they don't want to hear it.
  • Don't walk into a relationship expecting the other person to change for you.
  • Do not compare the things they do to how an ex did them.
  • Do not answer the phone in bed/while snuggling unless you're on call.
  • If all you're doing is settling, get out now.
  • Do not keep your ex on speed dial, and update them on every aspect of your life.
  • Don't let them treat your animals cruelty. If they aren't nice to them... How do you think they are really going to treat you?
  • Don't always bring up negatives. Once something is done and over, leave it done. Constantly throwing it back up isn't going to make things better.
  • Don't cheat. Emotional cheating is just as bad as physical cheating.

Prudence 10-20-2012 06:51 AM

Fight fair. No hitting below the belt.

That whole honey moon phase going away thing. *I* don't get why it has to and why it would.

I mean you are the same people, why does it go away? Why?

Why would you want it to?

This!!!!!!!

cinnamongrrl 10-20-2012 07:35 AM

Do not change to suit their needs......and don't expect them to change for yours...

Do not lose yourself in them.....if it ends you will find it that much harder to get back to yourself...

Do not forsake your friends and/or family for anyone...that's the first sign of control issues....

Do not anticipate them being just like "everyone else". They are themselves and are not the ones that hurt you in the past....

Do not forget to tell them you love them....every single day.....

Yes, hell yes, to this right here.

People who love you and care about you don't try to isolate you.....they want you to have a connection and time with your family and friends.

Anyone who wants to isolate you from your family, your friends, or your community does not have your best interests at heart.

Have I told u today I LOVE U??? If not u do very much

Darbonaire 10-20-2012 08:16 AM

Don't....
 
Be afraid to ask questions before making life changing decisions

Be willing to move somewhere you dislike to please someone else.

Give up your own needs trying to get them from the other person.

Allow the other person to assume they "know" you...they most likely do not know who you truly are, & don't assume you know them.

Lie about anything...not who you are, what you want, what's important to you, what IS ok & what isn't...but mainly don't ever lie to yourself.

My favorite saying is: If it never got any better than it is RIGHT now.....is it good enough? If you can't answer yes....then you better be examining why & making some decisions for yourself...cause, NOW is all any of us truly have.

Let me quote the pompous doctor in Terms of Endearment, as he breaks the bad news to Shirley MacLaine that her daughter is dying:

"Expect the best, but prepare for the worst."

Just kidding.

Carry on.
